Welcome to CENOGRID.org!

This site provides access to published benthic δ13C and δ18O data that have been collected in more than 50 years of deep-ocean drilling through IODP and its predecessor programs. You can construct your own CENOGRID megasplice, including your own data, to visualize climate change and carbon-cycling throughout the last 66 million years! What's really cool, is that you can now upload your own data and compare them with the reference data! You can also download the underlying datasets: Please always cite the original data reference when using this data in your publications.

Instructions

Select the datasets you want to include in your CENOGRID megasplice. Use the sliders to decide which data to include. You can also adjust the x-axes and y-axes of your plot. If you want to implement the same site several times, click the + symbol.
You can account for isotopic divergence between ocean basins, or between benthic isotope species, by clicking "Pacific Trend". This option shifts individual records to the Pacific Ocean long-term δ13C or δ18O benthic long-term trend.
