Biophysical changes in marine ecosystems of the Arctic and subarctic sectors of the Atlantic
and Pacific are now evident, driven primarily by sea ice loss, ocean warming and increases …

Continental slopes–steep regions between the shelf break and abyssal ocean–play key
roles in the climatology and ecology of the Arctic Ocean. Here, through review and …

Sea ice is an essential component of the Arctic climate system. The Arctic sea ice cover has
undergone substantial changes in the past 40+ years, including decline in areal extent in all …

Changes in gray whale (Eschrichtius robustus) phenology and distribution are related to
observed and hypothesized prey availability, bottom water temperature, salinity, sea ice …

Rapid climate warming and sea-ice loss have induced major changes in the sea surface
partial pressure of CO2 (p CO 2). However, the long-term trends in the western Arctic Ocean …

• All regions continue to exhibit positive trends over the 2003-21 period, with the strongest
trends in the Eurasian Arctic and Barents Sea.• During May 2021, a~ 1700 km long region …

Recent declines in sea ice extent and warming seawater temperatures in the Arctic have the
potential to impact regional and pan-Arctic marine ecosystems. To investigate marine …

Large carnivores are imperiled globally, and characteristics making them vulnerable to
extinction (eg, low densities and expansive ranges) also make it difficult to estimate …

The contiguous Arctic shelf is the green belt of the Arctic Ocean. Phytoplankton dynamics in
this environment are driven by extreme physical gradients and by rapid climate change …

Observations of the seasonal light field in the upper Arctic Ocean are critical to
understanding the impacts of changing Arctic ice conditions on phytoplankton growth in the …
