The 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

Changes in the ventilation of the southern oceans [PDF]
Changes in the ventilation of the southern oceans over the past few decades are examined using ocean measurements of CFC-12 and model simulations. Analysis of CFC-12 measurements made between the late 1980s and late 2000s reveal large-scale coherent changes in the ventilation, with a decrease in the age of subtropical Subantarctic Mode Waters (SAMW ...

On the role of the Southern Ocean in the global carbon cycle and atmospheric CO2 change
Uncertainty about the causes of glacial-interglacial CO2 variations demonstrates our incomplete grasp of fundamental processes that govern our climate and thus one of the foremost problems in palaeoceanography and Earth System Science regards the ...

Forcing of anthropogenic aerosols on temperature trends of the sub-thermocline southern Indian Ocean [PDF]
In the late twentieth century, the sub-thermocline waters of the southern tropical and subtropical Indian Ocean experienced a sharp cooling. This cooling has been previously attributed to an anthropogenic aerosol-induced strengthening of the global ocean

Microplastics in the Southern Ocean
The Southern Ocean has the lowest densities of floating macroplastic litter in the world. It was thought that the region was relatively free of microplastic contamination.

As a critical region regulating air-sea gas exchanges, the polar Southern Ocean has important implications for deglacial atmospheric CO2 rises. However, proxy data evidence is sparse to evaluate the respective roles of Southern Ocean biological and ...
