TL;DR: In this paper, surface sediments from Little Bahama Bank (LBB), intersecting the subtropical thermocline, were used to assess the influence of temperature on the incorporation of Mg, Sr, F, and Cd into shells of benthic foraminifera.

TL;DR: The penultimate deglaciation in a record from the Bahamas is date using a new U-Th isochron technique and the midpoint age is determined to be 135 ± 2.5 kyr ago, which is consistent with some coral-based sea-level estimates, but it is difficult to reconcile with June Northern Hemisphere insolation as the trigger for the ice-age cycles.

TL;DR: In this article, the Cibicidoides Mg/Ca-temperature calibration has been revised with a significantly different preexponential constant, resulting in different predicted absolute temperatures.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used oxygen-isotope ratios of benthic foraminifera which lived along the ocean margins on the boundaries of the Florida Current during the Last Glacial Maximum to determine the density structure in the water and thereby reconstruct transport through the Straits using the geostrophic method.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present new isotopic data for sedimentary planktonic foraminifera, as well as for potential water column and sedimentary sources of neodymium (Nd).
