Deep sea sediments in the Weddell Sea and Scotia Sea collectively record ca. 147 million years of interaction between ocean bottom circulation and increased sediment supply before, and after, the first Antarctic ice sheets advanced to the shelf edge. Seismic stratigraphy is a useful tool to decipher...
