Figure F3. Paleoclimate records of Calypso piston Core MD99-2336 from the Faro-Albufeira Drift, Gulf of Cádiz, from (A) Llave et al. (2006) and (B) Lebreiro and Voelker (unpubl. data from the MOWFADRI project). Changes in grain size and thereby in the strength of MOW are revealed by the mean grain-size MOW variation exactly correlated with Heinrich events and Dansgaard/Öschger cycles. VPDB = Vienna Peedee belemnite, LGM = Last Glacial Maximum, IRD = ice-rafted debris. BP = before present, MIS = marine isotope stage.
