                         largely influenced by climate changes arising from global warming. 
                         In this context, based on ensemble simulations with a coupled 
                         model we evaluate the meridional shift of a climate signal (i.e., 
                         a cold and fresh water input pulse generated from melting of 
                         positive Antarctic sea ice (ASI) extremes) towards the Tropical 
                         Atlantic Ocean (TAO). This oceanic signal propagated from Southern 
                         Ocean towards the equator through the upper layers due to an 
                         increase in its buoyance. Its northward shift has given by the 
                         Subantarctic Mode Water (SAMW) and Antarctic Intermediate Water 
                         (AAIW) flows, that inject cold and fresh mode/intermediate waters 
                         from into subtropical basin. The signal has reached low latitudes 
                         through the equatorial upwelling and spreads out southwards, 
                         through the upper branch of southern subtropical gyre. We 
                         concluded that 10 years of coupled simulations was enough time to 
                         propagate the climate signal generated by ASI positive extremes 
                         melting, which reached TOA around 2 year later. The oceanic 
                         connection between Southern Ocean and TAO is indeed established 
                         within the timescale analyzed in the study (10 years). 
                         Nonetheless, the period needed to completely dissipate the 
                         disturbance generated from ASI seems to be longer.",
