Late Quaternary palaeoceanography of the Circumpolar Deep Water from the South Tasman Rise
We use sediment cores from the South Tasman Rise (STR) to reconstruct deepwater circulation in the southwest Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean.

We use sediment cores from the South Tasman Rise (STR) to reconstruct deepwater circulation in the southwest Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean. Sediment cores MD972106 (45 09 S, 146 17 E, 3310 m water depth) and GC34 (45 06 S, 147 45 E, 4002 m water depth) preserve records covering the last 160 k yr, with chronology controlled by calibrated accelerator mass spectrometry radiocarbon dates and benthic foraminiferal 18O tied to SPECMAP. The STIR benthic foraminiferal 13C records provide new 13C values for Southern Ocean deep water spanning the last 160 kyr at sites unlikely to be affected by variations in productivity.
