The Branched GDGT Isomer Ratio Refines Lacustrine Paleotemperature Estimates
Abstract Branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) are membrane‐spanning lipids synthesized by bacteria in numerous substrates. The degree of methylation of the five methyl brGDGTs in both soils and lake sediments, described by the MBT′5Me index, is empirically related to surface atmo...
