1. Iceberg Grounding Enhances the Release of Freshwater on the Antarctic Continental Shelf

   The importance of Antarctic iceberg meltwater for the Southern Ocean has been a strong incentive to include Lagrangian icebergs in ocean and climate models. However, the modeled iceberg thickness has […]

2. Extremely poleward shift of Antarctic Circumpolar Current by eccentricity during the Last Interglacial

   The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) exerts substantial control on the physical, chemical, and biological properties of the Southern Ocean, playing a key role in modulating the global carbon cycle and […]

3. Enhanced deep Southern Ocean stratification during the lukewarm interglacials

   Between ~800 and 430 thousand years ago lukewarm interglacials were characterized by lower atmospheric CO2 levels and colder Antarctic temperatures than subsequent interglacials. The Southern Ocean is thought to have […]

4. Ice shelf calving due to shear stresses: observing the response of Brunt Ice Shelf and Halloween Crack to iceberg calving using ICESat-2 laser altimetry, satellite imagery, and ice flow models

   Full-thickness ice shelf fractures, known as rifts, create tabular icebergs that can reduce ice shelf extent and thereby jeopardize overall marine ice sheet stability. Low confidence in the scientific understanding […]

5. Occurrence Rates and Variability of Whistler‐Mode Waves in the Plasma Trough

   Numerical models of energetic electron behavior in the outer radiation belt require descriptions of the wave‐particle interactions across the inner magnetosphere. Quasilinear diffusion coefficients describe gyro‐resonant wave‐particle interactions over large […]

6. Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Sub-Antarctic Seabirds: Insights into Long-Range Transport and Bioaccumulation of Legacy and Replacement Chemicals

   Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are widespread environmental pollutants that can bioaccumulate in biota and cause a variety of adverse effects. Seabirds are useful bioindicators of pollutants in marine food […]

7. Witnessing the transition from cold to temperate firn on Austfonna ice cap, Svalbard, through observations and model simulations

   Refreezing is a critical component of the mass balance of glaciers in Svalbard, yet the processes and changes under a warming climate are not fully understood. Here, we investigate changes […]

8. Multi-frequency altimetry snow depth estimates over heterogeneous snow-covered Antarctic summer sea ice – Part 1: C∕S-, Ku-, and Ka-band airborne observations

   The recent alignment of CryoSat-2 to maximise orbital coincidence with the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) over the Southern Ocean and Antarctica in July 2022, known as the […]

9. Precipitation prediction over the upper Indus Basin from large-scale circulation patterns using Gaussian processes

   Water resources from the Indus Basin sustain over 270 million people. However, water security in this region is threatened by climate change. This is especially the case for the upper […]

10. Talking About the Weather: The Feasibility of Using Very High-Resolution Optical Satellite Imagery to Monitor Live and Stranded Cetaceans Around the UK and UK Overseas Territories

    Monitoring live and stranded cetaceans can be expensive and logistically challenging, resulting in knowledge gaps. Very high-resolution (VHR) optical satellites are considered a potential solution to addressing some of these […]

11. Different responses of cold-air outbreak clouds to aerosol and ice production depending on cloud temperature

    Aerosol–cloud interactions and ice production processes are important factors that influence mixed-phase cold-air outbreak (CAO) clouds and their contribution to cloud-phase feedback. Recent case studies of CAO events suggest that […]

12. Towards Bedmap Himalayas: a new airborne glacier thickness survey in Khumbu Himal, Nepal

    Mountain glaciers provide an important service in sustaining river flows for large populations downstream of High Mountain Asia (HMA) but these glaciers are retreating and the future of this water […]
