High‐resolution multibeam sonar bathymetry of the deepest place in each ocean
Over the course of 10 months, the global Five Deeps Expedition (2018–2019) mapped ~550,000 km2 of seafloor of which 61% comprised new coverage over areas never before surveyed and ~30% was acquired from some of the ocean's deepest trenches and fracture ...

Light and temperature records of the seawater associated with southern elephant seal dives during foraging trips in South Atlantic and Pacific Oceans [PDF]
The dataset comprises geolocalised records of dive and surface interval durations, light level and temperature of the seawater during the post-resting and post-moulting tracks of 13 immature southern elephant seals, Mirounga leonina.

The Southern Ocean comprises 25% of the global ocean surface area, accounts for nearly half of the total carbon sink of the global oceans, and is a place that significantly reduces the impacts of anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Due to the sparsity of

The Southern Ocean waters exchange freshwater, nutrients, carbon, heat, and salt to the Equator and influence the global carbon budget. Therefore, it is essential to understand the variations in Southern Ocean circulation during the last deglacial period

The Southern Ocean Observing System [PDF]
The Southern Ocean includes the only latitude band where the ocean circles the earth unobstructed by continental boundaries. This accident of geography has profound consequences for global ocean circulation, biogeochemical cycles, and climate.

Previous studies have suggested that the global ocean density stratification below ∼3000 m is approximately set by its direct connection to the Southern Ocean surface density, which in turn is constrained by the atmosphere.

What fraction of the Pacific and Indian oceans' deep water is formed in the Southern Ocean? [PDF]
In this contribution we explore constraints on the fractions of deep water present in the Indian and Pacific oceans which originated in the northern Atlantic and in the Southern Ocean.

Basin-scale tracer replacement timescales in a one-degree global OGCM
This study investigates basin-scale tracer replacement timescales of the two polar oceans and the Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans using a one-degree global ocean-sea ice model that represents oceans under the largest Antarctic ice shelves, the ...

Mechanisms of Interannual Variability of Ocean Bottom Pressure in the Southern Indian Ocean
The study of ocean bottom pressure (OBP) helps to understand the changes in the sea level budget and ocean deep circulation. In this study, the characteristics and mechanisms of interannual OBP variability in the Southern Indian Ocean are examined using ...
