Fig. 9: Aeolian dust fluxes variations and Milankovitch-driven forcing.

Phase relationship between the Ti signal (%), aeolian dust ratios, and Milankovitch cycles for selected parts of the eccentricity-dominated and obliquity-dominated intervals. A Close-up view of the antiphase relationship between Ti (%), 173 kyr filter (obliquity-related cycle impacting the signal the most) and the aeolian dust ratios. B Close-up view of the phase relationship between Ti (%), obliquity filter (obliquity-related cycle impacting the most the signal) and the aeolian dust ratios. The Ti (%), Ti/Al, and Si/Al curves correspond to the 5-points moving average trends observed in the data. E405 Long Eccentricity cycle, e100 Short Eccentricity cycle, I173 173 kyr cycle, kyr kilo year, Ma Mega annum, o30 Obliquity cycle.
