Abstract: Here we present derived thermal-hydrological variations data during the Marine isotope stages (MISs) 10–12 using surface and subsurface dwelling planktonic foraminiferal geochemical proxies of a sedimentary core of MD05-2925 (9.3oS, 151.5oE, water depth 1661 m, core depth 1842–2430 cm), Solomon Sea. Globigerinoides ruber (s.s., white, 250–300 µm) and Pulleniatina obliquiloculata (355–425 µm) tests were hand-picked and cleaned for stable carbon and oxygen isotopes and Mg/Ca analyses. Composite benthic foraminifera tests (>250 µm, Uvig...
