\begin{abstract}
Chukchi Sea benthic ostracode assemblages collected during a research
cruise aboard the USCGC Healy in 2017 are compared to collections from
past years, primarily 2009 and 2010, with a goal of understanding recent
species changes related to temperature, total organic carbon (TOC) and
sediment grain size. The study area includes the continental shelf
region influenced by the Alaska Coastal Current and the northward
extension of the Bering Sea Shelf waters that flow through Bering
Strait. Significant temporal (decadal, interannual) and spatial
variability in the proportions of dominant species in the assemblage
were observed, including an increase in subarctic species, particularly,
Normanicythere leioderma, which is typically dominant in the Bering Sea,
but which showed a notable range expansion in 2017 into the Chukchi Sea
(20\% of the 2017 Chukchi Sea assemblage). Secondary subarctic species
with increasing abundance include Schizocythere ikeyai (8\%) and
Munseyella kiklukhensis (7\%). A corresponding decline in dominance of
Paracyprideis pseudopunctillata (4\%), a common Arctic species in
Chukchi, Beaufort and Laptev Sea assemblages, is another significant
change. Continued monitoring of temperature-sensitive ostracode species
in the Bering and Chukchi Seas is planned to provide additional
information on annual and decadal variability in species dominance.%
