The Antarctic Slope Current in a changing climate
Abstract The Antarctic Slope Current (ASC) is a coherent circulation feature that rings the
Antarctic continental shelf and regulates the flow of water toward the Antarctic coastline. The …

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 …
