Figure F7. Correlation of δ18O record of GISP ice core (red line; 1–18 = marine isotope stages) to δ18O of Globigerina bulloides (black line) in Core MD95-2042. Resulting correlation of Vostok δD (green line; A1–A5 = oscillation events) and benthic δ18O of Core MD95-2042 (blue line) based on methane synchronization. V-PDB = Vienna Peedee belemnite, V-SMOW = Vienna standard mean ocean water. Age is from Shackleton et al. (2004).
