sediment sample (IMAGE)
Caption
Mass spectrometry image of a 5-centimeter-long sediment sample obtained from the Mediterranean Sea. The heat map indicates the spatial distribution of an alkenone-based climate proxy for sea surface temperature reconstruction on the sediment surface. Each pixel corresponds to an individual measurement at the resolution of 200 µm, where red colors represent warmer temperatures and blue colder.
