SPREADING OF ANTARCTIC BOTTOM WATER IN THE ATLANTIC OCEAN [PDF]
Geography, Environment, Sustainability, 2012 This paper describes the transport of bottom water from its source region in the Weddell Sea through the abyssal channels of the Atlantic Ocean. The research brings together the recent observations and historical data.

Flow of Antarctic Bottom water from the Vema Channel [PDF]
Geoscience Letters, 2020 We analyze measurements of bottom currents and thermohaline properties of water north of the Vema Channel with the goal to find pathway continuations of Antarctic Bottom Water flow from the Vema Channel into the Brazil Basin. The analysis is based on CTD/

Antarctic Bottom Water and North Atlantic Deep Water in CMIP6 models [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2021 Deep and bottom water formation are crucial components of the global ocean circulation, yet they were poorly represented in the previous generation of climate models. We here quantify biases in Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) and North Atlantic Deep Water (

Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 Antarctic coastal polynyas produce Dense Shelf Water, a precursor to Antarctic Bottom Waters that supply the global abyssal circulation. Future projections of Dense Shelf Water formation are hindered by unresolved small-scale atmosphere-sea ice-ocean ...

Freshening by glacial meltwater enhances melting of ice shelves and reduces formation of Antarctic Bottom Water. [PDF]
Sci Adv, 2018 Glacial meltwater stops bottom-water formation, allowing warm ocean waters to reach Antarctic ice shelves and drive rapid melting. Strong heat loss and brine release during sea ice formation in coastal polynyas act to cool and salinify waters on the ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 The additional water from the Antarctic ice sheet and ice shelves due to climate‐induced melt can impact ocean circulation and global climate. However, the major processes driving melt are not adequately represented in Coupled Model Intercomparison ...

Antarctic Bottom Water in the Vema Fracture Zone
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2023 A section of 46 CTD/LADCP stations along the Vema Fracture Zone was made for the first time with a repeat of the transverse section on the main sill (at 41° W) for the sixth time.

Accelerated freshening of Antarctic Bottom Water over the last decade in the Southern Indian Ocean. [PDF]
Sci Adv, 2017 Accelerated freshening reduced warming of Antarctic Bottom Water from 2007 to 2016 in the Australian-Antarctic Basin. Southern Ocean abyssal waters, in contact with the atmosphere at their formation sites around Antarctica, not only bring signals of a ...

Southern Ocean evidence for recurring West Antarctic Ice Sheet destabilization during Marine Isotope Stage 11 [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsMillennial-scale deoxygenation of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) in the Atlantic Southern Ocean during past interglacials was linked to West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) melt-driven suppression of dense water formation along the Antarctic margin.
