Spatio-temporal hydrographic data from the Nordic Seas during spring over the period 1995–2010 were investigated in terms of the relative heat content (RHC) above the density surface σt = 27.9, chosen to capture the changes in Atlantic water (AW). Focusing on the Atlantic (eastern) domain of the Nor...
