Figure Lengend Snippet: Map of Pearson correlation coefficients derived from correlating the Barents Sea Opening (BSO) return-flow with the annual maximum sea ice area in spatial subsets of the Barents Sea, such as the white box. Hatching indicates correlation coefficients that are not statistically significant (99% confidence). Red lines depict sea ice edge (15% sea ice concentration) during annual maximum sea ice area in the Barents Sea from 1979 to 2019. Black contour lines depict bathymetry. The BSO and the Barents Sea Exit (BSX) are denoted as magenta lines.
