Perspectives on future sea ice and navigability in the Arctic
The Cryosphere, 2021 . The retreat of sea ice is very significant in the Arctic under global warming. It is projected to continue and have great impacts on navigation. In this investigation, decadal changes in sea ice parameters were evaluated by multimodel from the Coupled ...

Summer warming explains widespread but not uniform greening in the Arctic tundra biome
Nature Communications, 2020 Arctic warming can influence tundra ecosystem function with consequences for climate feedbacks, wildlife and human communities. Yet ecological change across the Arctic tundra biome remains poorly quantified due to field measurement limitations and ...

DMS emissions from the Arctic marginal ice zone
Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2021 Phytoplankton blooms in the Arctic marginal ice zone (MIZ) can be prolific dimethylsulfide (DMS) producers, thereby influencing regional aerosol formation and cloud radiative forcing.

Sedimentary Ancient DNA Reveals Local Vegetation Changes Driven by Glacial Activity and Climate
Quaternary, 2023 Disentangling the effects of glaciers and climate on vegetation is complicated by the confounding role that climate plays in both systems. We reconstructed changes in vegetation occurring over the Holocene at Jøkelvatnet, a lake located directly ...

Borealization of the Arctic Ocean in Response to Anomalous Advection From Sub-Arctic Seas
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 An important yet still not well documented aspect of recent changes in the Arctic Ocean is associated with the advection of anomalous sub-Arctic Atlantic- and Pacific-origin waters and biota into the polar basins, a process which we refer to as ...

The International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean Version 4.0
Scientific Data, 2020 Bathymetry (seafloor depth), is a critical parameter providing the geospatial context for a multitude of marine scientific studies. Since 1997, the International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean (IBCAO) has been the authoritative source of ...

Microplastics in sea ice and seawater beneath ice floes from the Arctic Ocean
Scientific Reports, 2020 Within the past decade, an alarm was raised about microplastics in the remote and seemingly pristine Arctic Ocean. To gain further insight about the issue, microplastic abundance, distribution and composition in sea ice cores (n = 25) and waters ...

Faster Atlantic currents drive poleward expansion of temperate phytoplankton in the Arctic Ocean
Nature Communications, 2020 The Arctic marine biome, shrinking with increasing temperature and receding sea-ice cover, is tightly connected to lower latitudes through the North Atlantic. By flowing northward through the European Arctic Corridor (the main Arctic gateway where 80% of
