Yes/no. Some brief flickering of lights and some quick succession images in flashbacks. Both can be slightly disorienting but aren't terribly intense or long. Likely only a bother if you are very sensitive.

There is a moral dilemma for two characters that see an animal that cannot survive on its own. Due to laws, they are not allowed to intefere, so it's abandoning an animal to its fate

Although a woman is assaulted, it is not merely for spectacle but should still be noted.

Yes/no. Murder mystery built on some level of deception and conflicting stories, but not gaslighting in the typical sense.
However a character does emotionally manipulate others in the very last episode for their own purpose.

Depending on interpretation of characters finding something on someone's phone, one character may be a pedophile. It also may have been something else found on their phone since it isn't explicitly called out what it is beyond "illegal" and other characters expressing disgust. Not shown on screen and not clear on what it was.

The seal is at about 11 mins and 20 seconds in. It's not in the water, the seal's on land. The scene starts with a woman on the deck of the facility looking out into the dark The squealing goes on for almost two minutes. She has a conversation with a male character next to the lost seal as it's squealing talking about how they aren't allowed to help it. The woman walks off anf it then jumps to 6 months later. At about 30 mins the Maggie in her hospital bed says, "we were burying the seal. That's when it all started," or something to that effect. The seal is not the next scene. If you don't want to see the seal, you can keep watching until about 38:40 when you see a man digging a hole in the ice with the dead seal next to him. Presumably, that's the burial. That's the end of it.

While this is never directly stated or shown, it is implied that one character is viewing CSAM. This may be triggering to some viewers.

A woman is being coerced, forcibly grabbed, and touched against her will. The assault does not take place because **Spoiler** her would be rapist pushes and accidentally kills her.

Because the character did not consent to being recorded, it could be considered onscreen rape

Warning, it is never stated what disturbing things are found on a character's phone but there is some implication it may be CSAM. They do not directly reference, but this may still be triggering to some viewers.

Most of the winter crew are found dead, which seems to be the premise--finding out what happened

Moments of extreme close ups where the camera is shakey. This is also accompanied by a high pitch that might cause headaches or cause discomfort.

There is some misogyny. Female characters use hate speech to highlight unfair standards, and male characters also throw those terms back in their face.
