Key questions in marine megafauna movement ecology
It is a golden age for animal movement studies and so an opportune time to assess priorities
for future work. We assembled 40 experts to identify key questions in this field, focussing on …

A review of recent changes in Southern Ocean sea ice, their drivers and forcings
Over the past 37 years, satellite records show an increase in Antarctic sea ice cover that is
most pronounced in the period of sea ice growth. This trend is dominated by increased sea …

Summertime increases in upper-ocean stratification and mixed-layer depth
The surface mixed layer of the world ocean regulates global climate by controlling heat and
carbon exchange between the atmosphere and the oceanic interior,–. The mixed layer also …

Freshening by glacial meltwater enhances melting of ice shelves and reduces formation of Antarctic Bottom Water
Strong heat loss and brine release during sea ice formation in coastal polynyas act to cool
and salinify waters on the Antarctic continental shelf. Polynya activity thus both limits the …

The suppression of Antarctic bottom water formation by melting ice shelves in Prydz Bay
A fourth production region for the globally important Antarctic bottom water has been
attributed to dense shelf water formation in the Cape Darnley Polynya, adjoining Prydz Bay …
