Ecosystem characteristics and processes facilitating persistent macrobenthic biomass hotspots and associated benthivory in the Pacific Arctic
Abstract The northern Bering and Chukchi Seas are areas in the Pacific Arctic characterized
by high northward advection of Pacific Ocean water, with seasonal variability in sea ice …

Status and trends in the structure of Arctic benthic food webs
Ongoing climate warming is causing a dramatic loss of sea ice in the Arctic Ocean, and it is
projected that the Arctic Ocean will become seasonally ice-free by 2040. Many studies of …

A synthesis of year-round interdisciplinary mooring measurements in the Bering Strait (1990–2014) and the RUSALCA years (2004–2011)
RA Woodgate, KM Stafford, FG Prahl - Oceanography, 2015 - JSTOR
The flow through the Bering Strait, the only Pacific-Arctic oceanic gateway, has dramatic
