Map of the Baffin Bay showing the core location and CTD data from the study site. a Major surface currents in modern Baffin Bay; Baffin Current (BC), West Greenland Current (WGC), and Irminger Current (IC). Warm water currents are shown as red arrows and cold water currents as blue arrows. Coring site of SL 170 (marked with a yellow star) is located at 68° 58.15′ N 59° 23.58′ W. Location of the NGRIP is marked with a blue star and Disko Bay and Jakobshavn Isbræ are indicated on the map. Map data were retrieved from NSIDC69 and NOAA NGDC70. b CTD cast made at the coring site during the cruise MSM09/2 in September 200817 shows water temperature (°C) and salinity (‰) profiles
