A relationship between temperature and relative O abundance in calcium carbonate in marine shells has been determined. If the relative O abundance of the water in which the shell grew is known, the temperature can be determined to an accuracy of ±1.0°C. The relative O contents of marine waters increase with salinity and, in the case of surface marine waters, with salinity and temperature.
