The “biological pump” is the process by which photosynthetically-produced organic matter in
the ocean descends from the surface layer to depth by a combination of sinking particles …

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous pollutants in the ocean, and there is a general concern
about their persistence and potential effects on marine ecosystems. We still know little about …

In a warmer Arctic with less sea ice and stronger stratification, the environmental changes
are expected to impact the pelagic food web, but few biological studies supporting this exist …

Microplastics (MPs) are polluting the Arctic, but our understanding of their abundance,
distribution, and sources is limited. This study quantified MPs down to 10 μm in marine …

The timing of reproductive events of Calanus glacialis is closely coupled to the two major
marine primary production events in the Arctic: the ice algal and phytoplankton blooms …

Freshwater runoff from the Greenland Ice Sheet (GIS) can be an important driver influencing
plankton community structure in Greenland fjords. In the present study, we describe …

We examined the spatial and temporal linkage between primary production, zooplankton
distribution and density, and bowhead whale Balaena mysticetus foraging behavior in Disko …

We deployed autonomous particle-sensing SOLOPC floats more than eight times during five
cruises, amassing almost 400 profiles of particle size (d> 90μm) and abundance between …

The fate of primary production (PP) is closely linked to the ecosystem structure in aquatic
environments. High pelagic consumption and recycling reduce quantity and quality of …

This study describes differences in plankton community structure and in chemical and
physical gradients between the offshore West Greenland Current system and inland regions …
