>Dear all,

>We would like to draw your attention on 2 recent publications dealing with fossils corals from coastal deposits on Bonaire. We show that Bonaire corals are suitable tools for reconstructing past SST variability and therefore, they are unique archive that can extend our understanding on the natural range of climate variability in the Southern Caribbean Sea.
