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

Atmospheric forcing of sea ice anomalies in the Ross Sea polynya region [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2017 We investigate the impacts of strong wind events on the sea ice concentration within the Ross Sea polynya (RSP), which may have consequences on sea ice formation.

Distribution of total alkalinity and pH in the Ross Sea (Antarctica) waters during austral summer 2008 [PDF]
Polar Research, 2014 Measurements of total alkalinity (AT) and pH were made in the Ross Sea in January–February 2008 in order to characterize the carbonate system in the Ross Sea and to evaluate the variability associated with different water masses. The main water masses of

Weekly Mapping of Sea Ice Freeboard in the Ross Sea from ICESat-2
Remote Sensing, 2021 NASA’s ICESat-2 has been providing sea ice freeboard measurements across the polar regions since October 2018. In spite of the outstanding spatial resolution and precision of ICESat-2, the spatial sparsity of the data can be a critical issue for sea ice ...
