Summary: The objective of this study is to investigate temporal relationships between changes in the Agulhas Current, fluctuations of NADW and sea surface temperature through the last interglacial (MIS 5), to establish timing between deep and surface water changes. The study will also produce regional maps of surface and deep water proxy indicators for the Holocene and the last glacial maximum to establish the spatial differences during these climate extremes.

总结：本研究的目的是调查在最后一次间冰期（MIS 5）的厄古拉斯电流的变化，NADW和海表温度的波动之间的时间关系，建立深层和地表水变化之间的时间。 这项研究还将绘制全新世和末次冰期最大期地表水和深水代用指标区域图，以确定这些极端气候期间的空间差异。
