1. Data initiatives for ocean-driven melt of Antarctic ice shelves

   Ocean-driven melt of Antarctic ice shelves is an important control on mass loss from the ice sheet, but is complex to study due to significant variability in melt rates both […]

3. Basal mass balance and prevalence of ice tongues in the Western ross sea

   Ice tongues at the fringes of the Antarctic ice sheet lose mass primarily through both basal melting and calving. They are sensitive to ocean conditions which can weaken the ice […]

4. Genomics of Secondarily Temperate Adaptation in the Only Non-Antarctic Icefish

   White-blooded Antarctic icefishes, a family within the adaptive radiation of Antarctic notothenioid fishes, are an example of extreme biological specialization to both the chronic cold of the Southern Ocean and […]

5. Projected West Antarctic Ocean Warming Caused by an Expansion of the Ross Gyre

   We use United Kingdom Earth System Model simulations from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 6 to analyze the Ross Gyre (RG) dynamics during the historical 1850–2014 period and under two […]

6. Sea level rise from West Antarctic mass loss significantly modified by large snowfall anomalies

   Mass loss from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet is dominated by glaciers draining into the Amundsen Sea Embayment (ASE), yet the impact of anomalous precipitation on the mass balance of […]

7. Credit Where Credit is Due: Authorship of Open Ocean Data Workshop Report

   Schmidt Ocean Institute, in partnership with The Ditchley Foundation, hosted Credit where credit is due: Authorship of open ocean data at Ditchley Park, in Chipping Norton, UK, on October 6-7, […]

8. Visual Stratigraphy-Based Age Scale Developed for the Shallow Mount Siple Firn Core, Antarctica

   Here we present a case study for using visual stratigraphy to date a shallow firn core from coastal West Antarctica. The Mount Siple ice core has the potential to reconstruct […]

9. The Palmer ice core as a candidate Global boundary Stratotype Section and Point for the Anthropocene series

   The remote Antarctic continent, distant from human industrial activity, should be one of the last places on Earth to capture Anthropogenic change. Hence, stratigraphic evidence of pollution and nuclear activity […]

10. Identifying Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems: An image-based vulnerability index for the Southern Ocean seafloor

    A significant proportion of Southern Ocean seafloor biodiversity is thought to be associated with fragile, slow growing, long-lived, and habitat-forming taxa. Minimizing adverse impact to these so-called vulnerable marine ecosystems […]

11. How predictable are mass extinction events?

    Many modern extinction drivers are shared with past mass extinction events, such as rapid climate warming, habitat loss, pollution and invasive species. This commonality presents a key question: can the […]

12. Characterizing 4 decades of accelerated glacial mass loss in the west Nyainqentanglha Range of the Tibetan Plateau

    Glacier retreat is altering the water regime of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) as the region’s climate changes, but there remain substantial gaps in our knowledge of recent glacier loss in […]
