Arctic Ocean sediments as important current and future sinks for marine microplastics missing in the global microplastic budget
To better understand unexpectedly low plastic loads at the ocean's surface compared with
inputs, unidentified sinks must be located. Here, we present the microplastic (MP) budget for …

Coastal ocean and shelf-sea biogeochemical cycling of trace elements and isotopes: lessons learned from GEOTRACES
Continental shelves and shelf seas play a central role in the global carbon cycle. However,
their importance with respect to trace element and isotope (TEI) inputs to ocean basins is …

Importance of seasonal sea ice in the western Arctic ocean to the Arctic and global microplastic budgets
SK Kim, HJ Lee, JS Kim, SH Kang, EJ Yang… - Journal of Hazardous …, 2021 - Elsevier
Arctic sea ice entraps microplastics (MP) from seawater and atmosphere and is recognized
as sink and transport vector of MPs. However, ice-trapped fraction in the global MP budget …

Degradation of terrigenous dissolved organic carbon in the western Arctic Ocean
The largest flux of terrigenous organic carbon into the ocean occurs in dissolved form by
way of rivers. The fate of this material is enigmatic; there are numerous reports of …

Increased fluxes of shelf-derived materials to the central Arctic Ocean
Rising temperatures in the Arctic Ocean region are responsible for changes such as
reduced ice cover, permafrost thawing, and increased river discharge, which, together, alter …

Arctic–Atlantic exchange of the dissolved micronutrients iron, manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper and zinc with a focus on Fram Strait
S Krisch, MJ Hopwood, S Roig… - Global …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract The Arctic Ocean is considered a source of micronutrients to the Nordic Seas and
the North Atlantic Ocean through the gateway of Fram Strait (FS). However, there is a paucity …

Benthic fluxes of trace metals in the Chukchi Sea and their transport into the Arctic Ocean
Abstract The Chukchi Sea is a primary site for shelf-ocean exchange in the Arctic region and
modifies Pacific-sourced water masses as they transit via the Bering Strait into the Arctic …

Organic Fe speciation in the Eurasian Basins of the Arctic Ocean and its relation to terrestrial DOM
HA Slagter, HE Reader, MJA Rijkenberg… - Marine Chemistry, 2017 - Elsevier
The bio-essential trace metal iron (Fe) has poor inorganic solubility in seawater, and
therefore dissolution is dependent on organic complexation. The Arctic Ocean is subject to …

Enriched Regions of 228Ra Along the US GEOTRACES Pacific Meridional Transect (GP15)
WS Moore, MA Charette, PB Henderson… - Journal of …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
The half‐life of 228Ra (5.7 years) aligns well with near‐surface and near‐bottom ocean
mixing timescales. Because 228Ra is sourced from sediments, regions of enhanced activity …
