• Changes in Sea-Ice Protist Diversity With Declining Sea Ice in the Arctic Ocean From the 1980s to 2010s 

      Hop, Haakon; Vihtakari, Mikko; Bluhm, Bodil; Assmy, Philipp; Poulin, Michel; Gradinger, Rolf; Peeken, Ilka; von Quillfeldt, Cecilie; Olsen, Lasse Mork; Zhitina, Ludmila; Melnikov, Igor A. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      The large declines in Arctic sea-ice age and extent over the last decades could have altered the diversity of sea-ice associated unicellular eukaryotes (referred to as sea-ice protists). A time series from the Russian ...
    • Earlier sea-ice melt extends the oligotrophic summer period in the Barents Sea with low algal biomass and associated low vertical flux

      The decrease in Arctic sea-ice extent and thickness as a result of global warming will impact the timing, duration, magnitude and composition of phytoplankton production with cascading effects on Arctic marine food-webs ...
    • First phytoplankton community assessment of the Kong Håkon VII Hav, Southern Ocean, during austral autumn 

      Kauko, Hanna Maria; Assmy, Philipp; Peeken, Ilka; Rózańska-Pluta, Magdalena; Wiktor, Józef M; Bratbak, Gunnar; Singh, Asmita; Ryan-Keogh, Thomas J.; Moreau, Sebastien (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      We studied phytoplankton and protozooplankton community composition based on light microscopy, flow cytometry, and photosynthetic pigment data in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean during March 2019 (early austral ...
    • A winter-to-summer transition of bacterial and archaeal communities in Arctic sea ice 

      Thiele, Stefan; Storesund, Julia Endresen; Férnandez-Méndez, Mar; Assmy, Philipp; Øvreås, Lise (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-08-15)
      The Arctic is warming 2–3 times faster than the global average, leading to a decrease in Arctic sea ice extent, thickness, and associated changes in sea ice structure. These changes impact sea ice habitat properties and ...
