Continental slopes–steep regions between the shelf break and abyssal ocean–play key
roles in the climatology and ecology of the Arctic Ocean. Here, through review and …

The Arctic climate system is rapidly transitioning into a new regime with a reduction in the
extent of sea ice, enhanced mixing in the ocean and atmosphere, and thus enhanced …

As a cooling machine of the Arctic Ocean, the Barents Sea releases most of the incoming
ocean heat originating from the North Atlantic. The related air-sea heat exchange plays a …

Abstract The northern Barents Sea is a cold, seasonally ice-covered Arctic shelf sea region
that has experienced major warming and sea ice loss in recent decades. Here, a 2-year …

Water mass transformation in the Nordic and Barents Seas, triggered by air-sea heat fluxes,
is an integral component of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). These …

The Arctic amplification of global warming is causing the Arctic-Atlantic ice edge to retreat at
unprecedented rates. Here we show how variability and change in sea ice cover in the …

Eddy driven recirculation of Atlantic Water (AW) in the Fram Strait modifies the amount of
heat that reaches the Arctic Ocean, but is difficult to constrain in ocean models due to very …

Mesoscale eddies are important to many aspects of the dynamics of the Arctic Ocean.
Among others, they maintain the halocline and interact with the Atlantic Water circumpolar …

The rapid ongoing changes in the Central Arctic Ocean call for baseline information on the
pelagic fauna. However, sampling for motile organisms which easily escape vertically towed …

Abstract We quantify Atlantic Water heat loss north of Svalbard using year‐long
hydrographic and current records from three moorings deployed across the Svalbard Branch …
