Picophytoplankton distribution along Khatanga Bay-shelf-continental slope environment gradients in the western Laptev Sea [PDF]
The spatial variations of photosynthetic picoplankton abundance and biomass and the picoplankton's contribution to chlorophyll a concentration along the transect from Khatanga Bay to the continental slope in the western part of the Laptev Sea were ...

Intense zonal freshwater transport in the Eurasian Arctic during ice-covered season revealed by in situ measurements [PDF]
The Kara Sea receives ~ 1/3 of total freshwater discharge to the Arctic Ocean, mainly from the large Ob and Yenisei rivers. The Ob-Yenisei plume covers wide area in the central part of the Kara Sea during ice-free season (June–October) and accumulates ...

The central Arctic Ocean is rapidly changing due to amplified warming and sea ice retreat. Nonetheless, it remains challenging to document and decipher impacts on key ecosystem processes such as primary production and pelagic-benthic coupling, due to ...

Introduction. To date, no unified well-established concepts have been developed regarding the oil and gas geological zoning of the Laptev Sea shelf, as well as other seas of the Eastern Arctic. Different groups of researchers define this region either as

Analyzing links between simulated Laptev Sea sea ice and atmospheric conditions over adjoining landmasses using causal-effect networks [PDF]
We investigate how sea ice interacts with the atmosphere over adjacent landmasses in the Laptev Sea region as a step towards a better understanding of the connection between sea ice and permafrost.

Halocline water modification and along-slope advection at the Laptev Sea continental margin [PDF]
A general pattern in water mass distribution and potential shelf–basin exchange is revealed at the Laptev Sea continental slope based on hydrochemical and stable oxygen isotope data from the summers 2005–2009. Despite considerable interannual variations,

Spatio-temporal variability of polynya dynamics and ice production in the Laptev Sea between the winters of 1979/80 and 2007/08 [PDF]
Polynyas in the Laptev Sea are examined with respect to recurrence and interannual wintertime ice production. We use a polynya classification method based on passive microwave satellite data to derive daily polynya area from long-term sea-ice ...

Interannual variability of surface and bottom sediment transport on the Laptev Sea shelf during summer [PDF]
Sediment transport dynamics were studied during ice-free conditions under different atmospheric circulation regimes on the Laptev Sea shelf (Siberian Arctic).

The impact of a thermodynamic sea-ice module in the COSMO numerical weather prediction model on simulations for the Laptev Sea, Siberian Arctic [PDF]
Previous versions of the Consortium for Small-scale Modelling (COSMO) numerical weather prediction model have used a constant sea-ice surface temperature, but observations show a high degree of variability on sub-daily timescales. To account for this, we

Impact of Laptev Sea flaw polynyas on the atmospheric boundary layer and ice production using idealized mesoscale simulations [PDF]
The interaction between polynyas and the atmospheric boundary layer is examined in the Laptev Sea using the regional, non-hydrostatic Consortium for Small-scale Modelling (COSMO) atmosphere model.
