Here we compare new and previously published alkenone-based sea surface temperature (SST) reconstructions from diverse environments within the ETP, i.e. the Eastern Pacific Warm Pool (EPWP), the equatorial and the northern Peruvian Upwelling regions over the past 100,000 years. Over this time period, a fairly constant meridional temperature gradient across the region is observed, indicating similar hydrographic conditions during glacial and interglacial periods. The data further reveal that millennial-scale cold events associated with massive iceberg surges in the North Atlantic (Heinrich events) generate cooling in the ETP from ~8°N to ~2°S. Data from Heinrich event 1 however indicate that the response changes sign south of 2'a1S. These millennial-scale alterations of the SST pattern across diverse environments of the ETP support previous climate modeling experiments that suggested an Atlantic-Pacific connection caused by the intensification of the Central American gap winds, enhanced upwelling and mixing north of the equator and supported by positive air-sea feedbacks in the eastern tropical Pacific.","author":{"name":"Dubois, N., M.

benthic d18O from 3 cores from the eastern equatorial Pacific covering the late Quaternary.\n\n Methods: Cores ME0005A-24JC, ME0005A-27JC and ME0005A-43JC were analyzed for alkenone unsaturation at Dalhousie University following standard laboratory procedures detailed by Kienast et al. (2006). Sea-surface temperature estimates (UK'37 SST) were calculated from the ratio of the concentration of the di and triunsaturated alkenones, using the calibration of Prahl et al. (1988). The upper 500 cm of ME0005A-24JC were analyzed at WHOI following the same procedure and were previously published by Kienast et al. (2006). These data were shifted by +0.027 UK'37 units because of a laboratory offset determined from 10 replicate samples. Results from the last 25 kyr BP of core ME0005A-43JC were previously published in Dubois et al. (2009). Results of cores ME0005A-24JC and ME0005A-27JC were previously published in Dubois et al. (2011). \n\n Stable oxygen isotope measurements of benthic foraminifera from cores ME0005A-24JC, ME0005A-27JC and ME0005A-43JC were performed at the Oregon State University College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences (OSU/CEOAS) Stable Isotope Mass Spectrometer Facility using a Kiel III carbonate preparation device connected to a Thermo-Finnigan MAT-252 mass spectrometer. The data were corrected to the accepted PDB scale using an internal lab calcite standard (Wiley) and the international calcite standard NIST-8544 (NBS-19, d18O=-2.20). External precision (1 standard deviation) of the Wiley standard of similar weight to the foraminiferal samples was 'b1 0.05 per mil. Results of cores ME0005A-24JC were previously published  in Kienast et al. (2013). \n\n ADDITIONAL REFERENCES: \n Benway, H.M., Mix, A.C., Haley, B.A., Klinkhammer, G.P., 2006.
