But in summer 2011, a NASA expedition to study the impacts of climate change in the Arctic found massive blooms of phytoplankton, tiny plant-like creatures essential for all sea life, thriving below the floating ice pack just north of Alaska. Researchers suspect changes to the Arctic Ocean's frozen ice cover are behind these blooms. Shallow melt ponds riddle the thinning ice at the edges of the ice cap, acting as natural skylights that allow sunlight to reach the nutrient-rich waters below. These conditions create the perfect breeding ground for phytoplankton. The visualization shows phytoplankton concentrations observed at different depths along the expedition's sampling route in the Chukchi Sea from July 3-8, 2011. || ", "hits": 35 }, { "id": 3927, "url": "http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/3927/", "result_type": "Visualization", "release_date": "2012-06-07T12:00:00-04:00", "title": "ICESCAPE Mission Measures High Chlorophyll-a Under the Ice", "description": "ICESCAPE is a multi-year NASA mission to study biogeochemical and ecological impacts of climate change in the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas in the Arctic. During 2011, the ICESCAPE mission acquired data while sailing on the US Coast Guard Cutter Healy. This visualization shows both the technique used by the ICESCAPE mission to take data measurements as well as some of the data that was taken.The visualization shows the ICESCAPE ship's path through the Chukchi and Beaufort seas north of Alaska from July 3, 2011 through July 8, 2011. The ship stops and takes measurements along the way. The measurements are taken by canisters lowered to various depths that sample the water. The measurement depths range from 1.8 meters to 149.3 meters below sea level. The sets of measurements are broken into two transects. The first transect is the trip out into the ice. The second transect is the trip back. Topography (above sea level) is exaggerated 10 times. Bathymetry (below sea level) is exaggerated 200 times in order differentiate the measurements.The colors of the measurements (i.e,. stations) correspond to the color bar below which represent chlorophyll-a concentrations. Measurements that are depicted by spheres were acquired while the ship was in open water while measurements depicted by cubes were acquired when the ship was in ice. As data is collected, a wall of interpolated data is generated.An important finding of this research was that high concentrations of chlorophyll-a were found under the ice. || ", "hits": 41 }, { "id": 10953, "url": "http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/10953/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2012-04-26T00:00:00-04:00", "title": "Swirling Seas", "description": "As Earth hurtles around its axis at 1,000 miles per hour, its rotation sets the seas in motion and generates winds that bear down on the ocean surface. The fast-moving currents, swirling eddies and powerful drifts that result appear at first glance as a disorderly jumble of flows. Yet their movements are directed by enormous, rotating currents, called gyres, which slowly circulate water around the planet's major ocean basins. The visualizations below combine NASA satellite data with field measurements to present a modeled view of surface flows and gyres in the Northern Hemisphere from March 2007 to March 2008. Observe the dramatic difference in strength between westward and eastward currents as they hook clockwise in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. And notice how westward currents explode into spiraling, turbulent flows off the eastern coasts of Asia and North America. || ", "hits": 109 }, { "id": 10773, "url": "http://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/10773/", "result_type": "Produced Video", "release_date": "2011-05-19T11:00:00-04:00", "title": "Mississippi Flooding 2011", "description": "Heavy spring rains and snowmelt led to devastating floods along the Mississippi River in May 2011.
