Data for modern shell 3R5. From top to bottom: (A) monthly growth rate (yellow); (B) reconstructed δ18Owater (blue); (C) measured precipitation (purple) and discharge (dark grey); and (D) shell δ18O (light grey) and △47 temperature (black). The vertical shaded bands represent dark bands in the shell, with the dashed red line representing a disturbance band and the solid red line representing an annual band in the 3B-D. Modern measured values of δ18Owater are represented by the light blue horizontal rectangle in 3B. Seasons and years are shown at the top.
