Carbon dioxide sink in the Arctic Ocean from cross-shelf transport of dense Barents Sea water

Andreas Rogge et al.

Summary: The study reveals the phenomenon of widespread deep lateral carbon injection from the Barents Sea shelf to the Nansen Basin, which increases the carbon sequestration of the Barents Sea region by one-third and provides nutrients to the deep-sea community. This finding, along with other studies on carbon-rich polar water outflow regions, highlights the importance of lateral injection as a global carbon sink.

Diversity and seasonal development of large zooplankton along physical gradients in the Arctic Barents Sea

Tom Van Engeland et al.

Summary: The study investigates the community composition and seasonal development of large zooplankton in the northern Barents Sea. It reveals that temperature and bottom-depth are key factors shaping the zooplankton community, with distinct Atlantic and Arctic domains. The continental shelf exhibits an Arctic signature, characterized by a dominance of cold-water species, while the continental slope is dominated by the copepod Calanus hyperboreus. The study also highlights the seasonal shift in zooplankton feeding guilds and discusses the importance of food preferences in bridging periods of low primary production.

Biogeochemical consequences of a changing Arctic shelf seafloor ecosystem

Christian Marz et al.

Summary: The Arctic is undergoing unprecedented and dramatic transformations in response to climate change, with a disproportionate focus on visible aspects like sea ice melt and the fate of megafauna. However, the importance of the shelf seafloor in regulating nutrients and sequestering carbon is often overlooked. Climate change and regional adjustments to human activities may alter the biogeochemical and ecological dynamics of the Arctic shelf seafloor, impacting ecosystem function, carbon burial, and nutrient recycling. Mitigating climatic and anthropogenic change requires recognizing the vital role of the Arctic benthic system.

Can a key boreal Calanus copepod species now complete its life-cycle in the Arctic? Evidence and implications for Arctic food-webs

Geraint A. Tarling et al.

Summary: The changing Arctic environment is influencing key zooplankton species such as Calanus finmarchicus, with areas near the ice-edge in the Fram Strait becoming more favorable for their habitat. This increase in suitable habitat is likely due to the long-term retreat of the ice-edge, allowing for earlier and longer phytoplankton blooms and higher temperatures that enhance copepod developmental rates. These changes can have significant implications for community structure and regional food-webs.

Understanding Differences in North Atlantic Poleward Ocean Heat Transport and Its Variability in Global Climate Models

Erica Madonna et al.

Summary: The ocean heat transport from the North Atlantic to the Barents Sea has an impact on the sea ice extent and energy budget in the Arctic. However, there are significant differences in ocean heat transport between the fifth and sixth phases of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project. While both model generations show variations in mean volume transports, the CMIP6 models have more realistic temperatures and heat transports. The variability of heat and volume transports is influenced by wind forcing, but with different magnitudes in different models.

Spatial Patterns, Mechanisms, and Predictability of Barents Sea Ice Change

Elina Efstathiou et al.

Summary: The study explores the spatial structure of Barents Sea ice change over the past 40 years, finding that the dominant mode of winter sea ice concentration variability is related to areal change. This mode is influenced by the temperate Atlantic inflow and sea ice import, and is also affected by anomalous wind and sea ice area import. Basic predictability is mainly associated with the areal-change mode, influenced by the temperature of the Atlantic inflow and sea ice import from the Arctic.

Summary: Climate change has a significant impact on the Arctic Ocean, affecting its thermo-haline structure. Analysis of a 3D ocean model simulation from 1970 to 2019 shows a decrease in stratification, decrease in fresh water inputs, and increase in momentum inputs. The winter mixed layer becomes deeper while the summer mixed layer shows a less evident deepening pattern. Regional exceptions include areas where the mixed layer becomes shallower. The results highlight the non-linear dynamics of the Arctic Ocean.

The Influence of Sea Ice Cover and Atlantic Water Advection on Annual Particle Export North of Svalbard

C. Dybwad et al.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of ongoing changes in the Arctic Ocean on annual particle export. It found that advection of Atlantic water and grazing by large copepods were the main factors driving higher total particulate matter and particulate organic carbon fluxes at the ice-free NSv site. In contrast, higher diatom fluxes were observed during spring in the presence of sea ice at the ESv site. Sea ice cover, regional differences in Atlantic water advection, and the seasonal presence of grazers played important roles in the biological carbon pump off the continental shelf of Svalbard.

Summary: The northern Barents Sea is a cold Arctic shelf sea that has undergone significant warming and sea ice loss. Observational records show that warmer and saltier waters from the Atlantic play a major role in driving the ocean variability in the region. Seasonal cycles of ocean temperature are driven by southward inflow through cross-shelf troughs. Atmospheric pressure gradient influences subtidal current variability. Sea ice imports have a lasting impact on the upper ocean, affecting salinity and stratification.

