| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently TEX86 index, which is calculated from relative amounts of GDGTs compounds derived from membrane lipids of marine archaean cell, is used for reconstructing paleo temperature. However, the origin of GDGTs found in sediments is unknown. In this study, we reconstructed the TEX86 temperatures for surface sediments in Chukchi Sea, Arctic Ocean and examined the origins of GDGTs using compound-specific radiocarbon analysis.
