Abstract Although sea-ice ridges are prominent features of the Arctic Ocean, very little is known about their role as habitats and in biogeochemical cycles. Here, we show that ridges provide complex sea-ice habitats whic...

Abstract The observed decline of sea ice in the Arctic, if it persists into the future, can create more favorable conditions for shipping activity in the region. To estimate possible changes in key sea ice characteristic...

Abstract Emission of anthropogenic greenhouse gases has resulted in greater Arctic warming compared to global warming, known as Arctic amplification (AA). From an energy‐balance perspective, the current Arctic climate ...

Abstract Through data analysis and numerical simulations, this study reveals the winter Arctic Warming Pattern (AWP), characterized by anticyclonic anomalies over the North Pacific and the Urals, which plays a pivotal ro...

Relevance. Fundamentally new infrastructure and production solutions implemented in the Arctic macroregion can subsequently be scaled both in the subarctic regions and in the country as a whole, which determines the impo...

The article presents the results of a comprehensive study of strategic directions for improving the quality of life of the population in the Arctic territories of the Republic of Karelia. The relevance of the research is...

Abstract The Arctic Oscillation (AO) is the most significant mode of sea level pressure (SLP) anomalies in the Northern Hemisphere, exhibiting significant multiple‐timescale variability from synoptic to decadal. Using ...

Three digestibility experiments on Arctic foxes were carried out. Control groups were fed standard diets (C1 and C2) composed of fresh or frozen animal by-products and steamed ground grain. Dry experimental diets (E1 and...

Abstract The Arctic is warming faster than any other region on Earth. This warming affects Arctic clouds, both directly and through changes in aerosol concentrations, triggering feedbacks that may further amplify the war...

Abstract We construct a linear model of microseism power as a function of sea‐ice concentration and ocean‐wave activity with a seismic station located on northern Ellesmere Island. The influence of wind‐ice‐ocean...

Increased focus on secure communications has created a growing interest in national and regional satellite systems. An elliptic medium earth orbit satellite system for Nordic/Arctic areas is proposed and investigated. Th...

We sought to establish a sustainable 200 kV cryo-EM core facility for the Northern Rocky Mountain region with high resolution single particle capabilities. With modest funding, relative to 300 kV instruemnts, from th...

This benchmark case study introduces recently developed state-of-the-art general purpose multi-modal nonstationary reliability assessment method for marine, offshore, and naval structures, suitable for physically measure...

The Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ) is a dynamic region where the atmosphere, ocean, and sea ice actively interact, giving rise to frequent eddy formation. Clarifying the processes governing this zone is crucial for both accurat...

This text aims to trace the thematisation of death and dying in Sociology, which in the 1990’ evolves into constituion of independent sociological sub-discipline: “sociology of dying and death”. The main intention ...

Abstract Permafrost degradation causes irreversible damage to Arctic civil infrastructure and threatens the broader pan-Arctic economy. Currently, the lack of community-scale, geomechanics-based mapping of Arctic infrast...

Reconstructing the faunal palaeoecology of landscapes occupied by Neanderthals and their competitors is essential for better understanding their ecological niche, decisions, and behaviors. Late Pleistocene faunal assembl...

Abstract Wild geese form large flocks, benefiting from shared vigilance against predators which increases feeding time. As spring progresses, males invest more in mate-guarding to protect paternity, so we hypothesised th...

This study aims to systematically analyze the new characteristics, evolution trends, and causes of major extreme weather in China in the context of global climate change, and evaluate the current forecasting, early-warni...

We present the Met Office Hadley Centre's sea ice and sea surface temperature (SST) data set, HadISST1, and the nighttime marine air temperature (NMAT) data set, HadMAT1. HadISST1 replaces the global sea ice and sea surf...

We introduce here a new method for computing differences between microbial communities based on phylogenetic information. This method, UniFrac, measures the phylogenetic distance between sets of taxa in a phylogenetic tr...
