Abstract Coastal waters exhibit the highest and most dynamic dissolved CH4 concentrations in marine environments, but significant knowledge gaps on the distribution and emissions, particularly in the Southern Ocean, still exist. We quantified dissolved CH4 concentrations and sea–air fluxes in the coastal waters of Maxwell Bay, King George Island ...

An indicator of sea ice variability for the Antarctic marginal ice zone
Abstract. Remote-sensing records over the last 40 years have revealed large year-to-year global and regional variability in Antarctic sea ice extent. Sea ice area and extent are useful climatic indicators of large-scale variability, but they do not allow the quantification of regions of distinct variability in sea ice concentration (SIC).

Phytoplankton iron limitation in the Atlantic Southern Ocean driven by seasonal mixed‐layer dynamics
Abstract Phytoplankton blooms in the Southern Ocean (SO) are seasonally limited by light and micronutrients. As such, regional variations in iron supply from mixed‐layer winter entrainment are expected to impact the extent of seasonal iron limitation. Here, we determined seasonal iron limitation in the Atlantic SO by conducting iron addition incubation

Simulated Antarctic sea ice expansion reconciles climate model with observation
Observations reveal Antarctic sea ice expansion and Southern Ocean surface cooling trends from 1979 to 2014, whereas climate models mostly simulate the opposite. Here I use historical ensemble simulations with multiple climate models to show that sea-ice

The Influence of Snow on Antarctic Sea Ice
Snow cover affects the variability of the physical properties of sea ice. The snow’s unique thermal and optical properties govern the mass and energy fluxes in the sea ice system. They are important for sea ice evolution, energy exchanges between the ocean and the atmosphere, and light availability for ecosystems below the sea ice.

The variability in responses to environmental change between populations remains poorly quantified and understood. This shortcoming has major consequences, as variation and flexibility of life‐history traits between populations contribute to the estimation of the adaptive potential, which is necessary for predicting the responses of interconnected ...

ENSO’s impact on linear and nonlinear predictability of Antarctic sea ice
While the influence of ENSO on Antarctic sea ice variability is well-known, its role in sea ice predictability, both linear and nonlinear, remains unexplored.

Decadal transformations of antarctic sea ice modes
In light of ongoing global warming and the accelerated melting of Antarctic sea ice, this study aims to analyze the recent changes in the principal modes of Antarctic sea ice over the past decade, utilizing Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF) and ...

The various combinations of factors that form an interannual variability of ice coveren in the western, northeastern and southeastern parts of the Barents Sea were analysed for the period 1950 ̶ 2022. The co-phased cyclic fluctuations between the Barents
