 Annual average salinity (PSU) for the Eastern Pacific Warm Pool (EPWP) region and the western Caribbean [World Ocean Atlas, 1998]. Pacific sites (ME0005A-43JC: 7? 51.35?N, 83? 36.50?W, 1368 m and ODP Site 1242: 7? 51.35?N, 83? 36.42?W, 1364 m) used in this study are indicated. Inset: T-S diagram [World Ocean Atlas, 1998] of the EPWP region with isopycnals (dashed) and predicted δ18Oc isolines (solid) calculated from temperature and salinity [Bemis et al., 1998] assuming modern regional δ18Osw-S [Benway and Mix, 2004].
