OC3 was a PAGES working group from 2014 to 2019. The group is still active, and plans to launch a seminar series.
OC3 focusses on reconstructing ocean circulation and carbon cycling over the last 20,000 years by synthesizing carbon isotopes (δ13C) measured on shells of benthic foraminifera from sediments of all ocean basins. More than 90 international scientists have been involved to date.

Topic: The OC3 deglacial stable isotope database: Features and tools
Abstract
The Ocean Carbon and Cycling Project (OC3) is an initiative to create a global database of deglacial benthic foraminifera stable
isotope data from seafloor sediment cores. High resolution age models are included in the data base, with the aim to release a data product where stable isotope fields through the deglaciation could be analyzed in a "four dimensional" framework. In this talk we describe the current state of the data base, show some analyzing tools for users, and discuss future applications and goals.
