Arctic sea ice melt leads to atmospheric new particle formation
Scientific Reports, 2017 Atmospheric new particle formation (NPF) and growth significantly influences climate by supplying new seeds for cloud condensation and brightness. Currently, there is a lack of understanding of whether and how marine biota emissions affect aerosol-cloud ...

The evolution of light and vertical mixing across a phytoplankton ice-edge bloom
Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2019 During summer, phytoplankton can bloom in the Arctic Ocean, both in open water and under ice, often strongly linked to the retreating ice edge. There, the surface ocean responds to steep lateral gradients in ice melt, mixing, and light input, shaping the

Arctic Cloud Radiative Forcing in Contemporary Atmospheric Reanalyses [PDF]
Arctic clouds play an important role in modifying the surface energy balance. In the Arctic, clouds are thought to influence the underlying sea ice cover through changing downwelling longwave radiative fluxes to the surface and through the selective ...

Late spring bloom development of pelagic diatoms in Baffin Bay
Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2019 The Arctic Ocean is particularly affected by climate change, with changes in sea ice cover expected to impact phytoplankton primary production. During the Green Edge expedition, the development of the late spring–early summer diatom bloom was studied in ...

Observations of sea ice and icebergs from satellite radar altimeters [PDF]
, 1984 Satellite radar altimeters can make useful contributions to the study of sea ice both by enhancing observations from other instruments and by providing a unique probe of ocean-ice interaction in the Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ).
