Microplastic pollution is a major environmental concern and the subject of a rapidly growing
body of research. Much of this research has focused on the direct effects of microplastics on …

Accelerated glacier and ice sheet retreat and thinning in recent decades has profound
consequences for catchment sediment supply with attendant repercussions for nutrient …

Freshwater discharge from glaciers is increasing across the Arctic in response to
anthropogenic climate change, which raises questions about the potential downstream …

Silica is an essential element for marine life and plays a key role in the biogeochemistry of
the ocean. Glacial activity stimulates rock weathering, generating dissolved silica that is …

This study describes seasonal patterns and proposes likely drivers of an unusual
phytoplankton primary production pattern in the outer-sill region of a tidewater outlet glacier …

The Arctic marine system is large and heterogeneous, harsh and remote, and now changing
very rapidly, all of which contribute to our current inadequate understanding of its basic …

Iron is an essential nutrient for phytoplankton, but low concentrations limit primary
production and associated atmospheric carbon drawdown in large parts of the world's …

The patchy distribution of microplastics (MP) and their size range similar to planktonic
organisms, are likely to have major ecological consequences, through MP ingestion, food …

Strandings of marine animals are relatively common in marine systems. However, the
underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. We observed mass strandings of krill in …

Water turbidity can significantly influence interspecific interactions in aquatic ecosystems.
We tested the hypothesis that the turbidity gradient significantly differentiates the dynamics …
