The study investigated vertical particle fluxes and associated environmental parameters in the southern part of the Kara Sea in September 2022 on the basis of a 5-day deployment of two moored Automatic Deep-Sea Sedimentation Observatories with sediment traps and CTD, currents and hydrooptical profilers.
The studies have shown that the distribution of suspended particulate organic carbon in the seas of the Russian Arctic is characterized by сircumcontinental and vertical zonalities. These zonalities are manifested in decreasing concentrations and therefore fluxes (mgC/m2 /day) of suspended particulate organic carbon in the transition from the near-continental to pelagic areas of the Arctic Ocean, as well as from the surface photic layer to the near-bottom layer by two orders of magnitude, which is confirmed by instrumental data of sedimentation traps and correlates with the zoning of bio-production processes.
The study investigated vertical particle fluxes and associated environmental parameters in the northern part of the Barents Sea in August 2020. The results of a 5-day deployment of mooring referred to as ‘Automatic Deep-Sea Sedimentation Observatory’ (ADOS) with sediment traps and CTD and current profilers are discussed in this study.
