• Algal colonization of young arctic sea ice in spring 

      Kauko, Hanna Maria; Olsen, Lasse Mork; Duarte, Pedro; Peeken, Ilka; Granskog, Mats A.; Johnsen, Geir; Fernández-Méndez, Mar; Pavlov, Alexey; Mundy, Christopher John; Assmy, Philipp (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The importance of newly formed sea ice in spring is likely to increase with formation of leads in a more dynamic Arctic icescape. We followed the ice algal species succession in young ice (≤ 0.27 m) in spring at high ...
    • Algal hot spots in a changing Arctic Ocean: Sea-ice ridges and the snow-ice interface 

      Fernández-Méndez, Mar; Olsen, Lasse Mork; Kauko, Hanna M.; Meyer, Amelie; Rösel, Anja; Merkouriadi, Ioanna; Mundy, Christopher John; Ehn, Jens K.; Johansson, Malin; Wagner, Penelope Mae; Ervik, Åse; Sorrell, BK; Duarte, Pedro; Wold, Anette; Hop, Haakon; Assmy, Phillipp (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      During the N-ICE2015 drift expedition north-west of Svalbard, we observed the establishment and development of algal communities in first-year ice (FYI) ridges and at the snow-ice interface. Despite some indications of ...
    • High Arctic Sea-Ice Algae - The Use of Rapid Light Curves to Assess Photosynthetic Performance of Different Ice-Algal Communities 

      Sandbu, Marthe (Master thesis, 2017)
      The maximum quantum yield of charge separation in photosystem II (ФPSIImax) was assessed for studying the physiological state of different ice algal communities. By using Rapid Light Curves, relative electron transfer rates ...
    • Leads in Arctic pack ice enable early phytoplankton blooms below snow-covered sea ice 

      Assmy, Philipp; Fernández-Méndez, Mar; Duarte, Pedro; Meyer, Amelie; Randelhoff, Achim; Mundy, Christopher John; Olsen, Lasse; Kauko, Hanna M.; Bailey, Allison; Chierici, Melissa; Cohen, Lana; Doulgeris, Anthony Paul; Ehn, Jens K.; Fransson, Agneta; Gerland, Sebastian; Hop, Haakon; Hudson, Stephen R.; Hughes, Nick; Itkin, Polona; Johnsen, Geir; King, Jennifer A.; Koch, Boris P.; Koenig, Zoe; Kwasniewski, Slawomir; Laney, Samuel R.; Nikolaus, Marcel; Pavlov, Alexey K.; Polashenski, Christopher M.; Provost, Christine; Rösel, Anja; Sandbu, Marthe; Spreen, Gunnar; Smedsrud, Lars H.; Sundfjord, Arild; Taskjelle, Torbjørn; Tatarek, Agnieszka; Wiktor, Josef; Wagner, Penelope Mae; Wold, Anette; Steen, Harald; Granskog, Mats A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      The Arctic icescape is rapidly transforming from a thicker multiyear ice cover to a thinner and largely seasonal first-year ice cover with significant consequences for Arctic primary production. One critical challenge is ...
    • Sea ice thermohaline dynamics and biogeochemistry in the Arctic Ocean: Empirical and model results 

      Duarte, Pedro; Meyer, Amelie; Olsen, Lasse Mork; Kauko, Hanna Maria; Assmy, Philipp; Rösel, Anja; Itkin, Polona; Hudson, Stephen R.; Granskog, Mats A.; Gerland, Sebastian; Sundfjord, Arild; Steen, Harald; Hop, Haakon; Cohen, Lana; Peterson, Algot Kristoffer; Jeffery, Nicole; Elliott, Scott M.; Hunke, Elizabeth Clare; Turner, Adrian K. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Large changes in the sea ice regime of the Arctic Ocean have occurred over the last decades justifying the development of models to forecast sea ice physics and biogeochemistry. The main goal of this study is to evaluate ...
