In this thesis, I present a unique temporal study of phytoplankton, nutrient and environmental dynamics that focussed on the transitional period between sea-ice cover conditions and open waters in a coastal inlet of the Canadian Arctic during 2016. I also compared the 2016 experimental data with con...
