• A model study of the seasonal and long-term North Atlantic surface pCO(2) variability 

      Tjiputra, Jerry; Olsen, Are; Assmann, Karen Margarete; Pfeil, Benjamin; Heinze, Christoph (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      A coupled biogeochemical-physical ocean model is used to study the seasonal and long–term variations of surface pCO2 in the North Atlantic Ocean. The model agrees well with recent underway pCO2 observations from the Surface ...
    • Absence of photophysiological response to iron addition in autumn phytoplankton in the Antarctic sea-ice zone 

      Singh, Asmita; Fietz, Susanne; Thomalla, Sandy J.; Sanchez, Nicolas; Ardelan, Murat V.; Moreau, Sebastian; Kauko, Hanna Maria; Fransson, Agneta; Chierici, Melissa; Samanta, Saumik; Mtshali, Thato N.; Roychoudhury, Alakendra N.; Ryan-Keogh, Thomas J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      he high nutrient–low chlorophyll condition of the Southern Ocean is generally thought to be caused by the low bioavailability of micronutrients, particularly iron, which plays an integral role in phytoplankton photosynthesis. ...
    • Acidification of the Nordic Seas 

      Fransner, Sara Filippa Krusmynta; Fröb, Friederike; Tjiputra, Jerry; Goris, Nadine; Lauvset, Siv Kari; Skjelvan, Ingunn; Jeansson, Emil; Omar, Abdirahman; Chierici, Melissa; Jones, Elizabeth Marie; Fransson, Agneta; Olafsdóttir, Solveig R.; Johannessen, Truls; Olsen, Are (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Due to low calcium carbonate saturation states, and winter mixing that brings anthropogenic carbon to the deep ocean, the Nordic Seas and their cold-water corals are vulnerable to ocean acidification. Here, we present a ...
    • Acidification of the Nordic Seas 

      Fransner, Sara Filippa Krusmynta; Fröb, Friederike; Tjiputra, Jerry; Goris, Nadine; Lauvset, Siv Kari; Skjelvan, Ingunn; Jeansson, Emil; Omar, Abdirahman; Chierici, Melissa; Jones, Elizabeth Marie; Fransson, Agneta; Ólafsdóttir, Sólveig R.; Johannessen, Truls; Olsen, Are (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Due to low calcium carbonate saturation states, and winter mixing that brings anthropogenic carbon to the deep ocean, the Nordic Seas and their cold-water corals are vulnerable to ocean acidification. Here, we present a ...
    • Arctic Ocean CO2 uptake: An improved multiyear estimate of the air-sea CO2 flux incorporating chlorophyll a concentrations 

      Yasunaka, Sayaka; Siswanto, Eko; Olsen, Are; Hoppema, Mario; Watanabe, Eiji; Fransson, Agneta Ingrid; Chierici, Melissa; Murata, Akihiko; Lauvset, Siv Kari; Wanninkhof, Rik; Takahashi, Taro; Kosugi, Naohiro; Omar, Abdirahman; van Heuven, Steven; Mathis, Jeremy T. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      We estimated monthly air–sea CO2 fluxes in the Arctic Ocean and its adjacent seas north of 60° N from 1997 to 2014. This was done by mapping partial pressure of CO2 in the surface water (pCO2w) using a self-organizing map ...
    • CO2 flux over young and snow-covered Arctic pack ice in winter and spring 

      Nomura, Daiki; Granskog, Mats A.; Fransson, Agneta; Chierici, Melissa; Silyakova, Anna; Ohshima, Kay; Cohen, Lana; Delille, Bruno; Hudson, Stephen R.; Dieckmann, Gerhard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Rare CO2 flux measurements from Arctic pack ice show that two types of ice contribute to the release of CO2 from the ice to the atmosphere during winter and spring: young, thin ice with a thin layer of snow and older ...
    • Remineralization rate of terrestrial DOC as inferred from CO2 supersaturated coastal waters 

      Fransner, Filippa; Fransson, Agneta Ingrid; Humborg, Christoph; Gustafsson, Erik; Tedesco, Letizia; Hordoir, Robinson; Nycander, Jonas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Coastal seas receive large amounts of terrestrially derived organic carbon (OC). The fate of this carbon, and its impact on the marine environment, is however poorly understood. Here we combine underway CO2 partial pressure ...
    • Riverine impact on future projections of marine primary production and carbon uptake 

      Gao, Shuang; Schwinger, Jörg; Tjiputra, Jerry; Bethke, Ingo; Hartmann, Jens; Mayorga, Emilio; Heinze, Christoph (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Riverine transport of nutrients and carbon from inland waters to the coastal and finally the open ocean alters marine primary production (PP) and carbon (C) uptake regionally and globally. So far, this process has not been ...
    • Seasonal variation in marine C:N:P stoichiometry: can the composition of seston explain stable Redfield ratios? 

      Frigstad, Helene; Andersen, Tom; Hessen, Dag Olav; Naustvoll, L..J.; Johnsen, Torbjørn Martin; Bellerby, Richard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)
      Seston is suspended particulate organic matter, comprising a mixture of autotrophic, heterotrophic and detrital material. Despite variable proportions of these components, marine seston often exhibits relatively small ...
    • Sensitivity towards elevated pCO2 in great scallop (Pecten maximus Lamarck) embryos and fed larvae 

      Andersen, Sissel; Grefsrud, Ellen Sofie; Harboe, Torstein (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
    • Spring bloom onset in the Nordic Seas 

      Mignot, Alexandre; Ferrari, Raffaele; Mork, Kjell Arne (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-06-15)
      The North Atlantic spring bloom is a massive annual growth event of marine phytoplankton, tiny free-floating algae that form the base of the ocean's food web and generates a large fraction of the global primary production ...
