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

, 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

Arctic, 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]

, 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

Reaching consensus for conserving the global commons: The case of the Ross Sea, Antarctica

Conservation Letters, 2019
In October 2016, the international community made history by adopting the world's largest marine protected area in the Ross Sea, Antarctica—by consensus. Achieving this feat required trade‐offs and compromise among the 24‐Member States (plus the European

Modeling the effect of Ross Ice Shelf melting on the Southern Ocean in quasi-equilibrium [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2018
To study the influence of basal melting of the Ross Ice Shelf (BMRIS) on the Southern Ocean (ocean southward of 35° S) in quasi-equilibrium, numerical experiments with and without the BMRIS effect were performed using a global ocean–sea ice–ice

Is It the Same Every Summer for the Euphausiids of the Ross Sea?

Diversity, 2022
The pelagic ecosystem in the Ross Sea has one central component that is very important for energy exchanges between upper and lower trophic levels: the Middle Trophic Level.

Unprecedented springtime retreat of Antarctic sea ice in 2016 [PDF]

, 2017
During austral spring 2016 Antarctic sea ice extent (SIE) decreased at a record rate of 75 x 10(3) km(2) d(-1), which was 46% faster than the mean rate and 18% faster than in any previous spring season during the satellite era.

Frazil ice growth and production during katabatic wind events in the Ross Sea, Antarctica

The Cryosphere, 2019
. Katabatic winds in coastal polynyas expose the ocean to extreme heat loss, causing intense sea ice production and dense water formation around Antarctica throughout autumn and winter.

Evolution of the Seasonal Surface Mixed Layer of the Ross Sea, Antarctica, Observed With Autonomous Profiling Floats

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2019
Oceanographic conditions on the continental shelf of the Ross Sea, Antarctica, affect sea ice production, Antarctic Bottom Water formation, mass loss from the Ross Ice Shelf, and ecosystems.
