High-latitude surface temperature estimates from thermal satellite data.
(1997)The surface temperature of the polar regions controls sea ice growth, snow melt, and surface-atmosphere energy exchange. However, our limited knowledge of polar surfaces and atmospheres has hampered the development of ... -
Influence of crude oil on changes of bacterial communities in Arctic sea-ice.
(2005)The danger of a petroleum hydrocarbon spillage in the polar, ice-covered regions is increasing due to oil exploration in Arctic offshore areas and a growing interest in using the Northern Sea Route (NSR) as an alternative ... -
Negotiating Research Relationships with Inuit Communities: a Guide for Researchers.
(Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami and Nunavut Research Institute, Ottawa and Iqualuit, 2007)Northern researchers are ever-aware of the growing expectations on them to ensure that northern communities are involved in, and benefit from, research. But what are researchers really being asked to do? How can community ... -

(Canadian Ice Service, Ottawa, Canada, 2007)A number of northern nations, particularly, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Norway, Russian Federation, the United States, and those bordering on the Baltic Sea, maintain Ice Services (for a complete list of national ice services ... -
Handbook for community-based sea ice monitoring.
(National Snow and Ice Data Center, Boulder, Colorado, 2008)This handbook was originally compiled as a reference for local observers carrying out sea ice measurements as part of a community-based sea ice observation network for the Siku-Inuit-Hila project, an NSF-funded project ... -
Best Practices in Ecosystem-based Oceans Management in the Arctic.
(Norsk Polarinstitutt, Tromso, Norway, 2009)The aggregate effects of multiple uses of the oceans – fishing, transportation, petroleum development, waste disposal, etc. – call for an ecosystem-based approach to oceans management. The need for oceans management ... -

(NORDECO, Copenhagen, Denmark, 2009)Proceedings from Kick Off Workshop for the project "Opening Doors to Native Knowledge" or PISUNA (Piniakkanik Sumiiffinni Nalunaarsuineq). The workshop was held in Ilulissat, 11 Nov 2009 The Greenland Government with ... -
WMO Sea-ice Nomenclature, WMO/OMM/ВМО - No.259 Suppl.No.5. Linguistic equivalents.
(JCOMM Expert Team on Sea Ice, Geneva, Switzerland, 2009)Describes WMO Sea-ice terminology, with linguistic equivalents -
Search for Hydrophilic Marine Fungal Metabolites: a Rational Approach for their Production and Extraction in a Bioactivity Screening Context.
(2011)In the search for bioactive natural products, our lab screens hydrophobic extracts from marine fungal strains. While hydrophilic active substances were recently identified from marine macro-organisms, there was a lack of ... -
Arctic Marine Biodiversity Monitoring Plan (CBMP-MARINE PLAN).
(CAFF International Secretariat, Akureyri, Iceland, 2011)Arctic biodiversity is under growing pressure from both climate change and resource development, requiring both managers and users to have access to more complete information to help them make timely and informed conservation ... -
Requirements for environmental monitoring and investigation of cultural deposits: English version of the Norwegian National Standard.
(Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage [Riksantikvaren], Oslo, Norway, 2012)This standard is based on the Norwegian Directorate for Cultural Heritage’s [Riksantikvaren] strategy for monitoring of subsurface deposits of archaeological or cultural significance (“cultural deposits”) and on the guidance ... -
Inverse modelling of cloud-aerosol interactions - Part 2: Sensitivity tests on liquid phase clouds using a Markov chain Monte Carlo based simulation approach.
(2012)This paper presents a novel approach to investigate cloud-aerosol interactions by coupling a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm to an adiabatic cloud parcel model. Despite the number of numerical cloud-aerosol ... -
Electronic Chart Systems Ice Objects Catalogue, Version 5.1. Draft for Approval. February 2012. [SUPERSEDED by http://hdl.handle.net/11329/403]
(JCOMM Expert Team on Sea Ice (ETSI), Geneva, Switzerland, 2012)Many Arctic and Baltic nations maintain Ice Services and issue ice charts on a regular basis when marine activities are occurring in the vicinity of sea ice and icebergs. These ice charts are used on ships as an aid ... -
Observing System Simulation Experiments; justifying new Arctic observation capabilities.
(NOAA National Centers for Environmental Prediction, 2013)The Arctic is recognized as one of the key areas of the globe, both in terms of its sensitivity to climate change, and by the increasing economic activity that is expected with the opening up of Arctic areas in a warming ... -
A comparison between gradient descent and stochastic approaches for parameter optimization of a sea ice model.
(2013)Two types of optimization methods were applied to a parameter optimization problem in a coupled ocean-sea ice model of the Arctic, and applicability and efficiency of the respective methods were examined. One optimization ... -
Error Analysis Procedures Used by the National Ocean Service to Compute Estimated Error Bounds for Tidal Datums in the Arctic Ocean.
(NOAA, NOS Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services, Silver Spring, MD, 2014)NOAA has an established National Water Level Observation Network (NWLON) along all U.S. coastlines. One purpose of the NWLON is to provide control for tidal datum determination at short-term water level stations ... -
