The location map of site U1461 with 200 m water depth contour from ETOPO dataset (Amante and Eakins 2009) and a monthly rate of precipitation in the tropical Indo-Pacific region. Rivers are shown with thin black lines (data obtained from a Global Self-consistent, Hierarchical, High-resolution Geography Database after Wessel and Smith 1996). Austral summer daily precipitation data were obtained from the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (Huffman et al. 1997), indicating that Site U1461 locates the southern limit of rain belt. Locations of the discussed records from Ball Gown Cave (Denniston et al. 2013), MD00-2361, and FR10/19-GC17 (De Deckker et al. 2014; Stuut et al. 2014) are shown on the map. Figures were drawn using The Generic Mapping Tools (Wessel et al. 2013)
