Station of de Souza et al. (2012). Below 2000 m, Atlantic δ30Si results from quasi-conservative mixing between NADW precursors (+1.7 to +1.85 ‰, Si-poor) and AABW (about +1.2 ‰, Si-rich); the contrast arises from diatom Si utilisation in the Southern Ocean. Water depth 1060 m; coordinates from Table 1. Table S1 calls it station 6, Table 1 station 7 (the only station of that cruise): coordinates of station 7.
