• Main sources controlling atmospheric burdens of persistent organic pollutants on a national scale 

  Halvorsen, Helene Lunder; Bohlin-Nizzetto, Pernilla; Eckhardt, Sabine; Gusev, Alexey; Krogseth, Ingjerd Sunde; Möckel, Claudia; Shatalov, Victor; Skogeng, Lovise Pedersen; Breivik, Knut (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)

  National long-term monitoring programs on persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in background air have traditionally relied on active air sampling techniques. Due to limited spatial coverage of active air samplers, questions ...

• Seasonal Variation of Wet Deposition of Black Carbon at Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard 

  Mori, Tatsuhiro; Kondo, Yutaka; Ohata, Sho; Goto-Azuma, Kumiko; Fukuda, Kaori; Ogawa-Tsukagawa, Yoshimi; Moteki, Nobuhiro; Yoshida, Atsushi; Koike, Makoto; Sinha, P. R.; Oshima, Naga; Matsui, Hitoshi; Tobo, Yutaka; Yabuki, Masanori; Aas, Wenche (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)

  Black carbon (BC) aerosol deposited in and onto Arctic snow increases the snow's absorption of solar radiation and accelerates snowmelt. Concentrations of BC in the Arctic atmosphere and snow are controlled by wet deposition; ...

• Observed and Modeled Black Carbon Deposition and Sources in the Western Russian Arctic 1800−2014 

  Ruppel, Meri M.; Eckhardt, Sabine; Pesonen, Antto; Mizohata, Kenichiro; Oinonen, Markku J.; Stohl, Andreas; Andersson, August; Jones, Vivienne J.; Jones, Vivienne J.; Manninen, Sirkku; Gustafsson, Örjan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)

  Black carbon (BC) particles contribute to climate warming by heating the atmosphere and reducing the albedo of snow/ice surfaces. The available Arctic BC deposition records are restricted to the Atlantic and North American ...

• Microplastic Fiber Emissions From Wastewater Effluents: Abundance, Transport Behavior and Exposure Risk for Biota in an Arctic Fjord 

  Herzke, Dorte; Ghaffari, Peygham; Sundet, Jan Henry; Tranang, Caroline Aas; Halsband, Claudia (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)

  Microfibers (MF) are one of the major classes of microplastic found in the marine environment on a global scale. Very little is known about how they move and distribute from point sources such as wastewater effluents into ...

• Eastward-Propagating Planetary Waves Prior to the January 2009 Sudden Stratospheric Warming 

  Rhodes, Christian Todd; Limpasuvan, Varavut; Orsolini, Yvan J. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)

  Eastward-propagating planetary waves (EPWs) were investigated prior to the boreal January 2009 major sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) event simulated by the National Center for Atmospheric Research's Whole Atmosphere ...
