Fig. 2. Upstream and downstream path of the North Atlantic Current in the Arctic.
(A) Reconstructed August temperature in the Vøring Plateau (25), compared to AMV. (B) High-resolution IRD on the Eastern Fram Strait [core MSM5/5-712 (28)]. The IRD data were detrended to remove the neoglacial cooling trend. (C) C. neoteretis, a proxy for warm Atlantic waters in Western Fram Strait (core PS93/025) (29). (D) N. labradorica, a proxy for chilled Atlantic waters from core PS2641-4 (30) and IRD reported in Denmark Strait (32). The AMV is filtered by a 21-year Gaussian filter, and the gray-shaded area is the 95% confidence level of the reconstruction (23).
