The role of local-ice meltwater in the triggering of an under-ice phytoplankton bloom in an Arctic fjord

We combined records from moorings, profilers, and CTD transects obtained in an Arctic fjord (Young Sound, Greenland) to assess the effects of local meltwater input at the beginning of ice melt while the fjord was still covered by ice. Results indicate that light penetrated below the ice and was avai...
