WUWT
Summary
A detailed analysis of the regional literature in Arctic Northeast
Canada and west coast Greenland West yields clear evidence for a warm
MWP in the region. The claimed widespread cooling during the MWP by
Young et al. 2015 is unsupported and unsustainable. It appears that the
authors have generalized a local glacier anomaly from a restricted area
on Baffin Island and erroneously interpreted it as a regional
phenomenon. Notably, there may be alternative interpretations for local
MWP glacier advances such as increased snowfall. Furthermore the review
demonstrates that surface waters in fjords may have locally cooled
during MWP times due to increased influx of cold melt water, displacing
warmer Atlantic water. In contrast, fjord bottom waters often show MWP
warming. ......"
