Comment:
Offsets are calculated for each foraminifera species by subtracting the average FB-δ15N of dinoflagellate-bearing foraminifera (G. ruber, T. sacculifer, O. universa) from the FB-δ15N of the target species (e.g., G. truncatulinoides). An alternative name for 'Globigerinoides ruber ruber' is 'Globigerinoides ruber pink'.
