This study provides one of the first mechanistic explanations for Last Glacial Maximum deep ocean deoxygenation.
Sea Ice
Loss of old Arctic sea ice increases methylmercury concentrations
Researchers from the SCRIPPS, the Stockholm Natural Museum and the Mediterranean Institute of Oceanography show the importance of sea ice composition on methylmercury budgets
Tracking the sea ice exported from the Siberian Shelf to the Arctic Ocean
An original method based on the use of the couple salinity – δ18O allows determining the fractions of water that had been removed as ice across the shelf and the […]
Shallow methylmercury production in the marginal sea ice zone of the central Arctic Ocean
Understanding persistent high levels of mercury in arctic biota has been an elusive goal for nearly two decades. Little is known about where exactly inorganic Hg inputs into the Arctic […]
