Dinoflagellate cyst distribution during the Middle Eocene in the Drake Passage area: paleoceanographic implications

The middle-late Eocene (45-36 Ma) dinoflagellate cyst distribution in high latitudes of the Southern Hemisphere has been explained by a surface ocean circulation pattern characterized by extensive subpolar gyres around Antarctica. Based on global paleoclimate models it has been proposed that these s...
