    • Surface Water Radiocarbon (Δ14C) Reconstructed from Reef‐Building Zooxanthellate Corals in the Arabian Sea, Bali Sea and others from 1751-01-01 to 2004-12-31 (NCEI Accession 0157105)

    Metadata Updated: February 1, 2026

    This dataset includes Surface Water Radiocarbon (Δ14C) Reconstructed from Reef‐Building Zooxanthellate Corals in the Arabian Sea, Bali Sea, Makassar Strait, North Pacific Ocean, Solomon Sea and South Pacific Ocean from 1751-01-01 to 2004-12-31. The surface water radiocarbon (as Δ‰) data presented in this archive are derived from surface dwelling, reef-building hermatypic corals which have been shown to be reliable archives of ocean Σ14CO2 [eg., Guilderson et al., 1998; Kilbourne et al., 2007; and references therein]

    These data were collected by Stewart J. Fallon of Research School of the Earth Sciences, Australian National University, K. Halimeda Kilbourne of Chesapeake Biological Laboratory (UMCES CBL), Daniel P. Schrag of Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Harvard University, Tom P. Guilderson of Center for Accelerator Mass Spectrometry, Robert B. Dunbar of Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Stanford University, and Nancy Grumet-Prouty of USGS Pacific Coastal & Marine Science Center as part of the Surface Water Radiocarbon from Coral Reefs dataset. CDIAC associated the following cruise ID(s) with this dataset: Coral Reefs
