Journal ArticleDOI
Timing of blooms, algal food quality and Calanus glacialis reproduction and growth in a changing Arctic
TL;DR: An extensive field study in the Arctic shelf seas followed the seasonal biomass development of ice algae and phytoplankton and their food quality in terms of their relative PUFA content to identify a potential mismatch between the two primary production peaks of high-quality food and the reproductive cycle of key Arctic grazers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arctic sea ice in transformation: A review of recent observed changes and impacts on biology and human activity
Walter N. Meier,Greta K. Hovelsrud,Bob van Oort,Jeffrey R. Key,Kit M. Kovacs,Christine Michel,Christian Haas,Mats A. Granskog,Sebastian Gerland,Donald K. Perovich,Alexander Makshtas,James D. Reist +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the changes in sea ice are happening faster than models have projected and substantial uncertainties in the exact timing and high interannual variability will remain as sea ice decreases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipids and life strategy of Arctic Calanus
TL;DR: It is concluded that the Arctic Calanus species are herbivores, engineered to feed on the Arctic bloom, and that the timing of the bloom is the most important factor in determining the life strategies of the individual species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polar cod (Boreogadus saida) and capelin (Mallotus villosus) as key species in marine food webs of the Arctic and the Barents Sea
Haakon Hop,Harald Gjøsæter +1 more
TL;DR: Polar cod and capelin are key species in Arctic and sub-Arctic marine food webs, respectively, and the objective of this study is to compare and contrast the two species as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
High Latitude Changes in Ice Dynamics and Their Impact on Polar Marine Ecosystems
Mark A. Moline,Nina J. Karnovsky,Zachary W. Brown,George J. Divoky,Thomas K. Frazer,Charles A. Jacoby,Joseph J. Torres,William R. Fraser +7 more
TL;DR: Recent changes and trends in ice dynamics and the responses of marine ecosystems are reviewed and examples of ice‐dependent organisms and associated species from the Arctic and Antarctic are provided to illustrate the impacts of the temporal and spatial changes inIce dynamics.

Climate change 2001: The scientific basis. Contribution of Working Group I to the Third Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
David John Griggs,M. Noguer +1 more
TL;DR: The terms of reference of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) as discussed by the authors were defined by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP).
Book ChapterDOI
The Scientific Basis
TL;DR: In this paper, the topology of the tetrahedral linkage and the efficiency of space filling are compared for the various polymorphs of SiO2, and the displacive transformations from a more open high-temperature form (e.g., "high" or "h") to a denser form stable at lower temperatures (α quartz or cristobalite) are discussed.
Journal Article
The biology of calanoid copepods
TL;DR: This special volume covers in detail the biology of calanoid copepods, aquatic animals that live in both marine and fresh water, and are of prime importance in marine ecosystems as they form a direct link between phytoplankton and fish.
Journal ArticleDOI
North Atlantic–Nordic Seas exchanges
Bogi Hansen,Svein Østerhus +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the state of knowledge on the exchanges especially across the eastern part of the Greenland-Scotland Ridge, based on results from the ICES NANSEN (North Atlantic-Norwegian Sea Exchanges) project, from the Nordic WOCE project and from other sources.
