Large, omega-3 rich, pelagic diatoms under Arctic sea ice: sources and implications for food webs.
Pelagic primary production in Arctic seas has traditionally been viewed as biologically insignificant until after the ice breakup. There is growing evidence however, that under-ice blooms of pelagic phytoplankton may be a recurrent occurrence. During the springs of 2011 and 2012, we found substantia...
