Oceanographic variability at Clipperton Atoll since the 1880s: stable isotopic evidence from massive corals [abstract]

EXTRACT (SEE PDF FOR FULL ABSTRACT):Clipperton Atoll (10°18'N, 109°13'W), lies within the eastern Pacific elongated warm water pool centered at 10°N and is situated at the boundary of the North Equatorial Counter-Current (NECC) and westward-flowing eddy currents moving away from Central America. ... Fifteen coral cores were collected from massive heads of Porites lobata in April 1994 for the purpose of reconstructing oceanographic and climatic conditions at this open ocean site in the eastern Pacific.
