Decadal trends in air‐sea CO2 exchange in the Ross Sea (Antarctica) [PDF]

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016
Highly productive Antarctic shelf systems, like the Ross Sea, play important roles in regional carbon budgets, but the drivers of local variations are poorly quantified.

The role of tides in bottom water export from the western Ross Sea [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2021
Approximately 25% of Antarctic Bottom Water has its origin as dense water exiting the western Ross Sea, but little is known about what controls the release of dense water plumes from the Drygalski Trough.

The Ross Sea Dipole – temperature, snow accumulation and sea ice variability in the Ross Sea region, Antarctica, over the past 2700 years [PDF]

Climate of the Past, 2018
High-resolution, well-dated climate archives provide an opportunity to investigate the dynamic interactions of climate patterns relevant for future projections. Here, we present data from a new, annually dated ice core record from the eastern Ross Sea,

Opposing oceanic and atmospheric ENSO influences on the Ross Sea Region, Antarctica [PDF]

Advances in Geosciences, 2006
Here we discuss the cause and effect of opposing atmospheric and oceanic ENSO forcings in the Ross Sea, that lead to a net warming in the eastern Ross Sea and a net cooling in the western Ross Sea during El Niño years.

The Ross Sea in a Sea of Change [PDF]

Oceanography, 2012
The Ross Sea, the most productive region in the Antarctic, reaches farther south than any body of water in the world. While its food web is relatively intact, its oceanography, biogeochemistry, and sea ice coverage have been changing dramatically, and ...

Springtime winds drive Ross Sea ice variability and change in the following autumn [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2017
Antarctic sea ice extent continues to increase, with autumn sea ice advances in the western Ross Sea particularly anomalous. Here, based on analysis of independent datasets, the authors show that springtime zonal winds in the high latitude South Pacific ...

Evidence for large-scale climate forcing of dense shelf water variability in the Ross Sea [PDF]

Nature Communications
Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW), which supplies the lower limb of the thermohaline circulation, originates from dense shelf water (DSW) forming in Antarctic polynyas.

Rebound of shelf water salinity in the Ross Sea [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2019
Ross Sea Bottom Water, a major source of Antarctic Bottom Water, has experienced significant freshening in recent decades. Here the authors use 23 years of summer measurements to document temporal variability in the salinity of the Ross Sea High Salinity

Cold call: the acoustic repertoire of Ross Sea killer whales (Orcinus orca, Type C) in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2020
Killer whales (Orcinus orca) are top marine predators occurring globally. In Antarctic waters, five ecotypes have been described, with Type C being the smallest form of killer whale known.
