Distribution of total alkalinity and pH in the Ross Sea (Antarctica) waters during austral summer 2008 [PDF]

open access: yesPolar 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

open access: yesRemote 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 ...

Composition and distribution of the peracarid crustacean fauna along a latitudinal transect off Victoria Land (Ross Sea, Antarctica) with special emphasis on the Cumacea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The following study was the first to describe composition and structure of the peracarid fauna systematically along a latitudinal transect off Victoria Land (Ross Sea, Antarctica).

Mechanisms and impacts of anomalous high-salinity shelf water formation in the Ross Sea [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
High-salinity shelf water (HSSW) acts as a precursor to the Antarctic Bottom Water and plays a critical role in regulating the global ocean circulation system.

Extent of the Ross Orogen in Antarctica: new data from DSDP 270 and Iselin Bank [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Ross Sea is bordered by the Late Precambrian–Cambrian Ross–Delamerian Orogen of East Antarctica and the more Pacific-ward Ordovician–Silurian Lachlan–Tuhua–Robertson Bay–Swanson Orogen.

Anthropogenic carbon distribution in the Ross Sea, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesAntarctic Science, 2007
AbstractThe Ross Sea is an area of dense water formation within the Southern Ocean, hence it potentially plays an important role for anthropogenic CO2 sequestration. In order to estimate the penetration of anthropogenic carbon in the Ross Sea from total inorganic carbon (TCO2) measurements carried out in 2002–03 Antarctic Italian Expedition, we applied

Glacial history of Pyramid Trough, southern McMurdo Sound, Antarctica: Constraints on Koettlitz Glacier during the last glacial maximum and termination

open access: yesQuaternary Science Advances, 2023
Reconstructions of past glacier extent and timing afford perspective on the efficacy of mechanisms thought to control ice-sheet fluctuations. Here, we present data concerning the interactions between the Antarctic Ice Sheet and a local glacier (Koettlitz

Dissolved oxygen dynamics during a phytoplankton bloom in the Ross Sea polynya [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The Ross Sea polynya is one of the most productive regions in the Southern Ocean. However, limited access and high spatio-temporal variability of physical and biological processes limit the use of conventional oceanographic methods to measure early ...

Physical and biological properties of early winter Antarctic sea ice in the Ross Sea

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2020
This work presents the results of physical and biological investigations at 27 biogeochemical stations of early winter sea ice in the Ross Sea during the 2017 PIPERS cruise. Only two similar cruises occurred in the past, in 1995 and 1998.

Multianalytical provenance analysis of Eastern Ross Sea LGM till sediments (Antarctica): Petrography, geochronology, and thermochronology detrital data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In order to reveal provenance of detrital sediments supplied by West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS), 19 glaciomarine cores of Last Glacial Maximum age were analyzed from Eastern Ross Sea and Sulzberger Bay.
