Abstract The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) is out of equilibrium with the current anthropogenic‐
enhanced climate forcing. Paleoenvironmental records and ice sheet models reveal that the …

Climate change will alter marine ecosystems; however, the complexity of the food webs,
combined with chronic undersampling, constrains efforts to predict their future and to …

Although Antarctic sea ice is undergoing a slight increase in overall extent, major regional
changes are occurring in its spatio-temporal characteristics (most notably in sea ice …

The Scotia Sea ecosystem is a major component of the circumpolar Southern Ocean system,
where productivity and predator demand for prey are high. The eastward-flowing Antarctic …

Abstract The west Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) region has undergone significant changes in
temperature and seasonal ice dynamics since the mid-twentieth century, with strong impacts …

Abstract Abstract Investigations of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) over the last 40 years
have examined almost every aspect of the biology of these ecologically important animals …

The West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) is a highly productive marine ecosystem where

This study focuses on 12 years of physical oceanography data, collected during the Palmer,
Antarctica, Long-Term Ecological Research program (PAL LTER) over the continental …

Transport of relatively warm, nutrient-rich Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) onto continental
shelves around Antarctica has important effects on physical and biological processes …

The Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) is a biologically rich area supporting large standing
stocks of krill and top predators (including whales, seals and seabirds). Physical forcing …
