Short summary
This study shows that tropical Pacific Ocean conditions shaped both precipitation and its isotopic signals in South America about 6,000 years ago. Using climate modelling and proxy records, we demonstrate how changes in tropical Pacific sea-surface temperatures, together with shifts in solar radiation, influenced past hydroclimate. These findings highlight the sensitivity of rainfall to Pacific Ocean variability, offering insights into how future climate change may affect rainfall patterns.
