The deviation of delta (super 18) O records and Mg/Ca temperature estimates from thermocline-dwelling planktonic foraminifers suggests that local changes in salinity exerted a much stronger control on Pliocene TEP upper ocean water mass signatures than previously assumed. The most pronounced Pliocene change in TEP upper ocean stratification was the shoaling of the thermocline from approximately 4.8 to 4.0 Ma that was possibly triggered by changes in the configuration of low-latitude ocean gateways. During this time interval, mixed-layer temperatures and salinities remained relatively constant in contrast to a pronounced temperature ( approximately 6 degrees C) and salinity decrease at the bottom of the photic zone. This change led to a new state in the thermal structure of the TEP, as the thermocline remained relatively shallow until approximately 2.1 Ma.completedStratigraphyalkaline earth metalsbiostratigraphycalciumCenozoicchemical ratiosEast PacificForaminiferagatewaysgeochemistryInvertebrataisotope ratiosisotopesLeg 202magnesiummetalsMg/CamicrofossilsNeogeneO-18/O-16Ocean Drilling ProgramODP Site 1241oxygenPacific Oceanpaleo-oceanographypaleosalinitypaleotemperaturePlioceneProtistareconstructionSouth PacificSoutheast Pacificstable isotopesstratificationTertiarythermoclinetropical environmenturn:org.iodp:exp:202urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:202:site:1241urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:202urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignEnglishgeoscientificInformation-86.2700-86.27005.51005.5100Includes appendixapplication/pdfunknownSEDIS Publication Catalogue
