Figure 1. Low latitude atmospheric circulation and high latitude temperature records spanning the time interval during which the 74 ka Toba super-eruption occurred.

(a) The NGRIP ice core δ18O record, (b) the SC03 stalagmite δ18O record from Secret Cave, Gunung Mulu National Park, Borneo32, (c) the El Condor Cave (ELC) stalagmite δ18O record from northern Peru6, and (d) the EDML δ18O record from Antarctica33. The records are arranged by latitude. The grey box indicates the timing of the Toba supereruption at 73.72 ka BP. The ice core records are synchronised on the AICC2012 timescale, and both stalagmite records are dated independently using 230Th dating.
