ResourceWorld Data Center for Paleoclimatology - Corals and Sclerosponges
Coral data at the World Data Center consist of stable isotope and trace metal analyses from corals located around the globe. Corals serve as proxies of upper ocean environment, such as sea surface temperature and salinity, over the past several centuries.
