PurposeResearch
ObjectivesThe ICE CHASER II (CHAnging Sea-ice and Ecosystem Response) research cruise was undertaken as part of the UK Natural Environment Research Council Oceans2025 strategic marine strategic research programme. The cruise was organised and led by the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS) as part of the SAMS Oceans2025 research topic "Arctic and Boreal Seas in a Rapidly Changing Climate".

The overall scientific objective of research cruise was to improve understanding of how changing sea ice and water column structure influence Arctic ecosystem structure and function, and subsequent biologically derived carbon export, and thereby help refine models of ecosystem response to environmental change.This was achieved by delivering novel and comprehensive observational and experimental data sets on sympagic, pelagic and benthic biogeochemical parameters in the Greenland Sea and Svalbard shelf waters during the Arctic summer. A comparative approach was adopted with multidisciplinary studies focused on stations in open waters, marginal ice zone and full ice covered environments. Physical oceanographic and palaeo-oceanographic observations were also undertaken to examine
(i) mixing in the region of the Atlantic Water boundary
(ii) Holocene variability in sea ice, glacial extent and the northward transport of North Atlantic Water around western Svalbard.

Additional studies were conducted during transit from the UK to Svalbard.
