Investigating trends in Bering Strait transport
, 2023 Bering Strait transport is a key source of heat, freshwater, and nutrients for the Arctic. Moored observations indicate that transport has been increasing over the last decades. Recently, Danielson et al. (2020) have proposed a feedback mechanism by which increased sea surface temperatures (SST) in the Chukchi Sea would drive stronger ocean to ...

The Bering Strait Throughflow Component of the Global Mass, Heat and Freshwater Transport
Journal of Geophysical Research: OceansAs the only oceanic connection between the Pacific and Arctic‐Atlantic Oceans, Bering Strait throughflow carries a climatological northward transport of about 1 Sv, contributing to the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC).

Early Freeze-Up over the Bering Sea Controlled by the Aleutian Low
Remote Sensing, 2023 Early freeze-up affects the local marine environment and ecosystem throughout the entire Bering Sea. However, the process governing early freeze-up, which is responsible for the most significant interannual variation in the December sea ice area (SIA ...

Millennial-scale variability of marine productivity and terrigenous matter supply in the western Bering Sea over the past 180 kyr [PDF]
Climate of the Past, 2013 We used piston cores recovered in the western Bering Sea to reconstruct millennial-scale changes in marine productivity and terrigenous matter supply over the past ~180 kyr.

Bering Strait influences climate conditions [PDF]
Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2012 The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) acts as a heat conveyer belt, bringing warm tropical water northward in the Atlantic Ocean and carrying cold dense water back southward. Some studies have suggested that changes in AMOC could result in seesaw‐like climate changes between the North Atlantic and North Pacific, in which the North ...

Arctic Vessel Traffic in the Bering Strait [PDF]
, 2014 This brief examines the risks posed by increasing vessel traffic and outlines a series of mitigation measures that authorities can implement to protect all those who depend on the Bering Strait—wildlife and indigenous communities, as well as ships and ...

Transitions of social-ecological subsistence systems in the Arctic [PDF]
, 2017 Transitions of social-ecological systems (SES) expose governance systems to new challenges. This is particularly so in the Arctic where resource systems are increasingly subjected to global warming, industrial development and globalization which ...

Nesting ecology of an ice‐associated seabird, Kittlitz's murrelet, at the northern edge of its range
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.We studied the Kittlitz's murrelet, an ice‐associated seabird of conservation concern, at the northern edge of its range. Over a 2‐year period, we estimated nest density and success at 2 sites, captured and telemetered nesting murrelets, and tested the use of a thermal camera to improve nest detection.

The large‐scale freshwater cycle of the Arctic [PDF]
, 2006 This paper synthesizes our understanding of the Arctic\u27s large‐scale freshwater cycle. It combines terrestrial and oceanic observations with insights gained from the ERA‐40 reanalysis and land surface and ice‐ocean models. Annual mean freshwater input
