Freshwater in the Arctic Ocean plays an important role in the regional ocean circulation, sea ice, and global climate. From salinity observed by a variety of platforms, we are able, for the first time, to estimate a statistically reliable liquid freshwater trend from monthly gridded fields over all upper Arctic Ocean basins. From 1992 to 2012 this trend was 600300 km(3) yr(-1). A numerical model agrees very well with the observed freshwater changes. A decrease in salinity made up about two thirds of the freshwater trend and a thickening of the upper layer up to one third. The Arctic Ocean Oscillation index, a measure for the regional wind stress curl, correlated well with our freshwater time series. No clear relation to Arctic Oscillation or Arctic Dipole indices could be found. Following other observational studies, an increased Bering Strait freshwater import to the Arctic Ocean, a decreased Davis Strait export, and enhanced net sea ice melt could have played an important role in the freshwater trend we observed.

On the Along-Slope Heat Loss of the Boundary Current in the Eastern Arctic Ocean

Kirstin Schulz, Markus Janout, Yueng-Djern Lenn, Eugenio Ruiz-Castillo, Igor Polyakov, Volker Mohrholz, Sandra Tippenhauer, Krissy Anne Reeve, Jens Hoelemann, Benjamin Rabe, Myriel Vredenborg

Summary: This study quantifies oceanic heat fluxes along the continental slope of the Eurasian part of the Arctic Ocean, focusing on the fate of warm Atlantic Water and the observed heat loss of the Arctic Boundary Current (ABC). The results show that mixing with colder water along the continental margins is a significant contribution to AW heat loss, and the importance of both surface warming and increased vertical mixing in a future ice-free Arctic Ocean in summer is highlighted.

A Changing Arctic Ocean: How Measured and Modeled 129I Distributions Indicate Fundamental Shifts in Circulation Between 1994 and 2015

John N. Smith, Michael Karcher, Nuria Casacuberta, William J. Williams, Tim Kenna, William M. Smethie

Summary: I-129 measurements on samples collected during GEOTRACES oceanographic missions in the Arctic Ocean in 2015 provide insights into circulation changes and their impact on I-129 distributions, with simulations supporting this interpretation. Changes in Arctic circulation are revealed by comparisons of I-129 distributions between the mid-1990s and 2015, showing shifts from cyclonic to anticyclonic circulation regimes.

Julienne Stroeve, Martin Vancoppenolle, Gaelle Veyssiere, Marion Lebrun, Giulia Castellani, Marcel Babin, Michael Karcher, Jack Landy, Glen E. Liston, Jeremy Wilkinson

Summary: This study examines the impact of Arctic sea ice changes on under-ice light and algae growth, highlighting the importance of snow depth and thin ice fraction in light penetration into the Arctic Ocean. It also suggests a method to map under-ice light using satellite and modeled data, while identifying changing factors in different seasons.

Measuring sea ice thickness with the LOZA georadar

P. A. Morozov, A. Berkut, P. L. Vorovsky, F. P. Morozov, S. Pisarev

Summary: The article documents the use of portable georadar for measuring the thickness of sea ice. The LOZA georadar, equipped with a transmitter with a pulse power of 1 MW, is able to accurately measure the thickness of both flat and highly deformed ice over large areas. Multiple measurements carried out on the one-year ice of the eastern shelf of Sakhalin Island have shown the device's effectiveness in providing quick and precise measurements with high spatial resolution.

Summary: This study conducted year-round observations of the physical properties and processes of snow and ice in the Arctic Ocean, aiming to understand the interaction between the ice pack, atmosphere, and ocean. The results showed that the spatial variability of snow is crucial for understanding snow-related feedback processes, and the ice pack undergoes rapid transformations and motions during drift. These findings are important for improving climate models and validating remote sensing methods.

Summary: With the Arctic rapidly changing, there is a crucial need to observe, understand, and model these changes. The MOSAiC expedition successfully documented and characterized various aspects of the Arctic atmospheric system through a comprehensive observational program. The observations revealed the significant influence of atmospheric variability and highlighted the higher temperatures and moisture near the sea ice edge during summer. The obtained data will support further research and modeling capabilities in the Arctic.

Summary: The Arctic is experiencing a shift from thick multi-year ice to thinner first-year ice, which has implications for light transmission and biological activity. In late summer, two different states of first-year ice exist in the region: decayed and robust, each with different characteristics. Additionally, all ice types show consistently low salinity, chlorophyll a concentrations, and nutrients.

Summary: This study examines the mixing processes and sea ice drift in the ice-ocean boundary layer (IOBL) near the geographic North Pole. Measurements of ice motion, currents, hydrography, and turbulence were conducted to quantify the transport of momentum, heat, and salt in the IOBL.

Spatial variation and species transformation of 129I and 127I in the Central Arctic Ocean

Luyuan Zhang, Xiaolin Hou, Justin P. Gwynn, Michael Karcher, Ning Chen, Yukun Fan, Qi Liu

Summary: The study investigated the spatial distributions of anthropogenic 129I and natural 127I species in the upper central Arctic Ocean. It was found that the ratios of reductive iodide (I-) to oxidative iodate (IO-3) varied in different regions, with higher concentrations and ratios observed over certain ridges. Along the main transport pathway of Atlantic water, the ratios gradually decreased, indicating the slow oxidation of I- back to IO-3. This research provides insights into the marine geochemical cycling of iodine and highlights the potential of iodine species, particularly 129I, as indicators of changes in surface water redox conditions in the Arctic Ocean due to climate change.
