Seasonal variation in benthic community oxygen demand: a response to an ice algal bloom in the Beaufort Sea, Canadian Arctic?
Understanding pathways of carbon cycling on Arctic shelves is critical if we are to evaluate
the potential effects of climate change on these systems. We investigated the relationship
between ice algal standing stock and benthic respiration between January and July 2004 at
a time series station in the southeastern Beaufort Sea. Both ice algal chlorophyll a and
benthic sediment oxygen demand showed> 10-fold increases from between March and
April. While some of the increase in oxygen demand can be attributed to bacteria and meio …
