The Arctic sea-ice-scape is rapidly transforming. Increasing light penetration will initiate
earlier seasonal primary production. This earlier growing season may be accompanied by …

A rigorous synthesis of the sea-ice ecosystem and linked ecosystem services highlights that
the sea-ice ecosystem supports all 4 ecosystem service categories, that sea-ice ecosystems …

The main environmental factors driving spatial patterns, variability and change in primary
production (PP) in the Arctic Ocean are reviewed. While instantaneous PP rates are …

Observations from the last decade suggest an important role of sea ice in the global
biogeochemical cycles, promoted by (i) active biological and chemical processes within the …

Over the past two decades, with recognition that the ocean's sea-ice cover is neither
insensitive to climate change nor a barrier to light and matter, research in sea-ice …

The porous nature of sea ice not only provides a habitat for ice algae but also opens a
pathway for exchanges of organic matter, nutrients, and gases with the seawater below and …

Sparse in situ measurements and poor understanding of the impact of sea ice on air-sea gas
exchange introduce large uncertainties to models of polar oceanic carbon uptake. The eddy …

From sea‐ice formation in November 2007 to onset of ice melt in May 2008, we studied the
carbonate system in first‐year Arctic sea ice, focusing on the impact of calcium‐carbonate …

The air‐water exchange of trace gases such as CO2 is usually parameterized in terms of a
gas transfer velocity, which can be derived from direct measurements of the air‐sea gas flux …

The international and interdisciplinary sea-ice drift expedition “The Multidisciplinary drifting
Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate”(MOSAiC) was conducted from October 2019 to …
