Carbonate system data tracing freshwater inflow into the Ross Sea through the eastern gate and along the Ross Ice Shelf (Antarctica)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The eastern Ross Sea is a key area to understand the role of the Amundsen Sea inflow of freshwater that can influence the Ross Sea water properties and salt budget.

Ice core reconstruction of sea ice change in the Amundsen-Ross Seas since 1702 A.D. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Antarctic sea ice has been increasing in recent decades, but with strong regional differences in the expression of sea ice change. Declining sea ice in the Bellingshausen Sea since 1979 (the satellite era) has been linked to the observed warming on the ...

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]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development
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.

Antarctic sea ice increase consistent with intrinsic variability of the Amundsen Sea Low [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate the relationship between atmospheric circulation variability and the recent trends in Antarctic sea ice extent (SIE) using Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) atmospheric data, ECMWF Interim reanalysis fields and passive ...

Isotopic signature of massive, buried ice in eastern Taylor Valley, Antarctica: Implications for its origin

open access: yesArctic, Antarctic, and Alpine Research, 2022
The coastal regions of the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica, contain deposits of the Ross Sea Drift, sedimentary material left from the Ross Sea ice sheet from the advance of the West Antarctic ice sheet during the Last Glacial Maximum.

Factors controlling the distribution of diatoms and Phaeocystis in the Ross Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The spatial and temporal distributions of phytoplankton pigments were investigated in the western and south central Ross Sea during austral spring 1994 and summer 1990. Large gradients in biomass and phytoplankton community composition were observed both

A Summary of United States Research and Monitoring in Support of the Ross Sea Region Marine Protected Area

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Due to the remarkable ecological value of the Ross Sea, the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) adopted a large-scale Ross Sea region marine protected area (RSRMPA) in 2016.

Long-term and recent changes in sea level in the Falkland Islands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Mean sea level measurements made at Port Louis in the Falkland Islands in 1981-2, 1984 and 2009, together with values from the nearby permanent tide gauge at Port Stanley, have been compared to measurements made at Port Louis in 1842 by James Clark Ross.
