Abstract:
Supplementary datasets of ichthyolith accumulation rates, as well as updated accumulation rate calculations for silica and barium from published literature, compiled for the following manuscript on the GTS2012 age model:
The Eocene-Oligocene (E/O) boundary ~33.9 million years ago, has been described as a state change in the Earth system, marked by the permanent glaciation of Antarctica and a proposed increase in oceanic productivity. Here we quantified the response of fish production and biodiversity to this event using microfossil fish teeth (ichthyoliths) in seven deep-sea cores. Ichthyolith Accumulation Rate (IAR, a proxy for fish biomass production) shows no synchronous trends across the E/O. IAR in the Southern Ocean and Pacific Gyre sites is an order of magnitude lower than the equatorial and Atlantic sites, demonstrating that the Southern Ocean was not a highly productive ecosystem for fish before or after the E/O. Further, tooth morphotype diversity and assemblage composition remained stable across the interval, indicating little change in the biodiversity or ecological role of fish. While the E/O boundary was a significant global climate change event, its impact on pelagic fish was relatively muted. Our results support recent findings of whale and krill diversification which suggest that the pelagic ecosystem restructuring commonly attributed to the E/O transition likely occurred much later, in the late Oligocene or Miocene.
