Short summary

We show the seasonal δ¹⁸O data from the NEEM site in northwestern Greenland over the last 150 years. We found that the NEEM summer δ¹⁸O signal correlates well with summer temperature in western coastal Greenland, while the NEEM winter δ¹⁸O signal correlates well with sea ice concentration in Baffin Bay. In contrast with the winter δ¹⁸O data from central/southern Greenland, we find no linkage of NEEM winter δ¹⁸O to winter NAO.
