Interannual variability of the Barents Sea branch water in the northeastern part of the Barents Sea and the St. Anna Trough

Frontiers in Marine Science
In this work, we describe the inter-annual variability of the Barents Sea branch water (BSBW), which is one of the main branches of the Atlantic water that flows from the North Atlantic to the Western Arctic.

April sea ice extent in the Barents Sea, 1850?2001 [PDF]

Polar Research, 2003
Three observational data sets are used to construct a continuous record (1850–2001) of April ice edge position in the Barents Sea: two sets of Norwegian ice charts (one from 1850 to 1949 and the other from 1966 to 2001) and Soviet aircraft reconnaissance ice extent charts from 1950 to 1966.

Giants in the cold: Morphological evidence for vascular heat retention in the viscera but not the skeletal muscle of the basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fewer than 50 of the over 30,000 extant species of fishes have developed anatomical specializations facilitating endothermy in specific body regions. The plankton‐feeding basking shark (Cetorhinus maximus), traditionally classified as an ectotherm, was recently shown to have regionally endothermic traits such as centralized red muscle (RM ...

On the background values of heavy metal content in bottom sediments of the Barents Sea [PDF]

Vestnik MGTU, 2017
Based on the long-term data the background content in the number of heavy metals in bottom sediments of the Barents Sea has been estimated. For the purpose to estimate the up-to-date state of the geochemical background the contents of heavy metals in ...

Genes, fish and fisheries: translating science into policy

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The 2024 Annual Symposium of the Fisheries Society of the British Isles reviewed the burgeoning impact of ‘omics’ technologies on fish ecology, management and forecasting. As with life sciences more generally, major advances in speed, cost‐effectiveness and breadth of applications in ‘omics’ has had profound societal and environmental impacts.

The influence of winter and summer atmospheric circulation on the variability of temperature and sea ice around Greenland

Tellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2016
Most peripheral seas of the Arctic Ocean have seen a pronounced rise in sea surface temperatures in the past century, and this signature of Arctic amplification in proximity to the land suggests that the observed marine and terrestrial changes might be ...

Glacial geomorphology of the central Barents Sea: Implications for the dynamic deglaciation of the Barents Sea Ice Sheet

Marine Geology, 2017
Contemporary climate change has resulted in great uncertainty in how glaciers and ice sheets around the Earth might evolve. It has long been appreciated that the contemporary West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) shares many similarities with the former Barents Sea Ice Sheet (BSIS).

A single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping panel for efficient genetic stock identification of the Teno river Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) population complex

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract A new single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panel for genetic stock identification in the Teno river Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., fishery was developed, with a view to improving on an existing microsatellite panel. Twenty‐two genetically differentiated reporting units were proposed based on population genetic analyses of 1212 individuals ...

On the discrepancy between observed and CMIP5 multi-model simulated Barents Sea winter sea ice decline

Nature Communications, 2017
The relative roles of external forcing versus internal variability in the Barents Sea winter sea ice decline since 1979 remain unconstrained. Here, the authors show that enhanced Atlantic heat transport into the Barents Sea associated with regional ...

Polar cod Boreogadus saida occurrence is driven by temperature at the margin of its distribution

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract With a warming Arctic, suitable habitat for polar cod Boreogadus saida (Lepechin 1774) is predicted to decrease. We investigated the changes in distribution of polar cod on the southern limit of its distribution in the Atlantic Ocean (around Iceland) during both autumn and spring after a recent period of warming in the area.
