Environmental changes for the past ca. 50 years were studied in a short sediment core from inner Krossfjorden, Svalbard, investigating benthic foraminifera and stable isotopes (delta O-18, delta C-13). A depth-age model based on anthropogenic Cs-137 time markers indicates that record covers the peri...
