CBT = cyclization ratio of branched tetraethers; MBT = methylation index of branched tetraethers; TEX86 = tetraether index of tetraethers consisting of 86 carbon atoms; Uk37 = 37, alkenone unsaturation index.
As for the geochemical data, it is based on Mg / Ca in foraminifera, alkenone unsaturation in sediments and some sparse data from other techniques such as Ca isotopes, clumped isotopes and TEX86.
