(editor), Climate of the last million years; new insights from EPICA and other records29 (1-2)160-169The sensitivity to temperature of Mg/Ca ratios in the shallow-infaunal benthic foraminifera Uvigerina spp. has been assessed. Core-top calibrations over approximately 1-20 degrees C show a range in sensitivity of 0.065-0.084 mmol/mol/ degrees C but few data are available spanning the temperature range anticipated in deep-sea records over glacial-interglacial cycles. In contrast to epibenthic foraminiferal species, carbonate ion saturation appears not to affect Mg/Ca significantly. A method based on estimating the ratio of the temperature sensitivity of foraminiferal Mg/Ca to that of delta (super 18) O (sub calcite) shows that sensitivity for Mg/Ca at the high end of the observed core-top range ( approximately 0.1 mmol/mol/ degrees C) is required for consistency with LGM-Holocene differences in each property as constrained by independent proxy data. This is supported by a Mg/Ca record for Uvigerina spp. generated for the Southern Ocean over the past 440,000 years from Ocean Drilling Program Site 1123 (Chatham Rise, New Zealand). The record shows variability that correlates with climate oscillations. The LGM deep ocean temperature derived from the Mg/Ca record is -1.1+ or -0.3 degrees C. Transformation to temperature allows estimates to be made of changes in bottom water temperature and seawater delta (super 18) O and comparison made with literature records. Analysis reveals a approximately 2.5-kyr lead in the record of temperature over calcite delta (super 18) O and a longer lead over seawater delta (super 18) O. This is a reflection of larger phase offsets at eccentricity periods; phase offsets at tilt and precession are within error zero.
