The Holocene History of Nares Strait: Transition from Glacial Bay to Arctic-Atlantic Throughflow [PDF]

Oceanography, 2011
Retreat of glacier ice from Nares Strait and other straits in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago after the end of the last Ice Age initiated an important connection between the Arctic and the North Atlantic Oceans, allowing development of modern ocean ...

Similarity in phytoplankton photophysiology among under-ice, marginal ice, and open water environments of Baffin Bay (Arctic Ocean)

Elem Sci Anth, 2023
As sea ice is declining rapidly in the Arctic, phytoplankton are being exposed to very different light regimes. Here we investigated how phytoplankton photoacclimate in three different irradiance regimes: under the ice, in the marginal ice zone, and in open water. We sampled from these three regimes in spring–summer 2016 during the Green Edge cruise in

Refinement of the Quaternary seismic stratigraphy and analysis of buried glacial channels on the Labrador Shelf

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Laurentide Ice Sheet covered vast areas of North America during the Wisconsinan, including the Labrador Shelf, off the coast of eastern Canada. The shelf is characterized by glacial cross‐shelf troughs, which have been considered as predominantly eroded by the last ice advance.

Conservation genomics of Pecos pupfish (Cyprinodon pecosensis)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pecos pupfish, Cyprinodon pecosensis, is an imperilled freshwater fish found in arid regions of Texas and New Mexico (USA). The species faces multiple challenges to persistence including reductions in suitable habitat, water shortages, as well as hybridization and competition with an introduced congener (sheepshead minnow, C.

Decadal Bowhead Whale Baleen Stable Isotope and Hormone Chronologies (1985–2010) Provide Insight Into Arctic Ecosystem Change

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Long‐term chronologies constructed from individual bowhead baleen plates reveal stable isotope declines consistent with regional Arctic food web or productivity changes superimposed on global anthropogenic C and N inputs, while relatively stable hormone concentrations over the same period provide no evidence of a concomitant increase in physiological ...

Limited connectivity of zooplankton communities across the Labrador Front: role of physical oceanography, insights from individual motility

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Near the western margin of the highly productive Labrador Sea, the Labrador Current creates a large and steep oceanographic front between the Arctic‐origin shelf waters and the Atlantic offshore waters (i.e. the Labrador Front), presumably segregating or accumulating plankton communities.

Enabling Under Ice Glider Operations: A Backseat Driver Approach

Journal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 5, Page 3292-3311, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Polar Oceans are key locations for forcing global ocean circulation, influencing both global climate and biogeochemical cycles. Due to restricted access to these seasonally and perennially ice‐covered regions, these areas are severely undersampled.

Vanadium Isotopic Compositions of the High‐3He/4He Baffin Island Lavas

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract The isotopic composition of vanadium (V) in hotspot lavas provides new insight into the source of deep mantle heterogeneities. We measured V isotopic compositions in Paleogene Baffin Island lavas, which erupted above the Iceland plume head, to constrain the mantle plume source. These lavas have V isotopic compositions that are lighter (−0.96 ±

Impact of Heterogeneous Mantle Viscosity on the Glacial Isostatic Adjustment Correction for GRACE(‐FO): Implications for Surface Mass Trends

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Accurate interpretation of time‐variable gravity from GRACE (‐FO) requires correction for glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA), which has a gravitational signal similar in magnitude to that of contemporary hydrological and cryospheric mass change.

Enhanced Retrieval of Spring Snow Depth Over Pan‐Arctic Sea Ice From AMSR2 Observations for 2013–2023 Using Multi‐Model Machine Learning

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Snow on sea ice modulates the Earth's radiation budget and sea ice mass balance, yet satellite retrievals of Arctic snow depth remain subject to substantial algorithmic uncertainty. We develop a multi‐model machine learning (ML) framework for retrieving spring snow depth over Arctic sea ice from Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2).
