Description
Summary:ene vers arch form Sea Deep Water is formed by sinking of cooling water masses in the Greenland and Iceland seas (e.g. Swift, 1986). Therefore the the short deployment time of sediment traps and difficult weather and sea–ice conditions restrict information about long-term The reconstruction of past productivity based on proxies in sediment cores is evenmore complex in this area due to dilution of et al., 2001; Matthiessen et al., 2001). An alternative to proxies based on degradable or soluble ma-terial is biogenic barium (Babiogenic, also named Baexcess), which is preserved as barite that is characterized by a high stability under
