Short summary
In September 2021, the Italian Arctic Research Programme funded a multidisciplinary study along 75° N in the Greenland Sea as part of the CASSANDRA project and the Synoptic Arctic Survey (SAS) programme. This study emphasises the spatial variability of water properties, nutrient distribution, and biological communities determined by oceanographic dynamics in a region influenced by sea ice melting, Atlantic Water inflow, and climatic teleconnections during a record low summer sea ice extent.
