Deep-water gorgonian corals are long-lived and abundant in the North Pacific Ocean. Gorgonians have annually-resolved skeletal organic bands, making them proxies of environmental changes. Specimens of Primnoa sp. were collected from the Gulf of Alaska in 2001, 2003, and 2004. Organic band counts and 210 Pb dating were combined to produce a growth chronology for 2 speci- mens. Organic skeletal growth bands were dissected and analysed for 13 C and 15 N to investigate long-term changes in production and cycling of organic matter in surface waters. Three specimens were analyzed: PAL, P26 and P88. Specimen PAL, with a record spanning 125 yr, exhibits a statisti- cally significant systematic depletion of 13 C and 15 N over time. The magnitude of the depletion trend in the carbon record over the past 50 yr is equivalent to the 13 C depletion of ocean surface dissolved inorganic carbon from the input of anthropogenic carbon into the atmosphere (the Suess effect). The depletion in 15 N may reflect changes in plankton composition at the bottom of the food web.
