The material consists of a vertical core from a colony of Porites lutea. Samples for isotopic analyses were taken using a low-speed dental drill. Untreated samples were measured on a Finnigan MAT 251 mass spectrometer. The age model in the data set is based on the density banding of the skeleton and the seasonality in d18O. A 116-year record of coral skeletal d18O is presented from a colony of Porites lutea from Ningaloo Reef, west Australia. Interannual variability of sea surface temperatures (SST) inferred from skeletal d18O is dominated by a 9.5-year period, and may constitute a characteristic signal of the Leeuwin Current. On long-terms coral skeletal d18O indicates a near-continuous increase of sea surface temperatures at Ningaloo Reef over one century. The skeletal d18O time series was checked for the presence of seasonal cooling events resulting from major volcanic eruptions. A ~1° C cooling is evident following the eruption of Pinatubo in 1991, which reproduces the results of earlier investigations. However, only weak or no signals can be related to the eruptions of Krakatau (1883) and Agung (1963). USED CORE LENGTH: 1.44 m, covering the period 1878-1994 A.D. (Complete core length: 3 m, lower portion was not investigated due to presence of inorganic aragonite). DATE OF COLLECTION: May 1995. PRECISION: Internal precisions (1 SD) are 0.02 per mil for delta O-18, and 0.015 per mil for delta C-13. External precisions (1 SD) of an internal laboratory standard (Solnhofen limestone) are 0.07 per mil for delta O-18, and 0.05 per mil for delta C-13. SAMPLING RESOLUTION: Average sampling density is 6.7 samples per year. The bimonthly data were interpolated with an Excel-macro. AGE MODEL: Based on couplets of annual density bands and seasonality in d18O. Within each year the highest (least depleted) d18O value was tied to mid-September, which is the coldest month on average. ABSTRACT SUPPLIED BY ORIGINATOR: 116-year record of coral skeletal δ18O is presented from a colony of Porites lutea from Ningaloo Reef, western Australia. Interannual variability of sea-surface temperatures (SST) inferred from skeletal δ18O is dominated by a 9.5-year period, and may constitute a characteristic signal of the Leeuwin Current. On long-terms coral skeletal δ18O indicates a near-continuous increase of SST at Ningaloo Reef over one century. The skeletal δ18O time series was checked for the presence of seasonal cooling events resulting from major volcanic eruptions. An ∼1 °C cooling is evident following the eruption of Pinatubo in 1991, which reproduces the results of previous investigations. However, only weak or no signals can be related to the eruptions of Krakatau (1883) and Agung (1963).
