Miocene restriction of the Pacific-North Atlantic throughflow strengthened Atlantic overturning circulation

During the Miocene, the Central American seaway was not closed, allowing low-salinity Pacific water to potentially weaken the Atlantic circulation. A new, continuous Nd isotope record shows that there was no direct intermediate water mass export from the Caribbean to the Florida Strait and thus, the...
