Driftwood as a tool for investigation of Holocene pan-Arctic sea ice dynamics

Abstract:

Arctic sea ice is rapidly declining in area and volume, with impacts on local and global climatic and ecological conditions. Without knowledge of past changes, this modern trend cannot be placed within a broader context that would aid future predictions for Arctic sea ice. Driftwood forms an under-utilised proxy for reconstructing Arctic sea ice extent over the Holocene (~12,000 yrs ago to present): its transport and deposition is determined by sea ice and surface current dynamics; making ...
