| Abstract | Reconstructing Earth’s climate history provides the context for the ongoing climate change and is essential for advancing our understanding of the climate system and for validating climate model predictions. Many of these reconstructions rely on analyses of the chemical composition of various climate archives such as coral skeletons, but they can be impacted by the non-climatic factors that can also influence the chemical composition of these archives. This research will directly address this ch |
