Spatial Variability in the Primary Production Rates and Biomasses (Chl a) of Sea Ice Algae in the Canadian Arctic–Greenland Region: A Review
The aims of this review are to elucidate the spatial variation in the primary production rates and biomasses (Chl a) of sea ice algae in the Canadian Arctic–Greenland region, characterized by its comparable physical settings. A database was compiled from 30 studies of the production rates and biomas...

The aims of this review are to elucidate the spatial variation in the primary production rates and biomasses (Chl a) of sea ice algae in the Canadian Arctic–Greenland region, characterized by its comparable physical settings. A database was compiled from 30 studies of the production rates and biomasses (Chl a) of sea ice algae, the snow and ice thicknesses, ice types, nutrients (Si(OH) 4 , PO 4 , (NO 3 + NO 2 )), and NH 4 concentrations in the ice and below the ice from the region. Production rates were significantly higher (463 mg C m −2 d −1 ) in Resolute Bay and Northern Baffin Bay (317 mg C m −2 d −1 ), both in the Canadian Arctic, compared to a rate of 0.2 mg C m −2 d −1 in northeast Greenland. The biomasses reached 340 mg Chl a m −2 in Resolute Bay in comparison to 0.02 mg Chl a m −2 in southwest Greenland. Primary production at other Canadian and Greenland sites was comparable, but sea ice Chl a was higher (15.0 ± 13.4 mg Chl a m −2 ) at Canadian sites compared to Greenland ones (0.8 ± 0.5 mg Chl a m −2 ).
