Short summary
The observed changes in the presented proxy records indicate variations in both the continental runoff and the marine influence, related to regional climatic variability. Therefore, we put forward the suggestion that global atmospheric changes (related to changes in SAMS and SACZ intensity) have made an impact on the hydrodynamics and, consequently, on the local sedimentation regime and the inner Uruguayan continental shelf over the past 1200 cal yr BP (AD 750–2000).
