      Wiedmann, Ingrid; Ceballos-Romero, E.; Villa-Alfageme, M.; Renner, Angelika; Dybwad, Christine; van der Jagt, Helga; Svensen, Camilla; Assmy, Philipp; Wiktor, Josef; Tatarek, Agnieszka; Różańska‐Pluta, M.; Iversen, Morten H. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The attenuation coefficient b is one of the most common ways to describe how strong the carbon flux is attenuated throughout the water column. Therefore, b is an essential input variable in many carbon flux and climate ...
    • Carbon export in the seasonal sea ice zone north of Svalbard from winter to late summer 

      Dybwad, Christine; Assmy, Philipp; Olsen, Lasse Mork; Peeken, Ilka; Nikolopoulos, Anna; Krumpen, Thomas; Randelhoff, Achim; Tatarek, Agnieszka; Wiktor, Józef M.; Reigstad, Marit (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Phytoplankton blooms in the Arctic Ocean's seasonal sea ice zone are expected to start earlier and occur further north with retreating and thinning sea ice cover. The current study is the first compilation of phytoplankton ...
    • Earlier sea-ice melt extends the oligotrophic summer period in the Barents Sea with low algal biomass and associated low vertical flux

      The decrease in Arctic sea-ice extent and thickness as a result of global warming will impact the timing, duration, magnitude and composition of phytoplankton production with cascading effects on Arctic marine food-webs ...

    • Pelagic ecosystem characteristics across the atlantic water boundary current from Rijpfjorden, Svalbard, to the Arctic ocean during summer (2010-2014) 

      Hop, Haakon; Assmy, Philipp; Wold, Anette; Sundfjord, Arild; Daase, Malin; Duarte, Pedro; Kwasniewski, Slawomir; Gluchowska, Marta; Wiktor, Józef Maria; Tatarek, Agnieszka; Wiktor, Józef Maria Jr.; Kristiansen, Svein; Fransson, Agneta Ingrid; Chierici, Melissa; Vihtakari, Mikko (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      The northern coast of Svalbard contains high-arctic fjords, such as Rijpfjorden (80°N 22°30′E). This area has experienced higher sea and air temperatures and less sea ice in recent years, and models predict increasing ...
    • Seasonal plankton dynamics in Kongsfjorden during two years of contrasting environmental conditions 

      Assmy, Philipp; Kvernvik, Ane Cecilie; Hop, Haakon; Hoppe, Clara J.M.; Chierici, Melissa; David T., Divya; Duarte, Pedro; Fransson, Agneta; García, Laura M.; Patuła, Weronika; Kwaśniewski, Sławomir; Maturilli, Marion; Pavlova, Olga; Tatarek, Agnieszka; Wiktor, Jozef M; Wold, Anette; Wolf, Klara K.E.; Bailey, Allison Michelle (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Seasonal plankton time-series data are presented from Kongsfjorden from two years with contrasting environmental conditions. Kongsfjorden (west coast of Spitsbergen – 79°N) integrates inputs from Atlantic and Arctic waters, ...
    • Tidewater glaciers and bedrock characteristics control the phytoplankton growth environment in a fjord in the arctic
