The scientifically and politically agreed-upon benchmark for global warming limits in coming decades (stated in the Paris Agreement) was set to "well below 2°C above preindustrial levels". The interglacial period called Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 11 that occurred between 426 and 396 thousand years ago reached up to 2°C warmer than preindustrial temperatures, making it an excellent case st…
The subtropical gyres are the main routes for redistributing energy between the low and high latitudes (intra-hemispheres), playing a crucial role in the global climate system. In recent decades, observational data has recorded a southward shift of the South Atlantic Subtropical Gyre. This phenomenon has been linked to the weakening of the Atlantic meridional overturning cell (AMOC), whic…
Considering the scientifically and politically agreed-upon benchmark for global warming limits, MIS 11 is an excellent case study to investigate the behavior of Earth's climate under globally 2°C warmer-than-preindustrial temperatures. The South Atlantic is particularly important for Earth's climate since it is an enormous heat reservoir and plays a crucial role in the heat transport betw…
The luminescence emitted by minerals has long been used in paleoenvironmental studies, some of them focusing on the luminescence emitted by carbonates. The amount of Mg impurity in calcite has a direct correlation with the crystallization temperature that in turn has been seen to affect the calcite thermoluminescence (TL) emission (i.e. high temperature calcites are often found to have mo…

Considering the scientifically and politically agreed-upon benchmark for global warminglimits (i.e. "well below 2°C"), Marine Isotope Stage 11 (MIS 11), which occurredbetween ca. 426 and 396 thousand year ago, is an excellent case study to investigate thebehavior of Earth's climate under globally 2°C warmer-than-preindustrial temperatures.The upper South Atlantic is particularly important…
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) plays a fundamental role in the oceanography and climate of the Atlantic realm. A potential shutdown of the AMOC would cause major changes in surface heat distribution in the Atlantic Ocean, strongly affecting tropical South American precipitation. Thus, a comprehensive understanding of the response of the Atlantic Ocean to changes in…
The Brazil Current (BC) plays a fundamental role in the distribution of energy between the hemispheres. It stores and redirects towards the mean latitudes of the Southern Hemisphere a significant portion of heat in periods of weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). Additionally, the BC influences summer precipitation in a large sector of South America. Recentl…

The glacial termination that occurred around 400 thousand years ago (i.e. Termination V) culminated in the interglacial know as Marine Isotope Stage 11 (MIS11), during which the Earth's mean temperature was 2°C warmer than the pre-industrial era. Considering the internationally recognized target to limit current global warming to 'well below 2°C', Termination V and MIS11 provide an excel…
Tropical South American hydroclimate sustains the world's largest biodiversity, as well as hundreds of millions of people. Still, its response to climate change remains highly uncertain. A better understanding of past natural climate variability can be a powerful tool in order to reduce these uncertainties. The Intertropical Converge Zone (ITCZ) is one of the most important atmospheric fe…
The western boundary currents of the South Atlantic play a fundamental role in the distribution of energy between the hemispheres. The Brazil Current (BC), for instance, stores and redirects towards the mean latitudes of the Southern Hemisphere a significant portion of heat during periods of a weak Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. Additionally, the BC influences the South Atla…
The Brazil Current (BC) represents the southern branch of the bifurcation of the South Equatorial Current that interacts with the eastern and southern Brazilian continental margins. The BC plays an important role in controlling the intensity of the South American Monsoon System that, in turn, is responsible for summer precipitation in a large sector of South America. Moreover, the BC is i…
