Dinoflagellate cyst assemblages inshore and offshore Svalbard reflecting their modern hydrography and climate
Thirty-six seabed samples from inshore and offshore Svalbard and the northern part of the Barents Sea were collected for dinoflagellate cyst (dinocyst) analysis. Svalbard is an important locality representing the distal influence of an attenuated North Atlantic Current, and crucial to the understand...
