The influence of Southern Ocean surface buoyancy forcing on glacial‐interglacial changes in the global deep ocean stratification

Abstract Previous studies have suggested that the global ocean density stratification below ∼3000 m is approximately set by its direct connection to the Southern Ocean surface density, which in turn is constrained by the atmosphere. Here the role of Southern Ocean surface forcing in glacial‐intergla...
