Response to Comment on "Mixed-Layer Deepening During Heinrich Events: A Multi-Planktonic Foraminiferal {delta}18O Approach"

Harunur Rashid1,2* and Edward A. Boyle2

Hillaire-Marcel and de Vernal question our hypothesis of the "homogenization of the upper water masses" of the North Atlantic during Heinrich events 0, 1, and 4. Here, we respond to their specific points and synthesize data from the southern Labrador Sea cores, the basic tenet of Hillaire-Marcel and de Vernal's arguments.
