Climate reconstruction from paired oxygen-isotope analyses of chironomid larval head capsules and endogenic carbonate (Hawes Water, UK) - Potential and problems
Temperature and the oxygen isotopic composition (δ18O) of meteoric water are both important palaeoclimatic variables, but separating their influences on proxies such as the δ18O of lake carbonates is often problematic. The large temperature variations that are known to have occurred in the northern...
