Multivariate benthic ecosystem functioning in the Arctic – benthic fluxes explained by environmental parameters in the southeastern Beaufort Sea by H. Link, G. Chaillou, A. Forest, D. Piepenburg, P. Archambault

“…In summer 2009, we measured fluxes of dissolved oxygen, nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, soluble reactive phosphate and silicic acid at the sediment–water interface at eight sites in the southeastern Beaufort Sea at water depths from 45 to 580 m. The spatial pattern of the measured benthic boundary fluxes was heterogeneous. …”

Geochemistry of Coastal Permafrost and Erosion-Driven Organic Matter Fluxes to the Beaufort Sea Near Drew Point, Alaska by Emily M. Bristol, Craig T. Connolly, Thomas D. Lorenson, Bruce M. Richmond, Anastasia G. Ilgen, R. Charles Choens, Diana L. Bull, Mikhail Kanevskiy, Go Iwahana, Benjamin M. Jones, James W. McClelland

“…Accelerating erosion of the Alaska Beaufort Sea coast is increasing inputs of organic matter from land to the Arctic Ocean, and improved estimates of organic matter stocks in eroding coastal permafrost are needed to assess their mobilization rates under contemporary conditions. …”

Effects of sea ice decline and summer land use on polar bear home range size in the Beaufort Sea by Anthony M. Pagano, George M. Durner, Todd C. Atwood, David C. Douglas

“…We evaluated the effects of summer land use and maternal denning on the annual and seasonal utilization distribution size (i.e., home range) of adult female polar bears in the Southern Beaufort Sea subpopulation over 30 yr (1986–2016) during a period of rapid sea ice decline. …”

Retrieving the Motion of Beaufort Sea Ice Using Brightness Temperature Data from FY-3D Microwave Radiometer Imager by Kun Ni, Haihua Chen, Lele Li, Xin Meng

“…We used 36.5 GHz and 89 GHz brightness temperature (T<i>_b</i>) data from the microwave radiometer imager (MWRI) aboard the Fengyun-3D (FY-3D) satellite, for the first time in the literature, to retrieve the sea ice motion in the Beaufort Sea from January to April 2019. The retrieved sea ice motion results were in good agreement with those obtained from the motion of the buoys. …”

First-Year and Multiyear Sea Ice Incidence Angle Normalization of Dual-Polarized Sentinel-1 SAR Images in the Beaufort Sea by Wiebke Aldenhoff, Leif E. B. Eriksson, Yufang Ye, Celine Heuze

“…Here we investigate the incidence angle dependence of smooth and rough/deformed first-year and multiyear ice of different ages for wintertime dual-polarization Sentinel-1 C-band SAR imagery in the Beaufort Sea. Assuming a linear relationship, this dependence is determined using the difference in incidence angle and backscatter intensities from ascending and descending images of the same area. …”
