a Paleogeographic map with SST data shown in colored dots from the respective drill sites. b Modeled SSTs from fully coupled HadCM3L simulations of the Early-(33.9–28.4 Ma) and Late Oligocene (28.4–23.0 Ma)26. The modeled simulations are TDLUQ and TDLUP respectively (see Supplementary Table 2). TDLUP SSTs are differenced from TDLUQ SSTs in the third panel. c High-resolution ocean model25. The Southern Ocean paleogeography is reconstructed for Late Eocene (38 Ma) for all three panels, red circles indicate the studied sites.
