Research group Group Snoeijs Leijonmalm

My research interests are biodiversity and food-web interactions. Since 1982 I have worked on the coastal and pelagic systems of the brackish Baltic Sea and since 2002 also on the sea-ice and pelagic systems of the Central Arctic Ocean (CAO). Today I mainly focus on two research projects in the CAO.

Ecosystem mapping in the Central Arctic Ocean

The marine ecosystem around the North Pole, the Central Arctic Ocean (CAO), is in fast transition from a permanently to a seasonally ice-covered ocean as a result of global warming. The sea-ice loss will enable summer access to the CAO for non-icebreaking ships, including fishery vessels, in the near future and this project is assessing the impact.
