Oceanic Tunnel Controls of Eastern Equatorial Pacific Surface Temperature and Productivity Over the Past 3.6 Myr
Abstract Robust modern gradients in sea surface temperature (SST) and biological productivity across the eastern equatorial Pacific (EEP) Ocean between 80° and 140°W derive from vigorous upwelling of cold and nutrient‐rich waters. However, during the mid‐Pliocene warm period (3.0–3.3 Ma), the zonal...
