Overview

Analysis reveals rising marine organic carbon levels in Kongsfjorden, suggesting ongoing Atlantification in Arctic fjords.

Key Points

  • Marine organic carbon accumulation rates significantly increased in Kongsfjorden over recent decades, indicating a shift in organic carbon sources.
  • Using a four-source apportionment approach, contributions from marine, terrestrial, and petrogenic organic carbon were assessed reliably.
  • This observational analysis assessed sedimentary organic carbon dynamics using multicores collected during 2022 and 2023.
  • Findings suggest ongoing Atlantification may impact biogeochemical processes in Arctic fjords, highlighting climate change consequences.
