The processes that trigger the onset of the melt are poorly understood, partly because there are very few in-situ observations from when it happens. One plausible hypothesis is that a triggering factor is intrusions of warm and moist air from south, altering the surface energy budget in several ways, but very few observations exist to support this. Most icebreaker assisted field campaigns are at the end of summer, when it is easier to navigate in the ice, but in spring of 2023 the ARTofMELT (Atmospheric rivers and the onset of sea-ice melt) program will take the Swedish research icebreaker Oden up into the Arctic sea ice already in May and June, with an aim to improve the understanding of when and how melt actually starts. As a part of the preparations and planning we invite to a mini-symposium on this theme together with the Bolin Centre. Program: 13.00-13.10 Welcome from the Bolin Centre 13.10-13.30 Background and framework of ARTofMELT (Michael Tjernström, MISU & Paul Zieger, ACES) 13.30-14.00 The role of warm-air intrusions for the surface energy budget, near surface temperatures and sea-ice evolution in the Arctic (Sonja Murto, MISU) 14.00-14.30 Intrusions of warm and moist air - and aerosols: Some results from the MOSAiC expedition (Julia Schmale, EPFL, Switzerland) 14.30-15.00 Coffee break 15.00-15.30 Following warm air intrusions in models – results from the YOPP/TOP during the MOSAiC campaign (Gunilla Svensson, MISU) 15.30-16.00 Ny-Ålesund – a supersite to study what is coming in and out of the high Arctic (Radovan Krejci, ACES) 16.00-16.30 Warm air intrusions into the Arctic: Atmospheric patterns and water isotopic forensics (Jeff Welker, University of the Arctic & the universities at Oulo and Anchorage) 16.30-17.00 Open discussion -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

All this is thanks to many productive scientists in our centre. Among all the datasets published in the last 12 months, are a few outstanding items which are in some way more than a single typical dataset. In particular, we want to highlight: Oden Scientific Party (2022) Oden data repository. Dataset version 5. https://doi.org/10.17043/oden-data-repository-5 (https://doi.org/10.17043/oden-data-repository-5) . This is a collection of 123 datasets acquired at the Swedish icebreaker Oden during 19 expeditions held between 2007 and 2021, of which 16 went to the Arctic Ocean and 3 to the Southern Ocean. This collection is expected to grow, and new versions with more datasets will be published as soon as the scientists make them available. Tarfala Research Station staff (2022) Elevation of the ice-covered southern peak, Sydtoppen, of the Kebnekaise massif, Northern Sweden. https://doi.org/10.17043/tarfala-sydtoppen-elevation-1 (https://doi.org/10.17043/tarfala-sydtoppen-elevation-1) . This is the first dataset to be published in what we plan to be a collection with many more datasets from the Tarfala Research Station. Thus, we hope that there will soon be a Tarfala data collection that will look somewhat similar to the one with data from Oden. Sylvain Monteux (2022) Data analysis pipeline for bacterial community composition and CO₂ fluxes in a permafrost-Collembola incubation. Software version 1.1.1. Bolin Centre Code Repository. https://doi.org/10.57669/monteux-2022-collembola-1.1.1 (https://doi.org/10.57669/monteux-2022-collembola-1.1.1) We show this as an example to demonstrate both that we have a repository for source code and that we can mint DOIs to specific versions of a source code project. We have been minting DOIs to our datasets already since 2019, but now we also do it for source code. Another important piece of news from the Bolin Centre Database is our web pages with information about research data support at the Bolin Centre (https://bolin.su.se/data/support/ (https://bolin.su.se/data/support/) ), which we released just before summer this year. These pages contain information on what kind of support and service our scientists can get, both from support staff within the Bolin Centre and from the central Research Data Management Team at Stockholm University. For example, detailed information about how to publish data and code is found at https://bolin.su.se/data/support/publish (https://bolin.su.se/data/support/publish) . All our scientists are welcome to contribute to our growing data and code repositories! Please, contact the database staff at bolindata at su.se (mailto:bolindata at su.se) if you need assistance. The Bolin Centre News Letter provides you with a selection of our current activities and latest news and is sent to all members of the Bolin Centre.

Christian is a glaciologist, geologist and geochemist. His research interests are the effects of climate variations on the cryosphere, and environmental pollution in northern high-latitude regions. Biogeochemistry Seminar Series Mercury and organic carbon in subarctic rivers of NW Canada Christian Zdanowicz Department of Earth Sciences, Uppsala University Wednesday 21 September 15:30‐16:30 HÖGBOMSALEN The Geoscience Building, Stockholm University This seminar will present highlights and key findings of an investigation into terrestrial sources of organic carbon (OC) and mercury (Hg) in rivers of the Mackenzie River Basin, northwestern Canada. The study aimed at providing insights into inputs and exports of OC and Hg within and out of the Mackenzie River Basin, a region partly underlain by permafrost and which currently experiences some of the fastest warming rates on Earth. The study combined the use of isotopic tracers (of Hg and C), as well as optical properties of DOC, and also took advantage of a large dataset of water quality data collected by local communities in this region since 2012.

