- Abstract
- Ice algae thriving within sea ice play a crucial role in transferring energy to higher trophic levels and influencing biogeochemical processes in polar oceans; however, the distribution of organic matter within the ice interior is not well understood. This study aimed to investigate the vertical distribution of organic matter, including chlorophyll a (Chl-a), particulate organic carbon and nitrogen (POC and PON), carbohydrates (CHO), proteins (PRT), lipids (LIP), and food material (FM), within the sea ice. Samples were collected from the bottom, middle, and top sections of the sea ice column near Cambridge Bay during the spring of 2018. Based on the delta C-13 signature, biochemical composition, and POC contribution of biopolymeric carbon (BPC), the organic substances within the sea ice were predominantly attributed to marine autotrophs. While the highest concentrations of each parameter were observed at the sea ice bottom, notable concentrations were also found in the upper sections. The average sea ice column-integrated Chl-a concentration was 5.05 +/- 2.26 mg m(-2), with the bottom ice section contributing 59% (S.D. = +/- 10%) to the total integration. The column-integrated concentrations of FM, BPC, POC, and PON were 2.05 +/- 0.39, 1.10 +/- 0.20, 1.47 +/- 0.25, and 0.09 +/- 0.03 g m(-2), respectively. Contributions of the bottom ice section to these column-integrated concentrations varied for each parameter, with values of 20 +/- 6, 21 +/- 7, 19 +/- 5, and 28 +/- 7%, respectively. While the bottom ice section exhibited a substantial Chl-a contribution in line with previous studies, significantly higher contributions of the other parameterswere observed in the upper sea ice sections. This suggests that the particulate matter within the interior of the sea ice could potentially serve as an additional food source for higher trophic grazers or act as a seedingmaterial for a phytoplankton bloomduring the ice melting season. Our findings highlight the importance of comprehensive field measurements encompassing the entire sea ice section to better understand
