Meta-analysis of stage-specific <i>Calanus finmarchicus</i> vertical distribution in relation to hydrography and chlorophyll in the North Atlantic Open
Calanus finmarchicus is an important, extensively studied zooplankton species in the North Atlantic. Many studies have explored its abundance and life cycle, but basin-wide relationships between its vertical distribution and environment du…

Long-term monitoring of Arctic birds at the East Bay Island Field Station, within the Qaqsauqtuuq Migratory Bird Sanctuary, 1996–2023 Open
Northern common eider ducks ( Somateria mollissima borealis, Linnaeus, 1758) are harvested throughout their range and represent an important resource of eggs, meat, and feather down. In the 1990s, there was growing Indigenous and internati…

The thick-billed murre (<i>Uria lomvia</i>) in Northwest Greenland (Avanersuaq) relies on Arctic cod (<i>Boreogadus saida</i>) in a changing climate Open
Considering seabirds as indicators of environmental change, we compared thick-billed murre ( Uria lomvia (Linnaeus, 1758)) adult and chick diet in the North Water polynya region, NW Greenland, during 1997 and 2023. In the adult murre diet,…

Drivers of Interspecific Spatial Segregation in Two Closely‐Related Seabird Species at a Pan‐Atlantic Scale Open
Aim Ecologically similar species living in sympatry are expected to segregate to reduce the effects of competition where resources are limiting. Segregation from heterospecifics commonly occurs in space, but it is often unknown whether suc…

A review of climate change impacts on migration patterns of marine vertebrates in Arctic and Subarctic ecosystems Open
Climate change is impacting marine ecosystems throughout the circumpolar Arctic, altering seasonal habitats and the food bases for fishes, seabirds, and marine mammals. Arctic and Subarctic regions provide resources for resident species an…

Thick-billed Murres in breeding pairs migrate and overwinter far apart but in similar photic environments Open
Scheduling between mates in species with long-term pair bonds can be essential for positive fitness. The annual cycle in photoperiod is the primary environmental cue used by many animals to synchronize behavior and physiology among members…

Environmental monitoring of pollution at legacy mines in Greenland using portable X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (pXRF) Open
As the world’s need for raw materials increases, more mines are planned to be established in the Arctic. The Arctic provides a unique and challenging environment for mining operations and introduces concerns for the potential spread …

UUMMANNAP KANGERLUA AND SIGGUUP NUNAA (SVARTENHUK) – REGIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL BASELINE ASSESSMENT FOR MINING ACTIVITIES Open
This regional environmental baseline assessment of mining activities in Uummannap Kangerlua and Sigguup Nunaa (Svartenhuk) is based on a project idea developed between Environmental Agency for Mineral Resource Activities (EAMRA), Greenland…

Geochemical fingerprinting of high latitude dust – potential environmental impacts of natural and mining related dust in Greenland in a changing climate. Open
Dispersion and deposition of mineral dust from natural or anthropogenic sources can have both positive and negative effects on the environment depending on the geochemical and mineralogical composition of the dust. In Greenland, proglacial…
View article: Effects of chemical dispersants on feathers from Arctic seabirds
Effects of chemical dispersants on feathers from Arctic seabirds Open
Chemical dispersion is an oil spill response strategy where dispersants are sprayed onto the oil slick to enhance oil dispersion into the water. However, accidental application could expose seabirds to dispersants, thereby negatively affec…

The circumpolar impacts of climate change and anthropogenic stressors on Arctic cod (<i>Boreogadus saida</i>) and its ecosystem Open
Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) is the most abundant forage fish in the Arctic Ocean. Here we review Arctic cod habitats, distribution, ecology, and physiology to assess how climate change and other anthropogenic stressors are affecting this…

Indoor radon survey in Greenland and dose assessment Open
Indoor radon and its decay products are the primary sources of the population's exposure to background ionizing radiation. Radon decay products are one of the leading causes of lung cancer, with a higher lung cancer risk for smokers due to…

The Green Edge cruise: investigating the marginal ice zone processes during late spring and early summer to understand the fate of the Arctic phytoplankton bloom Open
The Green Edge project was designed to investigate the onset, life, and fate of a phytoplankton spring bloom (PSB) in the Arctic Ocean. The lengthening of the ice-free period and the warming of seawater, amongst other factors, have induced…
