Holocene sea ice variability driven by wind and polynya efficiency in the Ross Sea. [PDF]
The causes of the recent increase in Antarctic sea ice extent, characterised by large regional contrasts and decadal variations, remain unclear. In the Ross Sea, where such a sea ice increase is reported, 50% of the sea ice is produced within wind ...

Increase of the Antarctic Sea Ice Extent is highly significant only in the Ross Sea. [PDF]
In the context of global warming, the question of why Antarctic sea ice extent (SIE) has increased is one of the most fundamental unsolved mysteries.

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

Vertical ocean heat redistribution sustaining sea-ice concentration trends in the Ross Sea. [PDF]
Several processes have been hypothesized to explain the slight overall expansion of Antarctic sea ice over the satellite observation era, including externally forced changes in local winds or in the Southern Ocean’s hydrological cycle, as well as ...

Tintinnid ciliates (marine microzooplankton) of the Ross Sea
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.
