The Southern Ocean waters exchange freshwater, nutrients, carbon, heat, and salt to the Equator and influence the global carbon budget. Therefore, it is essential to understand the variations in Southern Ocean circulation during the last deglacial period

A twenty-first century structural change in Antarctica’s sea ice system
From 1979 to 2016, total Antarctic sea ice extent experienced a positive trend with record winter maxima in 2012 and 2014. Record summer minima followed within the period 2017-2024, raising the possibility that the Antarctic sea ice system might be ...

Abstract Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) is a widely considered marine CO2 removal method. Ocean alkalinity enhancement works by converting seawater CO2 into HCO3−$$ {\mathrm{HCO}}_3^{-} $$ and CO32−$$ {\mathrm{CO}}_3^{2-} $$ by electrochemical methods or the addition of alkaline minerals.

Combustion of available fossil-fuel resources sufficient to eliminate the Antarctic Ice Sheet [PDF]
The Antarctic Ice Sheet stores water equivalent to 58 m in global sea-level rise. We show in simulations using the Parallel Ice Sheet Model that burning the currently attainable fossil fuel resources is sufficient to eliminate the ice sheet.

Nutrient‐dependent thermal response in growth and stoichiometry of Antarctic phytoplankton
Abstract Rising temperatures and altered nutrient supply are expected to influence future phytoplankton thermal performance and community dynamics. The thermal response of phytoplankton has been shown to be influenced by nutrient availability, but information is still limited, particularly for the coastal Southern Ocean.

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

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 ...

Bio-inspired design of ice-retardant devices based on benthic marine invertebrates: the effect of surface texture [PDF]
Growth of ice on surfaces poses a challenge for both organisms and for devices that come into contact with liquids below the freezing point. Resistance of some organisms to ice formation and growth, either in subtidal environments (e.g. Antarctic anchor ice), or in environments with moisture and cold air (e.g.
