Map of the Drake Passage region with mean annual sea surface temperature from the World Ocean Atlas (based on 2005–2017 average observations)75. Yellow dots mark sediment core locations and the red dot indicates the location of the main record introduced in this study. MD07-3128 is located at the same location as Site U1542. White transparent arrows are schematic representations of major surface currents; the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the South Pacific Current (SPC), the Cape Horn Current (CHC), the Humboldt Current (HC), and the Malvinas Current (MC). Dashed lines represent altimetry-derived ACC fronts30; Northern Boundary (NB), Subantarctic Front (SAF), Polar Front (PF), and Southern ACC front (SACCF). Maps were created in Ocean Data View76.
