The constriction of the Central American Seaway reached a critical threshold during the early Pliocene ~4.8-4 million years (Ma) ago. Model simulations indicate the strengthening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) with a signature warming response in the Northern Hemisphere and cooling in the Southern Hemisphere. Subsequently, between ~4-3 Ma, the constriction of the Indonesian Seaway impacted regional climate and might have accelerated the Northern Hemisphere Glaciation. We here present Pliocene Atlantic interhemispheric sea surface temperature and salinity gradients (deduced from foraminiferal Mg/Ca and stable oxygen isotopes, d18O) in combination with a recently published benthic stable carbon isotope (d13C) record from the southernmost extent of North Atlantic Deep Water to reconstruct gateway-related changes in the AMOC mode. After an early reduction of the AMOC at ~5.3 Ma, we show in agreement with model simulations of the impacts of Central American Seaway closure a strengthened AMOC with a global climate signature. During ~3.8-3 Ma, we suggest a weakening of the AMOC in line with the global cooling trend, with possible contributions from the constriction of the Indonesian Seaway. #------------------ # Funding_Agency # Funding_Agency_Name: German Science Foundation (DFG) # Grant: Ka3461/1-2 #------------------ # Site_Information # Site_Name: DSDP516A # Location: Ocean>Atlantic Ocean>South Atlantic Ocean # Country: # Northernmost_Latitude: -30.2833 # Southernmost_Latitude: -30.2833 # Easternmost_Longitude: -35.2833 # Westernmost_Longitude: -35.2833 # Elevation: m #------------------ # Data_Collection # Collection_Name: Karas2017DSDP516A # Earliest_Year: 5772000 # Most_Recent_Year: 2786000 # Time_Unit: Cal.
