Sea-level reconstruction (and associated confidence interval⁵⁰; LR04 benthic foraminifera δ¹⁸O stack⁵¹ (±2 s.e.), and reconstructed global organic carbon burial in deep-sea sediment over the past 150 kyr (PgC per kyr,±1σ,±2σ and mean scenario based on the different province scenarios, see Methods, Supplementary Fig. 2 and Supplementary Data 1). The right axis shows relative changes in TOC MAR as compared with Holocene values. The mean organic carbon burial is significantly correlated to both the sea-level reconstruction and the benthic stack (R=0.85, P<<0.05 and R=0.77, P<<0.05, respectively). Yellow vertical bands correspond to interglacial periods (Holocene and Marine Isotopic Stage (MIS) 5e), blue vertical bands correspond to glacial condition (Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), MIS4 and MIS6).
