Description
Summary:One of the achievements of the IPY was to foster an unprecedented amount of research initiatives aiming at studying recent (Holocene) changes in ocean circulation and climate in the subarctic and arctic domains. Paleo-investigations offer invaluable information on natural environmental changes at decadal to millennial scale, as well as on the processes driving them. We hereby present some recent results based on proxy records from circum Icelandic areas.
