The South Atlantic in the Late Quaternary Reconstruction of Material Budgets and Current Systems

The South Atlantic in the Late Quaternary Reconstruction of Material Budgets and Current Systems / edited by Gerold Wefer, Stefan Mulitza, Volker Ratmeyer.

The South Atlantic plays a critical role in the couplingofoceanic processes between the Antarctic and the lower latitudes. The Antarctic Ocean, along with the adjacent southern seas, is of substantial importance for global climate and for the distributionofwater masses because itprovides large regio...
