abstract = "Negative excursions in the stable carbon isotopic composition
(\δ13C) at Atlantic intermediate to mid\‐depths are
common features of millennial\‐scale events named Heinrich
Stadials. The mechanisms behind these excursions are not yet fully
understood, but most hypotheses agree on the central role played
by the weakening of the Atlantic meridional overturning
circulation. Marine records registering millennial\‐scale
negative \δ 13C excursions in the Atlantic are mostly
restricted to the Heinrich Stadials of the last deglacial, while
the Heinrich Stadials of the last glacial are poorly studied.
Here, we constrain changes in bottom water ventilation in the
western tropical South Atlantic mid\‐depth during Heinrich
Stadials of the last glacial and deglacial by investigating marine
core M125\‐95\‐3. The concurrent decreases in
benthic foraminifera \δ13C and increases in bulk sediment
sulfur indicate an increased Northern Component Water (NCW)
residence time in the western tropical South Atlantic
mid\‐depth during Heinrich Stadials. Furthermore, a
coherent meridional pattern emerges from the comparison of our new
data to previously published mid\‐depth records from the
western South Atlantic. While our record shows the largest
negative \δ13C excursions during almost all Heinrich
Stadials, the western equatorialAtlantic showed medium and the
subtropical South Atlantic showed the smallest negative
excursions. This meridional pattern supports the notion that
during Heinrich Stadials, a reduction in the NCW \δ13C
source signal together with the accumulation of respired carbon at
NCW depths drove the negative \δ13C excursions. We suggest
that the negative \δ13C excursions progressively increase
along the NCW southwards pathway until the signal
dissipates/dilutes by mixing with Southern Component Water.",
