Time-series of Ba/Cashell of A. islandica exhibit highly synchronous patterns. Ba/Cashell are likely uncoupled from ontogenetic age and shell growth rate. Strong primary productivity coincides with annual Ba/Cashell peaks. Ba/Cashell can verify crossdating and facilitate stacked chronology construction.
