    • Earlier sea-ice melt extends the oligotrophic summer period in the Barents Sea with low algal biomass and associated low vertical flux 

      Kohlbach, Doreen; Goraguer, Lucie; Bodur, Yasemin V.; Müller, Oliver; Amargant Arumí, Martí; Blix, Katalin; Bratbak, Gunnar; Chierici, Melissa; Dabrowska, Anna Maria; Dietrich, Ulrike; Edvardsen, Bente; Garcia, Laura; Gradinger, Rolf Rudolf; Hop, Haakon; Jones, Elizabeth Marie; Øyvind, Lundesgaard; Olsen, Lasse Mork; Reigstad, Marit; Saubrekka, Karoline; Tatarek, Agnieszka; Wiktor, Josef Maria; Wold, Anette; Assmy, Philipp (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2023-03-27)
      The decrease in Arctic sea-ice extent and thickness as a result of global warming will impact the timing, duration, magnitude and composition of phytoplankton production with cascading effects on Arctic marine food-webs and biogeochemical cycles. Here, we elucidate the environmental drivers shaping the composition, abundance, biomass, trophic state and vertical flux of protists (unicellular eukaryotes), ...
    • The Influence of Sea Ice Cover and Atlantic Water Advection on Annual Particle Export North of Svalbard 

      Dybwad, Christine Schumann; Lalande, Catherine; Bodur, Yasemin V.; Henley, Sean; Cottier, Finlo Robert; Ershova, Elizaveta; Hobbs, Laura; Last, Kim S.; Dabrowska, Anna Maria; Reigstad, Marit (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-04)
      The Arctic Ocean north of Svalbard has recently experienced large sea ice losses and the increasing prominence of Atlantic water (AW) advection. To investigate the impact of these ongoing changes on annual particle export, two moorings with sequential sediment traps were deployed in ice-free and seasonally ice-covered waters on the shelf north (NSv) and east (ESv) of Svalbard, collecting sinking ...
