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

open access: yesClimate 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,

The Ross Sea in a Sea of Change [PDF]

open access: yesOceanography, 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 ...

Unprecedented Summer Phytoplankton Bloom in the Ross Sea

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
High‐resolution glider sampling in the southwestern Ross Sea revealed an extensive phytoplankton bloom in austral summer 2022–2023 that persisted for over one month and extended through the upper 100 m of the water column. The temporal mean euphotic‐zone

Sea Ice Thickness in the Western Ross Sea [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
AbstractUsing airborne measurements, we provide a first direct glimpse of the sea ice thickness distribution in the western Ross Sea, Antarctica, where the distinguishing sea ice process is the regular occurrence of the Ross Sea, McMurdo Sound, and Terra Nova Bay polynyas.

Tintinnid ciliates (marine microzooplankton) of the Ross Sea

open access: yesPolar Research, 2022
For the Ross Sea, the only Marine Protected Area in Antarctica, available data on the tintinnid ciliates of the marine microzooplankton are mostly limited to nearshore waters near Terra Nova Bay or the vicinity of the McMurdo Sound.

Past ice-sheet behaviour: retreat scenarios and changing controls in the Ross Sea, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2016
Studying the history of ice-sheet behaviour in the Ross Sea, Antarctica's largest drainage basin can improve our understanding of patterns and controls on marine-based ice-sheet dynamics and provide constraints for numerical ice-sheet models.

Dissolved Trace Metals in the Ross Sea [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The dissolved (D) trace metals zinc (Zn), cadmium (Cd), cobalt (Co), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), titanium (Ti), lanthanum (La), yttrium (Y), and lead (Pb) were analyzed via ICPMS in samples from the Ross Sea obtained during a cruise between 20 December 2013 and 5 January 2014. The concentrations of DZn, DCd, DCo, DCu, DFe, DMn,

Carbonate saturation state of surface waters in the Ross Sea and Southern Ocean: controls and implications for the onset of aragonite undersaturation [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2015
Predicting when surface waters of the Ross Sea and Southern Ocean will become undersaturated with respect to biogenic carbonate minerals is challenging in part due to the lack of baseline high-resolution carbon system data. Here we present ~ 1700 surface

Seasonal variations in Circumpolar Deep Water intrusions into the Ross Sea continental shelf

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Intrusions of the warm and nutrient-rich Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) across the Ross Sea shelf break play an important role in providing heat for ice shelf basal melting and setting the physical environment for biochemical processes.
