Deposition of aeolian mineral dust recorded in Antarctic ice cores is strongly tied to large-scale atmospheric circulation variability. This natural archive can be used to extend knowledge about atmospheric circulation variability in the Southern Hemisphere (SH) prior to the satellite era (1979-2017...
