Reconstruction of east–west deep water exchange in the low latitude Atlantic Ocean over the past 25,000 years ...
Radiogenic neodymium isotopes have been used as a water mass mixing proxy to investigate past changes in ocean circulation. Here we present a new depth transect of deglacial neodymium isotope records measured on uncleaned planktic foraminifera from five cores spanning from 3300 to 4900 m on the Maur...
