摘要

Correlations between mean annual temperature (MAT) and the weighted average oxygen isotope composition of yearly precipitation (#delta#~(18)O_(pt)) are well-known, but the utility of modern relations to make reliable estimates of temperature change over geological time is uncertain. This question has been addressed by using seasonal subsets of the global data base of temperature and isotopic measurements to represent two different climate modes. A comparison of middle- to high-latitude #delta#~(18)O_(pt)/temperature relations for each climate mode reveals (1) a significant offset between them, and (2) a difference in the strength of their correlations. The offset is relations is due to differences in temperature and water vapor budget in the tropics, and can lead to serious underestimates of temperature change. Differences in the strength of correlations arise from the influence of climate mode-specific, non-temperature factors on #delta#~(18)O_(pt). The overall result is that no single relation can be used in all cases to make unambiguous temperature estimates using a temporal record of #delta#~(18)O_(pt) values. One way to overcome these problems is to reconstruct #delta#~(18)O_(pt)/temperature relations for the time periods being investigated. If an appropriate proxy for #delta#~(18)O_(pt) is available, it may also be possible to estimate temperature without relying on #delta#~(18)O_(pt)/temperature relations. A promising alternative to these options is to use records of #delta#~(18)O_(pt) to test predictions of global climate models, an approach that may allow a reliable and more complete reconstruction to be made of climate change over geologic time.
