Grazing by sea urchins is a potential co‐driver of Greenland kelp forest distribution

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Grazing by sea urchins is a main driver of kelp forest dynamics causing shifts from kelp forests to urchin barrens in the temperate region but there is limited information on such patterns from the Arctic region. Based on information from 132 underwater video transects along Greenland's West Coast at 59.9–77.8°N, we explored the distribution ...

The thick-billed murre (Uria lomvia) in Northwest Greenland (Avanersuaq) relies on Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) in a changing climate

open access: yesArctic Science
Considering seabirds as indicators of environmental change, we compared thick-billed murre (Uria lomvia (Linnaeus, 1758)) adult and chick diet in the North Water polynya region, NW Greenland, during 1997 and 2023.

Autosub under ice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Autosub made headlines recently when it became trapped under 200m of ice in Antarctica.Here we explore the ideas behind the £5.86 million research programme, and look back at an earlier expedition which took place last summer off the coast of ...

From temperate to polar waters: Transition to non‐cyanobacterial diazotrophy upon entering the Atlantic gateway of the Arctic Ocean

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Nitrogen fixation, the microbial reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia, is increasingly recognized to occur in the Arctic Ocean. However, knowledge about the composition, biogeography, abundance, and ecology of nitrogen‐fixing organisms (diazotrophs) is poor.

The social and organisational factors shaping acceptability of a self-management education and exercise intervention for people with hip or knee osteoarthritis in Greenland

open access: yesInternational Journal of Circumpolar Health
This study aimed to explore the experiences and perspectives of people with osteoarthritis attending the “Osteoarthritis School” (OA School) in Nuuk, Greenland to generate insights and lessons that can inform the development of self-management education ...

Abrupt decline of microplankton species richness linked to coastal inflow in an Arctic fjord

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract Species richness can be important for the functioning and resilience of marine ecosystems, with planktonic protists forming the base of the marine food web. Climate change‐driven shifts in water mass distributions are projected to alter plankton diversity.

Effects of increasing hydrostatic pressures on marine microbial enzymatic activities

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, EarlyView.
Abstract High hydrostatic pressure is characteristic of the deep ocean and is presumed to influence microbial functions and viability. However, marine microbial processes are typically measured only at atmospheric pressure (0.1 MPa), limiting our understanding of pressure effects on the activities of microbes that sink as part of the biological carbon ...

Cluster Analysis of Thermal Icequakes Using the Seismometer to Investigate Ice and Ocean Structure (SIIOS): Implications for Ocean World Seismology [PDF]

open access: yes
Ocean Worlds are of high interest to the planetary community due to the potential habitability of their subsurface oceans. Over the next few decades several missions will be sent to ocean worlds including the Europa Clipper, Dragonfly, and possibly a ...
