Regression between rainfall amount and stalagmite d18O. "We choose to use 10- year decadal means to compare mean stalagmite ?18O and rainfall amount between wet and dry periods (i.e. different PDV phases) (Figure S8). Dating errors preclude us from using a regression between stalagmite ?18O and rainfall amount yearly data during the instrumental era. The slope of the regression yields a conversion of 1? stalagmite ?18O per 1.4 m/wet season (R2 = 0.74); an inverse correlation known as the ?Amount Effect? (Dansgaard, 1964; Rozanski et al., 1993)."

0.72 per mil of d18O change per 1 m of rainfall per wet season
