Interannual Variability of Ocean Heat Content in the Eastern Amundsen Sea Controlled by Wind Geophysical Research Letters, 2025 (Ref: 17476)
Authors:
Rieke O.Spence P.Nikurashin M.Peña-Molino B.Herraiz-Borreguero L.Auger M.
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Mass loss of the Antarctic ice sheet is largest in the Amundsen Sea Embayment, West Antarctica, due to basal melting by warm modified Circumpolar Deep Water (mCDW).

Impacts of Antarctic summer sea-ice extremes PNAS Nexus, 2025 (Ref: 17363)
Authors:
Doddridge E.W.Hobbs W.R.Auger M.Boyd P.W.Chua S.M.T.Cook S.Corney S.Emmerson L.Fraser A.D.Heil P.Kelly N.Lannuzel D.Liniger G.Massom R.A.Meyer A.Reid P.Southwell C.Spence P.Steketee A.Swaddling K.M.Teder N.Wienecke B.Wongpan P.Yamazaki K.
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic sea ice plays many crucial roles in the physical environments and ecosystems of Antarctica and the Southern Ocean. In this study, we synthesize the physical, biogeochemical, ecosystem, and societal impacts of summers with extreme low Antarctic sea-ice coverage.

The variability of Antarctic dense water overflows can be observed from space Communications, Earth and Environment, 2025 (Ref: 17347)
Authors:
Auger M.Spence P.Morrison A.K.Naveira Garabato A.Silvano A.
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Around the margins of Antarctica, dense waters formed on the continental shelf are exported to oceanic depths. This overflow of dense waters to the abyss ventilates the ocean, and is vital to the global overturning circulation.

Warming beneath an East Antarctic ice shelf due to increased subpolar westerlies and reduced sea ice. Nature Geoscience, 2023 (Ref: 17114)
Authors:
Lauber J.Hattermann T.de Steur L.Darelius E.Auger M.Nost O.A.Moholdt G.
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Understanding how climate change influences ocean-driven melting of the Antarctic ice shelves is one of the greatest challenges for projecting future sea level rise. The East Antarctic ice shelf cavities host cold water masses that limit melting…
