Fig. 3: Inorganic and organic geochemical records from the Mossy Grove Core (MGC) in the depth domain.
From: Multi-proxy evidence for sea level fall at the onset of the Eocene-Oligocene transition
a Total organic carbon87. b Carbonate fine-fraction ( <20 µm) δ13C and δ18O and (c) benthic foraminifera δ18O records. Indicators of continental influence. d Branched and Isoprenoid Tetraether (BIT) index. e Terrigenous/Ca ratio. Sea-surface temperature. f TEX86 (filled markers represent samples with BIT index > 0.4). Main negative isotope excursion at MGC is indicated as a horizontal shaded bar. Key: epoch – Pleistocene (Pl.); lithostratigraphic units – Forest Hill Formation (FH), Moodys Branch Formation (MB), Cockfield Formation (Cf). Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
