A continuous δ 18 O and δ 13 C record in bulk Þne-fraction carbonate has been obtained for the late Miocene and late middle Miocene (5 - 14 Ma) at 10-cm intervals (corresponding to an average 6 k.y.). Continuous data are presented for benthic foraminifers over the interval 5Ð7.3 Ma as well as over intervals from ~9.5 to 9.8 Ma and 11 to 13 Ma. Limited data are also available for planktonic foraminifers over the same intervals. There is strong orbital-frequency covariance between δ 13 C in bulk Þne fraction and δ 13 C in benthic foraminifers, suggesting that both parameters resect variability in the δ 13 C of dissolved CO 2 in the ocean. Spectral analysis of the whole δ 13 C record for bulk Þne fraction shows strong power in the 400-k.y. and 100-k.y. eccentricity bands. Benthic δ 18 O shows variability that probably resects the temperature of the deep (3.6 km) Atlantic Ocean water. Bulk Þne-fraction δ 18 O displays very little high-frequency variability, possibly due to an original signal having been reduced through isotopic equilibration with pore water. The origin of the long-term variability in bulk Þne-fraction δ 18 O, which apparently implies a cooling centered on about 9.5 Ma, is enigmatic, since this feature is not evident in the δ 18 O data for G. sacculifer.
