The temperature differences between ODP Sites 1014 and 1016 (Delta SST (sub NEP) =SST (sub ODP1014) -SST (sub ODP1016) ) reflect the intensity of the California Current. Comparison of Delta SST (sub NEP) and SST derived from Core MD01-2421 reveals anti-phase variations: high Delta SST (sub NEP) (weakening of the California Current) corresponds to low SST at the Japan margin (southward displacement of the NW Pacific subarctic boundary and weakening of the Kuroshio Extension), and vice versa. This finding suggests that the intensity of the North Pacific subtropical gyre varies in response to precessional forcing, and that the response is linked to temporal changes in tropical ocean-atmosphere interactions.completedQuaternary geologyalkenonesbiomarkersCenozoicEast Pacificglacial environmentinterglacial environmentketonesLeg 167North PacificNortheast PacificOcean Drilling ProgramODP Site 1014ODP Site 1016organic compoundsPacific Oceanpaleo-oceanographypaleotemperaturePleistoceneQuaternarysubtropical environmentupper Pleistoceneurn:org.iodp:exp:167urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:167:site:1014urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:167urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:167:site:1016urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:167urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignJapanesegeoscientificInformation-122.1635-119.585332.500234.3220
