Summary
Abstract: This data consists of reconstructed changes of paleotemperature,
-salinity, and -productivity within the southern Peru-Chile Current
during the last 8,000 years from a high-resolution sediment core
recovered at 41B0S using alkenones, isotope ratios of planktic
foraminifera, biogenic opal, and organic carbon. Paleotemperatures
and -salinities reached maximum values at ca. 5,500 years and
