Pacific Interannual and Multidecadal Variability Recorded in δ18O of South American Summer Monsoon Precipitation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 129, Issue 17, 16 September 2024.
Abstract The South American summer monsoon (SASM) generates important hydroclimatic impacts in (sub‐)tropical South America and isotopic tracers recorded in paleoclimatic archives allow for assessing its long‐term response to Pacific variability prior to modern observations. Stable oxygen isotopes in precipitation integrate hydroclimatic changes during
