Mercury transport and transformation across the sea ice environment

6 Apr
12 days, Saturday 6 April 2013, at 00:00 - 17 April Kobbefjord, Nuuk, Greenland

We will study the distribution of total and methylated mercury in snow, sea ice (including brine) and underlying water column, with a specific…

Evolution and distribution of pH in natural first-year sea ice

27 Mar
22 days, Wednesday 27 March 2013, at 00:00 - 17 April Kobbefjord, Nuuk, Greenland

We will study the evolution and distribution of pH in first-year sea ice by directly measuring pH profiles in both brine and bulk ice, as well as…

Seasonal Synergy between Bacterial Osmoprotection and Algal Production in Sea ice

27 Mar
18 days, Wednesday 27 March 2013, at 00:00 - 13 April Kobbefjord, Nuuk, Greenland

Light and nutrients are considered classical determinants of algal production in sea ice, yet complex synergies between algae and other microbes in…

Snow cover in the Godthåbsfjord area 2013-2014

14 Mar
21 days, Thursday 14 March 2013, at 00:00 - 3 April Nordlandet, Godthåbsfjorden, Greenland

Snow cover plays a key role in the arctic ecosystems. Its presence, absence and many characteristics e.g.
reflecting and insolating effect and water…

Green house gases (CO2 – CH4 – N2O) dynamics within fjord sea ice.

4 Mar
45 days, Monday 4 March 2013, at 00:00 - 17 April Kobbefjord, Nuuk, Greenland

We proposed to follow the dynamics of the three main (CO2 – CH4 and N2O) green houses gases within sea ice and the interactions sea ice – seawater and…

Underwater Eddy Correlation Measurements of Ice-Ocean Heat and Mass Exchange

4 Mar
45 days, Monday 4 March 2013, at 00:00 - 17 April Kobbefjord, Nuuk, Greenland

We will study the exchange of salt, heat, and oxygen between sea ice and the underlying seawater using eddy correlation.  Measurement of ice-ocean…

Assessment of sea ice algae production in Kobbefjord

4 Mar
45 days, Monday 4 March 2013, at 00:00 - 17 April Kobbefjord, Nuuk, Greenland

There are two objectives of this field project. The first is to evaluate and compare techniques used in monitoring sea ice algae primary production.…
