Kima (Giant clam) merupakan kelompok kerang laut yang termasuk dalam anggota Famili
Cardiidae dan Kelas Bivalvia. Kima merupakan salah satu komoditas perdagangan …

Over the past decade, sclerochronological research has continued to develop rapidly and is
diversifying with respect to methods, taxa, geographic coverage as well as temporal depth …

Molluscs comprise the second largest phylum of animals (after arthropods), occurring in
virtually all habitats. Some are commercially important, a few are pests and some carry …

Lack of constraint on spatial and long-term temporal variability of the El Niño southern
Oscillation (ENSO) and its sensitivity to external forcing limit our ability to evaluate climate …

Abstract The El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is the leading mode of interannual climate
variability. However, it is unclear how ENSO has responded to external forcing, particularly …

High-resolution δ18O and Sr/Ca ratio profiles of a modern (live-caught) and a fossil (dead-
collected) giant bivalve shell (Tridacna gigas) from northern South China Sea were …

Giant clams produce massive calcified shells with important biological (eg, defensive) and
ecological (eg, habitat-forming) properties. Whereas elevated seawater temperature is …

Recent advances in spatially-resolved in-situ geochemical analysis enabled recognizing
daily variability in B, Mg, Sr and Ba within bivalve shells of the genus Tridacna (eg Sano et …

We present a novel approach for ultra-high resolution laser-ablation inductively-coupled-
plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICPMS) analysis, which not only allows us to clearly …

This chapter investigates ENSO variability before the instrumental era. Though generally
indirect, paleoclimate observations provide information that no other source can, sampling …
