Abstract

The second phase of the Arctic Challenge for Sustainability (ArCS II) project funded by the Japanese government was launched in June 2020. The Ocean Research Program of this project was engaged in research on Arctic marine environments and production of corresponding public datasets. Sub-program 1 was established to explore ocean heat/freshwater transport and biogeochemical cycles in seasonal and multi-year sea ice zones. Sub-program 2 focused on assessment of the vulnerability and resilience of marine ecosystems in response to rapid sea ice retreat. Sub-program 3 examined air–sea interactions related to sea ice and waves. The expected outcomes included refinement of Earth System Models, advancement of ecosystem-based fishery management, and development of safer maritime navigation. This article compiles the major findings of sub-programs 1 and 3, together with brief summaries on the research cruises, sea ice field campaigns, and modeling experiments conducted through various international collaborations. The scientific achievements of the ArCS II research activities foster a deeper understanding of the effects of climate change and provide information for socioeconomic benefit.

海洋运输和海陆空相互作用调节的北极海洋环境：来自ArCS II海洋研究计划的发现

由日本政府资助的北极可持续发展挑战（ArCS II）项目的第二阶段于2020年6月启动。该项目的海洋研究项目主要从事北极海洋环境的研究和相关公共数据集的制作。子项目1旨在探索季节性和多年海冰带的海洋热/淡水运输和生物地球化学循环。子项目2侧重于评估海洋生态系统对海冰快速消退的脆弱性和复原力。子方案3检查了与海冰和波浪有关的海气相互作用。预期结果包括改进地球系统模型，推进基于生态系统的渔业管理，以及发展更安全的海上航行。本文汇编了子项目1和子项目3的主要发现，以及通过各种国际合作进行的研究巡航、海冰实地考察和模拟实验的简要总结。ArCS II研究活动的科学成果促进了对气候变化影响的更深入了解，并为社会经济效益提供了信息。

期刊介绍： Polar Science is an international, peer-reviewed quarterly journal. It is dedicated to publishing original research articles for sciences relating to the polar regions of the Earth and other planets. Polar Science aims to cover 15 disciplines which are listed below; they cover most aspects of physical sciences, geosciences and life sciences, together with engineering and social sciences. Articles should attract the interest of broad polar science communities, and not be limited to the interests of those who work under specific research subjects. Polar Science also has an Open Archive whereby published articles are made freely available from ScienceDirect after an embargo period of 24 months from the date of publication. - Space and upper atmosphere physics - Atmospheric science/climatology - Glaciology - Oceanography/sea ice studies - Geology/petrology - Solid earth geophysics/seismology - Marine Earth science - Geomorphology/Cenozoic-Quaternary geology - Meteoritics - Terrestrial biology - Marine biology - Animal ecology - Environment - Polar Engineering - Humanities and social sciences.
