Methods for biogeochemical studies of sea ice: the state of the art, caveats, and recommendations.
(2015)
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 biogeochemistry has accelerated significantly, ...
Melt Procedure Affects the Photosynthetic Response of Sea Ice Algae.
(2019)
The accuracy of sea ice algal production estimates is influenced by the range of melting
procedures used in studies to obtain a liquid sample for incubation, particularly in relation
to the duration of melt and the ...
Community and Environmental Compliance Standard Operating Procedures (CECSOP) for R/V Sikuliaq Research Operations.
(University of Alaska Fairbanks, College of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences, Fairbanks, AK, 2017)
The R/V Sikuliaq is owned by the National Science Foundation and operated through a Cooperative Agreement by the College of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences (CFOS) at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF). The vessel is ...
A Framework for the Development, Design and Implementation of a Sustained Arctic Ocean Observing System.
(2019)
Rapid Arctic warming drives profound change in the marine environment that have
significant socio-economic impacts within the Arctic and beyond, including climate
and weather hazards, food security, transportation, ...
Manual Recovery of a Sea Ice Based Ocean Profiler.
(2019)
Ice-tethered ocean profiling systems are an essential tool for the year-round observation
of physical and biogeochemical properties of the Arctic Ocean. Despite being considered
expendable equipment due to the challenging ...
Satellite Based Intertidal-Zone Mapping from Sentinel-1 & 2. Final report.
(NORCE – Norwegian Research Centre AS, Bergen, Norway, 2020)
The report describes develop methods and results based on radar and optical high resolution (10-20m) satellite imagery from Sentinel-1 C-band synthetic aperture radars (C-SAR) S1A and S1B and Sentinel-2 MultiSpectral ...
Community-Based Monitoring and Indigenous Knowledge in a Changing Arctic: A Review for the Sustaining Arctic Observing Networks. Final report to Sustaining Arctic Observing Networks.
(ON: Inuit Circumpolar Council, Ottawa, Canada, 2016)
This review of community-based monitoring (CBM) in a
changing Arctic is based on a multi-year initiative launched
in 2012 as a task under the “Sustaining Arctic Observing
Networks” (SAON), a network of Arctic observing ...
Modeling the temperature evolution of Svalbard permafrost during the 20th and 21st century.
(2011)
Variations in ground thermal conditions in Svalbard were studied based on measurements and modelling. Ground temperature data from boreholes were used to calibrate a transient heat flow model describing depth and time ...
Towards seasonal Arctic shipping route predictions.
(2017)
The continuing decline in Arctic sea-ice will likely lead to increased human activity and opportunities for shipping in the region, suggesting that seasonal predictions of route openings will become ever more important. ...
A quantitative assessment of Arctic shipping in 2010–2014.
(2016)
Rapid loss of sea ice is opening up the Arctic Ocean to shipping, a practice that is forecasted to increase rapidly by 2050 when many models predict that the Arctic Ocean will largely be free of ice toward the end of summer. ...
