| We present high-resolution benthic delta C-13 records from intermediate water depth core site MD01-2461 ( 1153 m water depth), from the Porcupine Seabight, NE Atlantic, spanning 43 to 8 kyr B. P. At an average proxy time step of 160 +/- 56 years this core provides information on the linkage between records from the Portuguese Margin and high-latitude North Atlantic basin, allowing additional insights into North Atlantic thermohaline circulation (THC) variability during millennial-scale climatic events of the last glacial. Together, these records document both discrete and progressive reductions in Glacial North Atlantic Intermediate Water (GNAIW) formation preceding Heinrich ( H) events 1, 2, and 4, recorded through the apparent interchange of glacial... |
