Sea ice characteristics at Ice Station Belgica sites Brussels, Patria and Fab...
Ice Station Belgica was commenced in late winter 2007 in the Bellingshausen Sea as part of Sea Ice Mass Balance in Antarctica (SIMBA), an IPY 2007 cruise on the research vessel... -
Stable isotopic ratios, shell lengths and organochlorine compounds in four bi...
Organochlorine compounds (OC) were determined in Arctic bivalves (Mya truncata, Serripes groenlan-dicus, Hiatella arctica and Chlamys islandica) from Svalbard with regard to... -
Tree line shifts and disturbance events for sites studied in the Torneträsk a...
Aim: Models project that climate warming will cause the tree line to move to higher elevations in alpine areas and more northerly latitudes in Arctic environments. We aimed to... -
Establishment, expansion and regeneration of aspen (Populus tremula) in the T...
In subarctic Sweden, recent decadal colonization and expansion of aspen (Populus tremula L.) were recorded. Over the past 100 years, aspen became c. 16 times more abundant,... -
Numer and type of seeds introduced by footwear of travelers to Svalbard and g...
Expanding visitation to Polar regions combined with climate warming increases the potential for alien species introduction and establishment. We quantified vascular plant... -
Geochemical composition and radiocarbon ages of cores from Lago Fugnano, Tier...
Recent advances in the chronology and the palaeoclimatic understanding of Antarctic ice core records point towards a larger heterogeneity of latitudinal climate fluctuations... -
Heavy metal concentrations in soils, vegetation, earthworms and wood mice fro...
Effects of soil properties on the accumulation of metals to wood mice (Apodemus sylvaticus) were evaluated at two sites with different pH and organic matter content of the soil.... -
Radiocarbon dates, accumulation rates, δ¹³C and July temperature of profiles ...
The rapid warming of arctic regions during recent decades has been recorded by instrumental monitoring, but the natural climate variability in the past is still sparsely... -
Average fluorescence and dissolved iron and Fe-binding ligand characteristics...
Organic complexation of dissolved iron (dFe) was investigated in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean in order to understand the distribution of Fe over the whole water... -
Dissolved and dissolvable iron concentrations and ligand characteristics in s...
The speciation of iron was investigated in three shelf seas and three deep basins of the Arctic Ocean in 2007. The dissolved fraction (<0.2 µm) and a fraction < 1000 kDa... -
Density and biomass of two copepod size fractions and various species obtaine...
The relative importance of small forms of copepods has been historically underestimated by the traditional use of 200-300-µm mesh nets. This work quantified the distribution and... -
Comparisons of observed ice properties and Envisat Advanced Synthetic Apertur...
Envisat Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) Wide Swath Mode (WSM) images are used to derive C-band HH-polarization normalized radar cross sections (NRCS). These are... -
Morphological, chemical and physical characteristics of cryosolic soils from ...
Cryosols are permafrost-affected soils whose genesis is dominated by cryogenic processes, resulting in unique macromorphologies, micromorphologies, thermal characteristics, and... -
Growth characteristics and age at first migration of anadromous and resident ...
In the family Salmonidae, lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) are considered the least tolerant of salt water. There are, however, sporadic reports of lake trout in coastal,... -
Concentrations of natural and anthropogenic organohalogens in water and air s...
Shipboard measurements of organohalogen compounds in air and surface seawater were conducted in the Canadian Arctic in 2007-2008. Study areas included the Labrador Sea, Hudson... -
Fish biometry and concentration of volatile siloxanes in liver of Atlantic co...
The purpose of this study was to investigate presence and potential accumulation of cyclic volatile methyl siloxanes (cVMS) in the Arctic environment.... -
Sources and seasonality of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons transported to Al...
A probabilistic function (integrated source contribution function, ISCF) based on backward air mass trajectory calculation was developed to track sources and atmospheric... -
Characteristics of eggs and female adults of Calanus finmarchicus, C. glacial...
This is the first high temporal-resolution study in Disko Bay covering population dynamics, grazing, reproduction, and biochemical composition of 3 dominating copepod species... -
Site characteristics, diversity indices and species abundance of peracarid cr...
Abstract The species composition of peracarids (Crustacea: Malacostraca) of the Greenland shelf between 60°N and 65°N was investigated by means of 10 qualitative epibenthic... -
Plant species, biomass and environmental characteristics of relevés along the...
Question: How do interactions between the physical environment and biotic properties of vegetation influence the formation of small patterned-ground features along the Arctic...
