Oxygen isotope ratios of contemporary waters and diatom silica : implications for palaeoclimate research

Despite the increasingly frequent use of oxygen isotopes in diatom silica as a proxy for past environmental change, the processes which control these isotope ratios remain poorly understood. Various factors affect the oxygen isotope composition of sedimentary diatom silica, beginning with the atmosp...
