  • Radiocarbon evidence for annual growth rings in the deep-sea octocoral Primnoa resedaeformis 

    Sherwood, OA, DB Scott, MJ Risk, and TP Guilderson. 2005. "Radiocarbon evidence for annual growth rings in the deep-sea octocoral Primnoa resedaeformis." Marine Ecology Progress Series 301: 129-134. doi:10.3354/meps301129
    The deep-sea gorgonian octocoral Primnoa resedaeformis is distributed throughout the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans at depths of 65 to 3200 m. It has a 2-part skeleton of calcite and gorgonin. Towards the inside of the axial ...
  • Stable isotopic composition of deep-sea gorgonian corals Primnoa spp.: a new archive of surface processes 

    Sherwood, OA, JM Heikoop, DB Scott, MJ Risk, et al. 2005. "Stable isotopic composition of deep-sea gorgonian corals Primnoa spp.: a new archive of surface processes." Marine Ecology Progress Series 301: 135-148. doi:10.3354/meps301135
    The deep-sea gorgonian coral Primnoa spp. live in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans at depths of 65 to 3200 m. They have an arborescent growth form with a skeletal axis composed of annual rings made from calcite and gorgonin. ...