Details of the talk and the speaker biography are below. *Title: Blue Carbon in Canada; its pros and cons as a nature-based climate solution. ** **Time: Monday 3 October, 14:00** **Place: William-Olsson lecture hall, Geohuset (*see map in link below)* Hope to see many of you here for what promises to be a really interesting talk from a great speaker. Best, Agatha *ABSTRACT* Vegetated coastal ecosystems have been proposed as nature-based climate solutions because of their potential to sequester significant amounts of “blue carbon” while also providing co-benefits for biodiversity and shoreline protection. Global assessments frequently use broad generalizations to estimate the global potential of blue carbon. However, using blue carbon as a nature-based climate solution requires detailed understanding of regionally-specific processes governing blue carbon storage. Our research aims to understand controls on salt marsh and eelgrass ecosystems on the Pacific Coast of Canada. Through field, laboratory, and remote sensing efforts, our work indicates that C stocks and C accumulation rates in eelgrass systems along the Pacific coast are 10 times lower than the global averages. In Pacific coast salt marshes, C stocks are lower than global averages, but C accumulation rates are comparable or higher than global estimates, and each marsh exhibits strong spatial variability. We show that our knowledge of the areal extent of these ecosystems remains poor, with global datasets overestimating Pacific salt marsh area by factors of 2 to 5. Our future work aims to provide a holistic understanding of the carbon budgets of these marshes, through estimation of greenhouse gas emissions and better quantification of in-situ and ex-situ carbon contributions. Ultimately, the implementation of blue carbon as a nature-based climate solution requires an understanding of the physical processes, but also consideration of the social, economic, and political factors that influence their ability for long-term carbon sequestration. *BIO of Karen Kohfeld:* Dr. Karen Kohfeld is professor and director the School of Environmental Science, and professor in the School of Resource and Environmental Management and  at Simon Fraser University. Internationally, Karen is known for her work on past climates and the global carbon cycle, specifically using of global datasets to understand the roles of atmospheric dust, ocean productivity, and ocean circulation in modulating long-term changes in climate and the global carbon cycle. In 2006, Karen formed the Climate, Oceans, and Paleo- Environments (COPE) laboratory at Simon Fraser University where she also focuses on regional changes in climate and the carbon cycle. Through collaborations with Metro Vancouver, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, and Parks Canada, she involves students in research on changes in ocean acidification, past climate and fire behavior in western Canada, and understanding carbon storage dynamics in coastal wetlands and lacustrine environments.  A 2022 recipient of an honorary Ph.D. degree from Stockholm University, Dr. Kohfeld currently serves on the External Advisory Group for the Bolin Centre for Climate Research at Stockholm University and as a member of the Canadian Council of Academies’ Panel on Canada’s Carbon Sink Potential. * For location of the lecture hall, please refer to the following link: https://www.su.se/department-of-geological-sciences/education/new-student/our-lecture-halls-1.523740 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This information may help you if you are approached privately, in class, or by media. The current estimated annual emission of methane from the Baltic is about 1100 to 1800 tons per year according to older estimates Bange (1994). This number, however, may be an underestimate and ignore seepage point sources, but the order of magnitude can serve as a useful guideline. Continuous surface water methane measurements for deeper waters of the Baltic Sea on the ferryline Finnmaid so far at least do not contradict these estimates (Gülzow et al., 2014). The calculated volume of gas in the pipeline has been reported to be about 170-300 Million m3. This translates into a mass of 121 - 214 tons of methane that would be emitted if the total pipeline were emptied out. The methane may leak from depths between around 30 to 90 meters. The emission from the pipeline takes place as free gas. Methane is very insoluble and only 3.5% can be dissolved in water, and the rate of dissolution is slow. This means that one cubic meter of water at 9 bars pressure can dissolve 384 grams of methane. If the pressure decreases, such as in surface water, only about 32 grams dissolve. Methane can be oxidized to CO2 in water, but the process is slow, whether this occurs with oxygen or other oxidants. Since the CO2 concentrations in the affected water would increase, pH would drop at least temporarily in the affected area. It is a good first order estimate that much of the leaking methane will escape to the atmosphere. The average life time of methane in the atmosphere is around 9-12 years and dependent on the hydroxyl radical concentrations. The hydroxyl radical concentration is dependent on UV radiation. Removal reactions are slower during the fall and winter months, which leads to a commonly observed slight increase in methane concentrations during fall, winter, and early spring. While the average calculated lifetime of methane is 12 years, this number may of little reference value on the current case given the high concentrations at the point source. Overall, therefore the incident makes a measurable impact on the regional methane budget, but the global climate impact is small.
