Bottom water formation and polynyas in Adelie Land, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Antarctic Bottom Water is the coldest and densest water found in the global ocean. It spreads into all the major ocean basins, carrying the cold water towards the equatorial regions, and is a central component of the global thermo-haline circulation ...

Antarctic Bottom Water and North Atlantic Deep Water in CMIP6 models

open access: yesOcean Science (OS), 2020
. 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.

Changes in global ocean bottom properties and volume transports in CMIP5 models under climate change scenarios [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Changes in bottom temperature, salinity and density in the global ocean by 2100 for CMIP5 climate models are investigated for the climate change scenarios RCP4.5 and RCP8.5.

Multidecadal warming of Antarctic waters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Decadal trends in the properties of seawater adjacent to Antarctica are poorly known, and the mechanisms responsible for such changes are uncertain. Antarctic ice sheet mass loss is largely driven by ice shelf basal melt, which is influenced by ocean-ice

Antarctic climate, Southern Ocean circulation patterns, and deep water formation during the Eocene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We assess early-to-middle Eocene seawater neodymium (Nd) isotope records from seven Southern Ocean deep-sea drill sites to evaluate the role of Southern Ocean circulation in long-term Cenozoic climate change.

On the Linkage between Antarctic Surface Water Stratification and Global Deep-Water Temperature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The suggestion is advanced that the remarkably low static stability of Antarctic surface waters may arise from a feedback loop involving global deep-water temperatures.

On spreading of Antarctic Bottom Water in fracture zones of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at 7–8°N

open access: yesRussian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2022
A Data-Interpolating Variational Analysis in n-dimensions was used to describe a potential temperature distribution in the bottom layer of the fracture zones of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at 7–8°N.

Southern Ocean bottom water characteristics in CMIP5 models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Southern Ocean deep water properties and formation processes in climate models are indicative of their capability to simulate future climate, heat and carbon uptake, and sea level rise.

A seasonal cycle in the export of bottom water from the Weddell Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dense water formed over the Antarctic continental shelf rapidly descends into the deep ocean where it spreads throughout the global ocean as Antarctic Bottom Water1, 2.

Impact of sea-ice formation on the properties of Antarctic bottom water [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
It is generally accepted that fresh-water fluxes due to ice accretion or melting profoundly influence the formation of Antarctic bottom water (AABW). This is investigated by means of a global, three-dimensional ice-ocean model.
