Research Objectives: The Western Arctic Shelf Basin Interactions project is a multi-year, interdisciplinary program investigating the impact of global change on physical, biological and geochemical processes over the Chukcki and Beaufort Sea shelf basin region in the Western Arctic Ocean. Measurements of organic carbon from sinking particles in the water column will be used to construct a carbon budget for the Chukchi Sea.
