...the water in which the shells (made of calcium carbonate, CaCO 3 ) are precipitated, and the amount of water that has been extracted from the ocean and locked up in polar ice. In regions where the temperature changes little between interglacial and glacial periods (such as the western equatorial Pacific), the δ 18 O of shells precipitated in surface waters mainly reflects the ice effect—including any changes in the isotopic composition of the ice—since buildup of ice increases the ratio of 18 O to 16 O. In cores from such areas, shells with an 18 O/ 16 O...
