Radiocarbon ages, clay mineral content and planktic foraminifera counts of sediment cores from the SW Barents Sea
Detailed investigations of the distribution of clay minerals of Late Glacial-Holocene sediments from the SW Barents Sea provide important new information about the provenance and transport paths of the sediments. This information leads to better understanding of the onset of the last deglaciation an...

Detailed investigations of the distribution of clay minerals of Late Glacial-Holocene sediments from the SW Barents Sea provide important new information about the provenance and transport paths of the sediments. This information leads to better understanding of the onset of the last deglaciation and subsequent advances/retreats of the Barents Sea- and Fennoscandian Ice Sheets. The results show interaction and changes in the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet and Bj0rn0yrenna Ice Stream during the last deglaciation. High illite content and maximum kaolinite content (>18700 cal yr B.P.) indicate glacial erosion from both the Fennoscandian Ice Sheet and Bjornoyrenna Ice Stream (LGM II). The occurrence of a C. reniforme dominated benthic foraminiferal assemblage (~18700 cal yr B.P.) indicates that the northern most cores site in Ingoydjupet had already been deglaciated and was probably situated in a glacier distal environment.
