Green house gas exchange and the carbon cycle in the Arctic coastal areas
Green house gas exchange and the carbon cycle in the Arctic coastal areas
The overall aim is to determine the extent changing sea ice condition affects the surface fluxes over different marine surfaces within a high Arctic fjord system. We will examine to what extent temperature influences the surface flux of carbon, and other climatically important gases, in addition to an on-going focus onto the effects of sea ice life stages on the surface exchange of carbon containing gases within the marine cryosphere.
