Orbital- and millennial-scale Antarctic Circumpolar Current variability in Drake Passage over the past 140,000 years

How the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) changed on glacial-interglacial time scales is not well known. Here, the authors present a 140,000 year long sediment record from the Drake passage and show both glacial-interglacial as well as millennial-scale variability which are linked to Atlantic vari...
