Arctic freshwater outflow suppressed Nordic Seas overturning and oceanic heat transport during the Last Interglacial

Nature Communications
The Last Interglacial period (LIG) was characterized by a long-term Arctic atmospheric warming above the preindustrial level. The LIG thus provides a case study of Arctic feedback mechanisms of the cryosphere-ocean circulation-climate system under warm ...
