Protist assemblages in winter sea ice: setting the stage for the spring ice algal bloom (2011, background): “Protist abundances within new ice formed during the fall are generally higher than in underlying surface waters, and there is a clear selection for larger-sized cells within the ice relative to surface waters (Gradinger and Ikävalko 1998; Riedel et al. 2007; Rórajska et al. 2008).”
Arctic sea ice in transformation: A review of recent observed changes and impacts on biology and human activity (2014, background): “Late ice formation and the increase of winter polynyas and open leads in the ice may also influence processes of incorporation of protist cells in the forming ice matrix, with potential impacts on the biomass and composition of spring ice algal communities [Riedel et al., 2007; Niemi et al., 2011].”
