Platelet Ice Under Arctic Pack Ice in Winter [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 The formation of platelet ice is well known to occur under Antarctic sea ice, where subice platelet layers form from supercooled ice shelf water. In the Arctic, however, platelet ice formation has not been extensively observed, and its formation and ...

Future sea ice weakening amplifies wind-driven trends in surface stress and Arctic Ocean spin-up [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsArctic sea ice mediates atmosphere-ocean momentum transfer, which drives upper ocean circulation. How Arctic Ocean surface stress and velocity respond to sea ice decline and changing winds under global warming is unclear.

Low Density of Top Predators (Seabirds and Marine Mammals) in the High Arctic Pack Ice [PDF]
Scientifica, 2016 The at-sea distribution of top predators, seabirds and marine mammals, was determined in the high Arctic pack ice on board the icebreaker RV Polarstern in July to September 2014. In total, 1,620 transect counts were realised, lasting 30 min each.

Culturable diversity of Arctic phytoplankton during pack ice melting [PDF]
Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2020 Massive phytoplankton blooms develop at the Arctic ice edge, sometimes extending far under the pack ice. An extensive culturing effort was conducted before and during a phytoplankton bloom in Baffin Bay between April and July 2016.

The seeding of ice algal blooms in Arctic pack ice: The multiyear ice seed repository hypothesis [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, 2017 Source at http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/2016JG003668 During the Norwegian young sea ICE expedition (N-ICE2015) from January to June 2015 the pack ice in the Arctic Ocean north of Svalbard was studied during four drifts between 83° and 80°N.

Sympagic Fauna in and Under Arctic Pack Ice in the Annual Sea-Ice System of the New Arctic [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 A strong decline and thinning of the Arctic sea-ice cover over the past five decades has been documented. The former multiyear sea-ice system has largely changed to an annual system and with it the dynamics of sea-ice transport across the Arctic Ocean ...

Winter Sightings of Marine Mammals in Arctic Pack Ice [PDF]
ARCTIC, 1987 There is limited information about the winter distribution of some arctic marine mammals. In February-March 1976 six species of marine mammals were sighted in the pack ice of Baffin Bay and Davis Strait.

Oxygen fluxes beneath Arctic land-fast ice and pack ice: towards estimates of ice productivity [PDF]
Polar Biology, 2018 Sea-ice ecosystems are among the most extensive of Earth's habitats; yet its autotrophic and heterotrophic activities remain poorly constrained. We employed the in situ aquatic eddy-covariance (AEC) O-2 flux method and laboratory incubation techniques ...
