Abrupt climate changes in the past have been attributed to variations in Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) strength. However, the exact timing and magnitude of past AMOC shifts remain elusive, which continues to limit our understanding of the driving mechanisms of such climate variability. Here we show a consistent signal of the <sup>231</sup>Pa/<sup>230</sup>Th proxy that reveals a spatially coherent picture of western Atlantic circulation changes over the last deglaciation, du ...[more]
