Abstract:<p>Biogeochemical cycling of silicon (Si) in the high latitudes has an important influence on the marine Si budget. The Barents Sea is divided aproximately equally into Arctic and Atlantic water (ArW and AW respectively) domains.&#160; However, increases in the temperature and inflow of AW across the Barents Sea opening is driving an expansion of the AW realm. While the sensitivity of pelagic processes pertaining to primary production is receiving increasingly more attention, less is know… Show more
