• From winter to late summer in the northwestern Barents Sea shelf: Impacts of seasonal progression of sea ice and upper ocean on nutrient and phytoplankton dynamics 

      Koenig, Zoe Charlotte; Muilwijk, Morven; Sandven, Håkon Johan; Lundesgaard, Øyvind; Assmy, Philipp Kurt Wolf; Lind, Sigrid Gjessing; Assmann, Karen; Chierici, Melissa; Fransson, Agneta; Gerland, Sebastian; Jones, Elizabeth Marie; Renner, Angelika; Granskog, Mats (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2024)
      Strong seasonality is a key feature of high-latitude systems like the Barents Sea. While the interannual variability and long-term changes of the Barents Sea are well-documented, the seasonal progression of the physical ...
    • Overview of the MOSAiC expedition: Physical oceanography 

      Rabe, Benjamin; Baumann, Till Martin; Divine, Dmitry; Fer, Ilker; Gradinger, Rolf Rudolf; Granskog, Mats; Koenig, Zoe Charlotte; Muilwijk, Morven; Sundfjord, Arild (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Arctic Ocean properties and processes are highly relevant to the regional and global coupled climate system, yet still scarcely observed, especially in winter. Team OCEAN conducted a full year of physical oceanography ...
    • Seasonality and drivers of water column optical properties on the northwestern Barents Sea shelf 

      Sandven, Håkon; Hamre, Børge; Petit, Tristan; Röttgers, Rudiger; Liu, Hongbo; Granskog, Mats (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Hydrographic and bio-optical measurements were conducted along a south–north transect on the northwestern Barents Sea shelf from early spring to late summer in 2021. Strong climate change manifestations observed in this ...
    • Snowmelt contribution to Arctic first-year ice ridge mass balance and rapid consolidation during summer melt 

      Lange, Benjamin A.; Salganik, Evgenii; Macfarlane, Amy; Schneebeli, Martin; Høyland, Knut Vilhelm; Gardner, Jessie; Müller, Oliver; Divine, Dmitry; Kohlbach, Doreen; Katlein, Christian; Granskog, Mats (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Sea ice ridges are one of the most under-sampled and poorly understood components of the Arctic sea ice system. Yet, ridges play a crucial role in the sea ice mass balance and have been identified as ecological hotspots ...
    • Temporal evolution of under-ice meltwater layers and false bottoms and their impact on summer Arctic sea ice mass balance 

      Salganik, Evgenii; Katlein, Christian; Lange, Benjamin; Matero, Ilkka; Lei, Ruibo; Fong, Allison A.; Fons, Steven; Divine, Dmitry; Oggier, Marc; Castellani, Giulia; Bozzato, Deborah; Chamberlain, Emelia; Hoppe, Clara J. M.; Müller, Oliver; Gardner, Jessie; Rinke, Annette; Simoes Pereira, Patric; Ulfsbo, Adam; Marsay, Christopher; Webster, Melinda; Maus, Sønke; Høyland, Knut Vilhelm; Granskog, Mats (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Low-salinity meltwater from Arctic sea ice and its snow cover accumulates and creates under-ice meltwater layers below sea ice. These meltwater layers can result in the formation of new ice layers, or false bottoms, at the ...
    • Thin and transient meltwater layers and false bottoms in the Arctic sea ice pack-Recent insights on these historically overlooked features 

      Smith, Madison M.; Muilwijk, Morven; Chierici, Melissa; Fer, Ilker; Fransson, Agneta; Gardner, Jessie; Granskog, Mats; Müller, Oliver; Salganik, Evgenii (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      The rapid melt of snow and sea ice during the Arctic summer provides a significant source of low-salinity meltwater to the surface ocean on the local scale. The accumulation of this meltwater on, under, and around sea ice ...
