New paper finds deep Arctic Ocean from 50,000 to 11,000 years ago was 1–2°C warmer than modern temperatures

The Hockey Schtick
"A new paper published in Nature Geoscience finds "From about 50,000 to 11,000 years ago, the central Arctic Basin from 1,000 to 2,500 meters deep was ... 1–2°C warmer than modern Arctic Intermediate Water." This finding is particularly surprising because it occurred during the last major ice age."
