Earth’s orbit and axial tilt imprint a strong seasonal cycle on climatological data. Climate variability is typically viewed in terms of fluctuations in the seasonal cycle induced by higher frequency […]
Copepods of the genus Calanus are central to the ecological and biogeochemical functioning of polar pelagic ecosystems. They graze on seasonal phytoplankton blooms, collectively releasing large quantities of fast-sinking faecal […]
Snowpacks in mountain regions with Mediterranean climates are exceptionally sensitive to climate warming. However, these marginal snowpacks are sparsely monitored, limiting our understanding of recent snow losses and constraining our […]
Very low frequency (VLF) ground transmitters emit signals for communication purposes via the Earth-ionosphere waveguide. Part of their energy propagates upward into the magnetosphere via whistler-mode waves and interacts with […]
The Land and Land Ice Theme in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 7 (CMIP7) represents the current understanding of physical processes in land surface ecosystems, hydrology, cryosphere, and their […]
Despite its biological, biogeochemical, and economic importance, there is much about Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) that remains poorly understood. This is especially true for its abundance, movement and retention in […]
This paper synthesizes the key contributions and lessons learned from Integrated Marine Biosphere Research (IMBeR), a large-scale global research project aimed at fostering ocean sustainability under global change for the […]
The May 2024 geomagnetic storm was the largest for over 20 years. The storm was categorized as a ‘low-level’ G5, where G5 is the highest on the National Oceanic and […]
The 5-year (2024 – 2028) World Meteorological Organization’s (WMO) World Weather Research Programme (WWRP) Polar Coupled Analysis and Prediction for Services (PCAPS) project aims to accelerate research on environmental forecasting […]
Calcifying bivalves account for > 80% of the total macrozoobenthic biomass in the southern Baltic Sea. Salinity declines from around 30 in the western Kattegat to 7 in the central Baltic […]
1. Lichens are an important component of Arctic ecosystems. Studies have indicated a decline in the abundance of Arctic lichens during recent decades, which is often attributed to competitive pressure […]
The Arctic is warming almost four times faster than the global average. Lakes in the Arctic are a prominent feature of the landscape and are consequently undergoing limnological and ecological […]
