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 …

Dramatic declines in sea-ice cover in the Arctic Ocean in recent decades have the potential
to fundamentally alter marine ecosystems. Here we investigate changes in sea ice between …

Among the organisms that spread into and flourish in Arctic waters with rising temperatures
and sea ice loss are toxic algae, a group of harmful algal bloom species that produce potent …

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 …

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 …

Year-long time-series of temperature, salinity and velocity from 12 locations throughout the
Chukchi Sea from September 1990 to October 1991 document physical transformations and …

Survey data from the northern Bering and Chukchi sea continental shelves in August–
September 2012 and 2013 reveal inter-annual differences in the spatial structure of water …

We develop a conceptual model of the closely co-dependent Bering shelf, Bering Strait, and
Chukchi shelf circulation fields by evaluating the effects of wind stress over the North Pacific …

Pacific Water flows northward through Bering Strait and penetrates the Arctic Ocean
halocline throughout the Canadian Basin sector of the Arctic. In summer, Pacific Summer …

Abstract The central Arctic Ocean is not isolated, but tightly connected to the northern Pacific
and Atlantic Oceans. Advection of nutrient-, detritus-and plankton-rich waters into the Arctic …
