南极中层水(AAIW)是大西洋经向翻转环流(AMOC)的重要组成部分,有助于平衡北大西洋深水(NADW)的南流。然而,AAIW 在全新世气候突变中的作用仍然知之甚少。在这里,我们根据来自西南大西洋的高时间分辨率古水流记录重建了 AAIW 流动强度的变化。叠加在距今 7ka BP 的 AAIW 强度略有增加的基础上,我们的古水流记录中发现了一系列千禧年规模的 AAIW 变化,表明整个全新世中间水循环存在高度变化。尽管南西风风 (SWW) 的强度和位置的变化被认为极大地影响了 AAIW 的形成和环流,但我们无法确认这种潜在的 SWW-AAIW 联系,因为我们对 AAIW 流强度的记录与 SWW 跨大西洋的全新世移动无关。然而,我们的数据显示,在 NADW 环流减少(增强)期间,AMOC 的突然变化与 AAIW 向北平流增强(减少)有很好的对应关系。这些结果为全新世 AAIW-NADW 跷跷板提供了证据。因此,尽管确切的强迫机制仍未解决,但我们认为 AAIW 中的全新世扰动对 AMOC 产生了重大影响。
Antarctic Intermediate Water (AAIW) is an essential component of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) contributing to balance the southward flow of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW). However, the role of AAIW in Holocene abrupt climate changes remains poorly understood. Here we reconstruct changes in the flow strength of AAIW based on a high temporal resolution paleocurrent record from the Southwest Atlantic. Superimposed on a slight increase in AAIW strength at ~ 7 ka BP, a succession of millennial-scale AAIW variations is recognized in our paleocurrent records indicating a highly variable intermediate water circulation throughout the Holocene. Although variations in the strength and position of the Southern Westerlies Winds (SWW) are proposed to greatly influence the formation and circulation of AAIW, we cannot confirm such a potential SWW-AAIW linkage since our records of AAIW flow strength do not correlate to Holocene shifts of the SWW across the Atlantic. However, our data shows a good correspondence with abrupt variations in the AMOC with enhanced (reduced) northward advection of AAIW during periods of reduced (enhanced) NADW circulation. These results provide evidence for a Holocene AAIW-NADW see-saw. Thus, although the exact forcing mechanism remains unresolved, we suggest that Holocene perturbations in AAIW exerted a significant impact on the AMOC.
