Environmental conditions in the Eurasian Basin in September 2021. Mean sea ice concentration during the survey (a) and sea ice drift at the time of sampling (b). Mean ocean velocity in the 25–250 m depth layer (c), temperature (d) and salinity (e) in the upper 500 m. The part of the water column covered by the trawl hauls (Harstad or macroplankton or both) are shown with
(in d and e) and bathymetry is shown in (f). The location of the trawl locations (
) and CTD stations (
) are shown in all panels.
