TL;DR: Evidence suggests that under-ice phytoplankton blooms may be more widespread over nutrient-rich Arctic continental shelves and that satellite-based estimates of annual primary production in these waters may be underestimated by up to 10-fold.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that deep convection can occur in this region when the North Atlantic Oscillation Index is high, which is consistent with observations and differs significantly from those known to operate in the Labrador and Mediterranean seas.

TL;DR: In this article, a time series of meteorological surface layer observational data taken on board the R/V Knorr was compared with model analysis data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasting (ECMWF) and the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the spatial distribution of LSW and its inferred spreading rate are inconsistent with a single source, and that the combination of oceanic and atmospheric conditions that lead to convection in the Labrador Sea is present as well east of Greenland.

TL;DR: In the Chukchi Sea, a large phytoplankton bloom was observed beneath fully consolidated pack ice and extended from the ice edge to 4100 km into the pack.
