Global climate of the Plio-Pleistocene has been largely impacted by changes of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which has most likely to a large extent been controlled by the formation of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) ventilating the entire Atlantic Ocean. The main areas co...
