Eolian dust preserved in deep-sea sediments provides a record of atmospheric circulation throughout geologic time. This eolian component has been isolated to determine its mass accumulation rate (MAR) and grain size in post-middle Oligocene sediments from DSDP Sites 597 to 602, which lie along 19°S...
