• The influence of Coriolis force driven water circulation on the palaeoenvironment of Hornsund (S Spitsbergen) over the last century 

      Pawłowska, Joanna; Zajączkowski, Marek; Szczuciński, Witold; Zaborska, Agata; Kucharska, Małgorzata; Jernas, Patrycja Ewa; Forwick, Matthias (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-04-22)
      The influence of the Coriolis force on the Hornsund fjord environment (southern Spitsbergen) was investigated in the marine sedimentary record from the last century. Due to the influence of the rotational effects, Atlantic and Arctic Water enter the fjord along the southern shore and exit along the northern shore. Thus, the sedimentary record from the southern part reflects the large‐scale hydrological ...
    • Multiproxy paleoceanographic study from the western Barents Sea reveals dramatic Younger Dryas onset followed by oscillatory warming trend 

      Łącka, Magdalena; Michalska, Danuta; Pawłowska, Joanna; Szymańska, Natalia; Szczuciński, Witold; Forwick, Matthias; Zajączkowski, Marek (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-09-24)
      The Younger Dryas (YD) is recognized as a cool period that began and ended abruptly during a time of general warming at the end of the last glacial. New multi-proxy data from a sediment gravity core from Storfjordrenna (western Barents Sea, 253 m water depth) reveals that the onset of the YD occurred as a single short-lived dramatic environment deterioration, whereas the subsequent warming was ...
    • Paleoceanography of the Northwestern Greenland Sea and Return Atlantic Current evolution, 35–4 kyr BP 

      Devendra, Dhanushka; Łącka, Magdalena; Telesiński, Maciej M.; Rasmussen, Tine Lander; Sztybor, Kamila; Zajączkowski, Marek (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-10)
      The flow of the Atlantic Water (AW) via the Return Atlantic Current (RAC) regulates the oceanographical conditions in the Northwestern (NW) Greenland Sea in the Fram Strait. As the intensity of the RAC might significantly influence both deep-water formation in the area and the stability of the Northeast Greenland Ice Sheet (NE GIS), knowledge of its variability in the past is important. Here we ...
