Nitrous oxide and methane in a changing Arctic Ocean
Abstract Human activities are changing the Arctic environment at an unprecedented rate resulting in rapid warming, freshening, sea ice retreat and ocean acidification of the Arctic Ocean. Trace gases such as nitrous oxide (N 2 O) and methane (CH 4 ) play important roles in both the atmospheric react...
