The d18O  were tuned to the SST record by assigning the lowest (highest) d18O values of each year to the highest (lowest) SST. Age assignments were then linearly interpolated between these two annual anchor points using the Arand software package (P. Howell, personal commu- nication, 2002). A continuous monthly SST data set is available only as far back as 1970, so for age assignments before 1970 the lowest (highest) d18O and Sr/Ca values were assigned to March (August), March and August being the average times of highest and lowest SST, respectively, between 1970 and 1997
