The potential ice core proxies of variability in oceanic and atmospheric conditions over the Ross Sea were evaluated. This study examined sea salt sodium (ss–Na+) and biogenic sulfur (methanesulfonate, MS–) records, covering 23 years between 1990 and ...

Atmospheric forcing of sea ice anomalies in the Ross Sea polynya region [PDF]
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.

Climatology and decadal variability of the Ross Sea shelf waters
The World Ocean Database 2001 data located in the Ross Sea (named WOD01 and containing data in this region since 1928) are merged with recent data collected by the Italian expeditions (CLIMA dataset) in the period November 1994-February 2004 in the same ...

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]
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).

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

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