The latest findings on the MOSAiC floe

floe: the sea ice in which the research vessel Polarstern is now drifting through the Arctic was formed off the coast of the archipelago, which separates the East Siberian Sea and the Laptev Sea to the north [...] north of Siberia, in December 2018. Sediments, and even small pebbles and bivalves, were incorporated into the ice during the freezing process, which the on-going melting process has brought to light on

The return of the European oyster to the North Sea

Researchers of the Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research, together with the Bremerhaven Zoo have developed a special exhibition on the reintroduction of the European oyster (Ostrea edulis) into the North Sea. On display are living European oysters in an aquarium, a detailed model of an oyster reef and its inhabitants as well as background information on the ecological importance of the species in the exhibition.

It tolerates water temperatures between zero [...] temperatures and lower pH values.

Ocean warming has led to cod stocks shifting and to them disappearing from the North Sea. In Bremerhaven, for example, cod fishing used to be the main source of income for the city. Nowadays

In summer [...] the vacant fish tanks with hundreds of juvenile Atlantic and Polar cod. For this purpose they head north, pass by the port of Tromsø in Norway, and continue further to their destination: Spitsbergen. Here [...] have a suspicion: Due to warming water temperatures the Atlantic cod ventures farther and farther north and is now settling in the Arctic waters of the archipelago – where it encounters the region’s key