Summary: A self-contained turbulence instrument from Rockland Scientific was installed on an AUV from OceanScan Marine Systems and Technology Lda for a deployment in the Barents Sea. The data quality and limitations of dissipation estimated from two shear probes were discussed. Despite the contamination of shear probe records by AUV vibrations, the noise was mitigated using accelerometer signals. Dissipation rate estimates from the AUV showed good agreement with nearby vertical microstructure profiles obtained from the ship, indicating the reliability of turbulence measurements from the AUV in relatively turbulent environments. However, the lowest reliable dissipation rates were limited, making this setup unfit for use in quiescent environments.

Summary: Viruses have a significant impact on biogeochemical functions of pelagic microbial food webs by shifting material away from predatory pathways. Inclusion of viruses as a single plankton functional type in dynamic food web models can be challenging due to competition with predators for limited resources. Adaptation in the defensive and competitive traits of the host community can address this issue, leading to a quantitative theory for regulating viral dynamics and emphasizing the role of predator top-down control in pelagic microbial food webs.

Summary: The study investigated the diets of 24 Barents Sea zooplankton taxa during late summer and the importance of sea ice algae-produced carbon in the pelagic food web. The results showed that copepods primarily relied on diatom-derived carbon, while other species had a higher contribution of dinoflagellate-produced carbon. Overall, the contribution of sea ice to pelagic consumption was found to be low to moderate, but the presence of ice-derived material in some filter feeders suggests its importance in the water column.

Summary: The impact of the rapidly changing Arctic on zooplankton community structure and seasonal behavior is not yet understood. Zooplankton in the Arctic region is more dependent on surrounding water mass characteristics, such as salinity and depth, rather than geographical location. Seasonal changes in the community are closely linked to algal food availability and seasonal changes from winter to spring.

Overexploitation, Recovery, and Warming of the Barents Sea Ecosystem During 1950-2013

Torstein Pedersen et al.

Summary: The study found that during the period of 1970-1990, the Barents Sea ecosystem was in a phase of overexploitation, but the basic structure was preserved. After 1990, with reduced harvesting pressure, most exploited boreal groups experienced increased biomass, likely driven by increased primary production due to warming and reduced ice coverage.

Meroplankton Diversity, Seasonality and Life-History Traits Across the Barents Sea Polar Front Revealed by High-Throughput DNA Barcoding

Raphaelle Descoteaux et al.

Summary: This study investigated the taxonomic composition and seasonal distribution of meroplankton in the Barents Sea, finding a high diversity of species yearround with abundance peaking in August and November. Different species dominated larval abundance and taxon diversity across the Polar Front, with higher total abundance in the south and greater taxon richness in the north. New knowledge on seasonal patterns of meroplanktonic species has implications for understanding environment-biotic interactions in the changing Arctic.

Physical manifestations and ecological implications of Arctic Atlantification

Randi B. Ingvaldsen et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the physical and ecological manifestations, drivers, and implications of Atlantification in a hotspot region of climate change spanning the southern Barents Sea to the Eurasian Basin. Atlantification is driven by anomalous Atlantic Water inflows and is modulated by local processes, leading to ecosystem responses such as increased production and northward expansion of boreal species. Dedicated, multidisciplinary observations and advanced modeling experiments are urgently needed to better understand the large-scale changes in the system and specific mechanisms responsible for local and remote changes.

Sea-ice associated carbon flux in Arctic spring

J. Ehrlich et al.

Summary: Drastic environmental changes in the Svalbard region, primarily driven by climate warming, have led to shifts in sea-ice-associated community structure, impacting carbon cycling. Sympagic biota play a crucial role as a source, sink, and transmitter of carbon in this changing ecosystem, with under-ice fauna proving to be vital for carbon flux in the context of climate change.

Evgeniy Yakushev et al.

Summary: Plastic pollution is recognized as a global threat to marine ecosystems, habitats, and wildlife, with remote locations such as the Arctic Ocean being impacted. This study analyzes microplastic distribution in the Eurasian Arctic through water samples, identifying two major sources of pollution: Atlantic surface water and discharge plumes of the Great Siberian Rivers.

The northern European shelf as an increasing net sink for CO2

Meike Becker et al.

Summary: A simple method was developed to refine existing open-ocean maps, extending them towards different coastal seas using multi-linear regression. Monthly maps of surface ocean fCO(2) from 1998 to 2016 in northern European coastal seas were produced, showing smaller fCO(2) trends compared to atmospheric trends in most regions, with exceptions in the western North Sea. Surface oceans in most areas were found to be net sinks for CO2, except for the southern North Sea and the Baltic Sea.

Nitrate assimilation and regeneration in the Barents Sea: insights from nitrate isotopes

Robyn E. Tuerena et al.

Summary: The Barents Sea is experiencing significant warming and sea ice retreat due to increased ocean heat transport from the Atlantic, leading to a transformation in its climate regime. Nutrient cycling in the Barents Sea is efficient, with benthic denitrification having no significant impact on nitrate isotopic composition. Changes in Barents Sea productivity are unlikely to alter nitrogen availability or transport to the central Arctic Basin.
