  <Summary>
    <Abstract>A U-Th dated 90,000 year-long speleothem oxygen isotope record 
from southern Brazil anti-correlates remarkably with the cave 
calcite records from eastern China, but positively correlates 
with the speleothem record from northeastern Brazil, suggesting 
an interhemispheric anti-phasing of rainfall on both millennial 
and orbital timescales, likely related to displacement in the 
mean position of the intertropical convergence zone and
associated asymmetry in Hadley circulation. The phase 
relationships among these records are consistent with the
hypothesis that abrupt climate events during the last glacial
period are triggered by oceanic circulation changes in the
high latitudes and enhanced by tropical feedbacks. 
          STUDY NOTES: DESCRIPTION:  
90 KYr speleothem stable isotope record from stalagmite BTV3A, 
Botuverá Cave, southern Brazil. BTV3A is 24cm long, dated by 
16 U-Th samples, and grew continuously for the last 90kyr 
with no detectable hiatuses.
