used the d18O cycle to count annual layers; assigned the high d18O extremes to Aug 1 of every year and interpolated linearly between these tie points.  The largest d18O anomaly (late 1877) matches the most catastrophic monsoon failure on record

Authors suggest that ENSO dominates d18O variations on interannual timescales, while the Asian monsoon system drives decadal variability in d18O at this site

At  the  Seychelles,  however, one would expect the seasonal temperature variability (of more than 2i¿½C) to dominate the nearly constant d18O of seawater

Furthermore, correspondence with an independent index   of   monsoon   strength demonstrates  that  the  coral  successfully  captures the  large-scale  aspects  of  Asian  monsoon behavior
