Abstract The Arctic Ocean is undergoing drastic changes in its sea ice cover, but is also optically complex. Observations from summer 2022 across the western Eurasian Basin, show increased colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) absorption from terrestrial‐derived runoff within the Transpolar Drift (TPD) in the Amundsen Basin, extending down to a depth

Mapping in the Arctic Ocean in Support of a Potential Extended Continental Shelf [PDF]
Under Article 76 of The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS; U.N. 1997), coastal states may, under certain circumstances, gain sovereign rights over the resources of the seafloor and subsurface of “submerged extensions of their ...

Diazotroph‐Driven 210Po Scavenging Reveals a Potential Radiotracer for Marine Nitrogen Fixation
Abstract The role of phytoplankton, particularly diazotrophs, in affecting in situ 210Po scavenging has been little investigated. Here, we first report an enhanced 210Po deficit in a cyclonic eddy core relative to its edge in the subtropical Pacific, coinciding with an elevated integrated nitrogen fixation rate (NFR).

N2O dynamics in the western Arctic Ocean during the summer of 2017
The western Arctic Ocean (WAO) has experienced increased heat transport into the region, sea-ice reduction, and changes to the WAO nitrous oxide (N2O) cycles from greenhouse gases.

Differential Drivers of Thermogenic and Bulk Dissolved Organic Matter in the Indian Ocean
Abstract The oceanic dissolved organic matter (DOM) pool contains a substantial fraction of recalcitrant carbon, with thermogenic organic compounds representing a chemically distinct, long‐lived component. However, the distribution and transformation of these compounds remain poorly constrained in the Indian Ocean, a key basin of the global overturning

Capelin Size, Condition, and Abundance Through Multiple Heatwaves in Alaska
ABSTRACT Capelin (Mallotus spp.) are pelagic forage fishes that can be especially abundant in sub‐arctic marine ecosystems and are important prey for upper trophic‐level consumers. Abundance and distribution of capelin have been linked to ocean temperature, but the magnitude and directionality of thermal sensitivity can vary regionally.
