The relative flux of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) out of the Atlantic can be monitored in the Southern Ocean, where high delta13C NADW mixes rapidly with low delta13C recirculated Pacific water before forming Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW). By using delta13C measured in benthic foraminifera as a...
