Abstract:Oxygen and carbon isotope analyses of the foraminifera Orbulina universa (planktic), Uvigerina peregrina (benthic) and Cibicides pachyderma (benthic) in 45 bottom samples from the archipelago of Bocas del Toro, Caribbean Panama, are used to address the reliability of stable isotope values in distinguishing differences among neritic surface water and middle neritic to upper bathyal depths. The significance of variation in isotope values within stations, between stations within depth-defined groups, and between … Show more
