Results of clumped isotope, oxygen isotope and elemental (Mg/Ca, Sr/Ca) analyses of
exceptionally well-preserved belemnite rostra and ammonite shells from the uppermost …

Little is known about the fractionation of Li isotopes during formation of biogenic carbonates,
which form the most promising geological archives of past seawater composition. Here we …

Modern Asian climate is characterized by strong seasonality caused by the duality between
monsoon-dominated conditions in southeastern Asia and semi-arid to arid conditions in …

The elemental composition of marine mollusk shells can offer valuable information about
environmental conditions experienced by a mollusk during its lifespan. Previous studies …

Modern analogs are an essential part of palaeoclimate studies, because they provide the
basis for the understanding of geochemical signatures of fossils. Ostreoids are common in …

Abstract Bivalve shell Mg/Ca records can be important potential tracers of paleo-
temperature, but evidence has shown that the temperature dependence of trace metal …

Retrospective estimates of life-history traits (eg, growth rate, lifespan, phenology) of mollusks
are valuable data for a number of fields, including paleontology, archaeology, and fisheries …

Fossil oyster shells are well-suited to provide palaeotemperature proxies from geologic to
seasonal timescales due to their ubiquitous occurrence from Triassic to Quaternary …

Neogene marine deposits of North Borneo are locally very rich in fossils that provide
glimpses into the past biodiversity. However, dating these onshore sediments with …
