Distribution and composition of macrobenthic communities along a Victoria-Land Transect (Ross Sea, Antarctica) [PDF]
The Victoria-Land Transect project onboard the Italian research vessel ‘‘Italica’’ in February 2004, was a large-scale attempt to obtain benthic samples of smaller macrozoobenthic specimens systematically along a latitudinal and a depth transect along ...

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

Physical and biological controls on anthropogenic CO2 sink of the Ross Sea
The Antarctic continental shelf is a significant sink for anthropogenic CO2 (Cant) due to its cold waters, high primary productivity, and unique circulation that allows it to store large amounts of organic and inorganic carbon into the deep ocean ...

Decadal trends in air‐sea CO2 exchange in the Ross Sea (Antarctica)
Highly productive Antarctic shelf systems, like the Ross Sea, play important roles in regional carbon budgets, but the drivers of local variations are poorly quantified.

Dissolved iron speciation and first characterization of organic ligands in the eastern Ross Sea
Iron (Fe) is the most important trace element in the ocean ecosystem, being a micronutrient required for phytoplankton growth and thus involved in marine primary productivity and carbon export. The dissolved Fe (dFe) is the most bioavailable fraction and

The Ross Sea and Amundsen Sea Ice–Sea Model (RAISE v1.0): a high-resolution ocean–sea ice–ice shelf coupling model for simulating the Dense Shelf Water and Antarctic Bottom Water in the Ross Sea, Antarctica [PDF]
The Ross Sea in the Southern Ocean is a key region for the formation of the Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) that supplies the lower limb of the global overturning circulation and contributes to 20 %–40 % of the total AABW production.
