The Arctic freshwater [...] contributes to a destabilization of the Greenland ice streams. We observed Atlantic water warming in Fram Strait and this water is likely to affect the (presently) stable North East Greenland ice stream (NEGIS)

At the marginal sea ice zone of the western Fram Strait [...] warm and salty Atlantic waters, experienced earlier (end of April) and longer blooms. In the eastern Fram Strait, stratification due to solar warming proved to act as a guiding factor for the the open ocean [...] Boetius, A.

October 2016
During the sixth week of expedition PS101 we are making our way home through the ice. A FRAM “superbuoy” station needs to be rescued before we leave the ice.

4 September 2016
Today we have completed our research programme at the Knipovich Ridge south of Fram Strait. We are now on the transit toward Tromsø, where we will arrive in the morning of 6 September

week was characterized by intense station work both in the West Spitsbergen Current and in central Fram Strait.
