Protist assemblages in winter sea ice: setting the stage for the spring ice algal bloom (2011, background): “2009). In this study, we investigated sea-ice protist assemblages that survive the dark winter period, as they constitute the baseline (i.e., starting point) for the development of the productive spring ice algal bloom (Horner and Schrader 1982; Rorajska et al. 2009 ).”
The pan-Arctic biodiversity of marine pelagic and sea-ice unicellular eukaryotes: a first-attempt assessment (2011, background): “…closterium, Entomoneis kjellmanii, Fragilariopsis cylindrus, F. oceanica, Navicula directa, Nitzschia frigida and Pauliella taeniata are always strongly associated with the bottom horizon of landfast and pack ice (Melnikov et al. 2002; Różańska et al. 2009; von Quillfeldt et al. 2009).”
Timing of reproductive events in the marine copepod Calanus glacialis: a pan-Arctic perspective (2013, methodology): “Chl a concentration of ice algae was measured from the bottom 4 cm of ice cores taken between 27 February and 20 June 2004 as described in Róz˙an´ska et al. (2009) and Riedel et al. (2008).”
