Abstract

Both surface ocean temperatures (SST) and the oceanic circulation regime of the eastern Norwegian Sea show evidence of rapid changes during the last deglaciation (approx. 15 000-8000 yr BP). SST variations in response to influx of Atlantic surface water operated in phase with the Allerod-Younger Dryas-Holocene climatic variations. Deep water formation within the Norwegian Sea commenced at about 11 000 yr BP. -from Author
