      Because ice shelves respond to climatic forcing over a range of time scales, from years to millennia, an understanding of their long-term history is critically needed for predicting their future evolution. We present the first detailed reconstruction of the Larsen C Ice Shelf (LCIS), eastern Antarctic Peninsula (AP), based on data from sediment cores recovered from below and in front of the ice ...
    • Sea ice and primary production proxies in surface sediments from a High Arctic Greenland fjord: Spatial distribution and implications for palaeoenvironmental studies 

      Ribeiro, Sofia; Sejr, Mikael K.; Limoges, Audrey; Heikkilä, Maija; Andersen, Thorbjørn Joest; Tallberg, Petra; Weckström, Kaarina; Husum, Katrine; Forwick, Matthias; Dalsgaard, Tage; Massé, Guillaume; Seidenkrantz, Marit-Solveig; Rysgaard, Søren (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-01-23)
      In order to establish a baseline for proxy-based reconstructions for the Young Sound–Tyrolerfjord system (Northeast Greenland), we analysed the spatial distribution of primary production and sea ice proxies in surface sediments from the fjord, against monitoring data from the Greenland Ecosystem Monitoring Programme. Clear spatial gradients in organic carbon and biogenic silica contents reflected ...
