      Holding, Johnna; Duarte, Carlos M.; Arrieta, Jesús M.; Vaquer-Suyner3, Riser; Coello-Camba, Alexandra; Wassmann, Paul; Agusti, Susana (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Climate warming is especially severe in the Arctic, where the average temperature is increasing 0.4 C per decade, two to three times higher than the global average rate. Furthermore, the Arctic has lost more than half of its summer ice extent since 1980 and predictions suggest that the Arctic will be ice free in the summer as early as 2050, which could increase the rate of warming. Predictions ...

      Ocean acidification and warming are two main consequences of climate change that can directly affect biological and ecosystem processes in marine habitats. The Arctic Ocean is the region of the world experiencing climate change at the steepest rate compared with other latitudes. Since marine planktonic microorganisms play a key role in the biogeochemical cycles in the ocean it is crucial to ...
