Abstract The Arctic Ocean is a fundamental node in the global hydrological cycle and the
ocean's thermohaline circulation. We here assess the system's key functions and …

The shallow continental shelves and slope of the Amerasian Arctic are strongly influenced
by nutrient-rich Pacific waters advected over the shelves from the northern Bering Sea into …

When sea ice forms it scavenges and concentrates particulates from the water column,
which then become trapped until the ice melts. In recent years, melting has led to record …

Year-round in situ Bering Strait mooring data (1990–2015) document a long-term increase
(∼ 0.01 Sv/yr) in the annual mean transport of Pacific waters into the Arctic. Between 2002 …

A temperature and salinity hydrographic profile climatology is assembled, evaluated for data
quality, and analyzed to assess changes of the Bering and Chukchi Sea continental shelves …

The Arctic Ocean is, on a volume basis, the ocean with the highest terrestrial input in terms
of freshwater and organic matter. The drainage areas of the Arctic contain more than half of …

Perhaps more than in any other ocean, our understanding of the continental shelves of the
Arctic Mediterranean is decidedly disciplinary, regional and fractured, and this shortcoming …

At present, although seasonal sea-ice cover mitigates atmosphere-ocean gas exchange, the
Arctic Ocean takes up carbon dioxide (CO 2) on the order of− 66 to− 199 Tg C year− 1 (10 …

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 …

Mooring and shipboard data collected between 1992 and 1995 delineate the circulation
over the north central Chukchi shelf. Previous studies indicated that Pacific waters crossed …
