Under-ice phytoplankton blooms: Shedding light on the “invisible” part of Arctic primary production
The growth of phytoplankton at high latitudes was generally thought to begin in open waters

Increases in Arctic sea ice algal habitat, 1985–2018
In the Arctic Ocean, sea ice algae are responsible for a small but seasonally important pulse
of primary production. Their persistence is threatened by the rapid loss of sea ice from the …

Under‐ice phytoplankton blooms inhibited by spring convective mixing in refreezing leads
Spring phytoplankton growth in polar marine ecosystems is limited by light availability
beneath ice‐covered waters, particularly early in the season prior to snowmelt and melt …

Late spring nitrate distributions beneath the ice‐covered northeastern Chukchi Shelf
KR Arrigo, MM Mills, GL van Dijken… - Journal of …, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Measurements of late springtime nutrient concentrations in Arctic waters are relatively rare
due to the extensive sea ice cover that makes sampling difficult. During the SUBICE (Study …
