Under-ice phytoplankton blooms: Shedding light on the “invisible” part of Arctic primary production
The growth of phytoplankton at high latitudes was generally thought to begin in open waters

A tale of two basins: An integrated physical and biological perspective of the deep Arctic Ocean
This review paper integrates the current knowledge, based on available literature, on the
physical and biological conditions of the Amerasian and Eurasian basins (AB, EB) of the …

Photosynthetic production in the central Arctic Ocean during the record sea-ice minimum in 2012
The ice-covered central Arctic Ocean is characterized by low primary productivity due to light
and nutrient limitations. The recent reduction in ice cover has the potential to substantially …

High Levels of Microplastics in the Arctic Sea Ice Alga Melosira arctica, a Vector to Ice-Associated and Benthic Food Webs
Plastic pollution has become ubiquitous with very high quantities detected even in
ecosystems as remote as Arctic sea ice and deep-sea sediments. Ice algae growing …

Seasonal evolution of light transmission distributions through Arctic sea ice
Light transmission through sea ice is a critical process for energy partitioning at the polar
atmosphere‐ice‐ocean boundary. Transmission of sunlight strongly impacts sea ice melting …

Effects of ice-algal aggregate export on the connectivity of bacterial communities in the central Arctic Ocean
In summer 2012, Arctic sea ice declined to a record minimum and, as a consequence of the
melting, large amounts of aggregated ice-algae sank to the seafloor at more than 4,000 m …

[HTML][HTML] Algal hot spots in a changing Arctic Ocean: Sea-ice ridges and the snow-ice interface
During the N-ICE2015 drift expedition north-west of Svalbard, we observed the
establishment and development of algal communities in first-year ice (FYI) ridges and at the …

Chytrid fungi distribution and co-occurrence with diatoms correlate with sea ice melt in the Arctic Ocean
Global warming is rapidly altering physicochemical attributes of Arctic waters. These
changes are predicted to alter microbial networks, potentially perturbing wider community …

Seasonal patterns of near-bottom chlorophyll fluorescence in the eastern Chukchi Sea: 2010–2019
Abstract The Chukchi Sea consists of a broad, shallow (< 45 m) shelf that is seasonally
(November–July) covered by sea ice. This study characterizes the seasonal patterns of near …

Floating microplastic inventories in the southern Beaufort Sea, Arctic Ocean
The microplastics inflow into the Arctic Ocean may increase environmental stress on the
Arctic marine ecosystem on the Pacific side, where sea ice has been significantly reduced …
