Samples pass the Hendy Test. Low correlation between d18O and d13C across a layer. Also d18O replicates between stalagmites, but d13C doesnt. Top of stalagmite is similar to predicted value using dripwater d18O and cave temp

Thermo-Finnigan MAT253 Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer (IRMS) or a Thermo-Finnigan Delta V Plus IRMS, with a Kiel IV Carbonate Device both at the Analytical Laboratory for Paleoclimate Studies (ALPS) at the Jackson School of Geosciences, University of Texas at Austin

AX: check if age model exists. Note: Speleo age model? It should, as it has ages!

XRD - shows only calcite peaks and no aragonite peaks

repeat measurements of a carbonate standard has a long-term analytical precision of 0.12?, 2?
