Culturable diversity of Arctic phytoplankton during pack ice melting [PDF]
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. Different isolation strategies were applied, including flow cytometry cell sorting, manual single cell pipetting, and ...

Thin and transient meltwater layers and false bottoms in the Arctic sea ice pack—Recent insights on these historically overlooked features [PDF]
The rapid melt of snow and sea ice during the Arctic summer provides a significant source of low-salinity meltwater to the surface ocean on the local scale.

Winter Sightings of Marine Mammals in Arctic Pack Ice [PDF]
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. Hooded seals were sighted along the ice edge in February, but in late March adults with pups were seen.

A Submarine Sonar Study of Arctic Pack Ice [PDF]
AbstractA continuous profile of the Arctic Ocean ice canopy from Spitsbergen to the North Pole was made with 48 kHz echo sounders mourned on a nuclear submarine. A semi-automatic digitizer was used to measure coordinates from the records at a frequency of about 1 000 points per linear kilometre of track.

Hydraulic controls of summer Arctic pack ice albedo [PDF]
Linkages between albedo, surface morphology, melt pond distribution, and properties of first‐year and multiyear sea ice have been studied at two field sites in the North American Arctic between 1998 and 2001. It is shown that summer sea‐ice albedo depends critically on surface melt‐pond hydrology, controlled by melt rate, ice permeability, and ...

Future sea ice weakening amplifies wind-driven trends in surface stress and Arctic Ocean spin-up. [PDF]
Arctic 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.

On the relationship between local stresses and strains in Arctic pack ice [PDF]
Local ice strains and in situ ice stresses were simultaneously measured on the Coordinated Eastern Arctic Experiment (CEAREX). The experiment took place in the fall of 1988 and was centered about an ice-strengthened ship moored to a multi-year floe in the pack ice northeast of Spitsbergen. During the period of data collection, which extended from early

Multiscale mushy layer model for Arctic marginal ice zone dynamics. [PDF]
Perhaps the most dynamic component of the Arctic sea ice cover is the marginal ice zone (MIZ), the transitional region between dense pack ice to the north and open ocean to the south.

sea-ice arching and multiple flow States of Arctic pack ice [PDF]
AbstractFlow of ice through narrow channels is Significantly affected by the amount of Shear Strength in plastic rheologies used in Sea-ice models as well as in reality. When thermodynamics is added to this problem, the capability of multiple flow States for the Same forcing through narrow passages arises.
