Enhanced climate variability in the tropics: a 200 000 yr annual record of monsoon variability from Pangea's equator
A continuous series of 209 000 evaporite varves from the equator of arid western Pangea (age = −255 ma), as a proxy for surface temperature, has a complete suite of Milankovitch cycles and harmonics as expected for a rectified reaction to precession-modulated insolation at the equator.
