Diatom percentage abundances and sea surface temperature reconstruction for core AI07-06G, from Trinity Bay, Newfoundland

Due to the shortness of available records, the longterm patterns of climate variability in the Labrador Sea and Newfoundland region are not clear. Here, a diatom-based reconstruction of summer sea-surface temperature (SST) developed from Trinity Bay, Newfoundland, provides insight into variations of SST since 7.2 cal ka BP in the southwestern Labrador Sea. The results show that the Holocene Thermal Maximum (HTM) lasted until c. 5.2 cal ka BP, which was followed by a gradual cooling trend overprinted by centennial temperature fluctuations of 1-2°C.
