Short summary
Thirty years of in situ hydrographic measurements combined with satellite observations reveal that Atlantic Water flowing northward along Norway is cooling less than before. We find that reduced surface heat loss and faster advection are likely drivers, though their relative effect varies over time. These changes result in more ocean heat reaching the Arctic, with likely impacts on climate, sea ice, and marine ecosystems.
