Element concentrations in tissues reveal spatial structure of Atlantic walrus management stocks
Differences in tissue element concentrations confirm geographic differentiation between 2 of Canada's walrus management stocks but reveal additional spatial structure within the largest stock that may have management implications. Abstract Ensuring harvested animal populations are managed at appropriate scales requires an understanding of underlying ...

Efforts to estimate plant productivity using satellite data can be frustrated by the presence of cloud cover. We developed a new method to overcome this problem, focussing on the high-arctic archipelago of Svalbard where extensive cloud cover during the ...

A Model for Quota Prices in the Norwegian Groundfish Fishery
ABSTRACT Tradable quotas support efficiency and value creation in fisheries. Quota values can provide useful information in several aspects, as they are related to the resource rent and may figure in estimates of natural capital. Further, willingness to pay for quota can shed light on management tradeoffs. Quotas in the Norwegian groundfish fishery are,

Bromine Enrichment Signal in Svalbard Shallow Cores Reflects Changes of Seasonal Sea Ice Variability
Abstract Bromine enrichment Brenr $\left(\mathrm{B}{\mathrm{r}}_{\mathrm{e}\mathrm{n}\mathrm{r}}\right)$ has been widely used as a proxy for past sea ice reconstructions. In this study, three firn cores drilled on Holtedahlfonna (Svalbard) were analyzed for trace elements. Excluding a single year data, a positive correlation was observed between Brenr $

El Niño Events Enhance Melting of Sea Ice in the West of Greenland
Abstract Using reanalysis data sets and numerical simulations, this study investigates the linkage between El Niño events and spring Arctic sea ice melt rate (AMR) in the west of Greenland. The results indicate that the accelerated spring AMR often corresponds to the previous winter's El Niño–like sea surface temperature anomalies.

Abstract The processes of ice incorporation into rock glaciers have been difficult to quantify in both permafrost and non‐permafrost conditions. Here, we develop a numerical model that regardless of the presence of permafrost, reveals how debris eroded from hillslopes and deposited on snow can add ice mass to rock glaciers in pulses.

Dissolved Black Carbon in North Cascades Snow, Meltwater and a Downstream River
Abstract Quantification of black carbon on snow in the Cascade Range is needed due to increasing wildfire intensity and frequency. Here, the benzenepolycarboxylic acid (BPCA) molecular method was used to measure dissolved black carbon (DBC) in snow, nearby rivers, streams, and supraglacial melt collected in 2022 and 2023 from Mount Baker and Mount ...
