Congrats to Flavia and colleagues on an important (and really tough-to-get) result!
Paper Alert❗️We present the first Oligocene record of orbital variability in abyssal ocean temperature based on benthic foraminiferal clumped isotopes. Temperature changes up to 4 degrees C with a 110 kyr pacing, indicating Antarctic ice-volume at this time was less dynamic than previously thought.

For the first time, scientist discovered that the large up-and-downs in oxygen isotopes of the mid Oligocene were primarily driven by large temperature changes in the abyssal ocean and not, as previously assumed, to enormous changes in ice volume in Antarctica. 3/3

Oligocene deep ocean oxygen isotope variations primarily driven by temperature - Nature Geoscience
Large benthic oxygen isotope fluctuations in the Oligocene Southern Ocean primarily represent deep water temperature changes, suggesting the Antarctic ice sheet volume was relatively stable, according to a clumped isotope record.

Exploring macroevolutionary links in multi-species planktonic foraminiferal Mg∕Ca and δ18O from 15 Ma to recent
Abstract. The ratio of the trace element Mg over Ca (Mg/Ca) and the oxygen isotopic composition (δ18O) of foraminiferal calcite are widely employed for reconstructing past ocean temperatures, although...
