Exchanges with the Atlantic [...] place via two comparatively narrow passages. As a result, the Arctic Ocean is an extremely nutrient-poor one, where less algae grows than in the waters of the temperate latitudes – which also means

our knowledge of the sea ice in the Arctic and Antarctic is constantly growing, we still don’t understand all the connections and phenomena. Two examples: because the thickness of the Arctic sea ice is steadily declining and meltwater pools are increasingly forming in summer, covering large areas of the Arctic sea ice, both the ice and the ocean below absorb more solar radiation. As a result, more algae grow, marine biomass production increases and more carbon is taken up
