Enhanced deep Southern Ocean stratification during the lukewarm interglacials [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsBetween ~800 and 430 thousand years ago lukewarm interglacials were characterized by lower atmospheric CO2 levels and colder Antarctic temperatures than subsequent interglacials. The Southern Ocean is thought to have played a crucial role, but associated

The greater role of Southern Ocean warming compared to Arctic Ocean warming in shifting future tropical rainfall patterns [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsThe recent rapid decline in Antarctic sea ice highlights the need to understand whether rising Southern Ocean temperatures have an influence on global climate. While Arctic warming has been extensively studied, the importance of Southern Ocean warming is
