Benefits of a landfast ice representation on simulated Antarctic sea ice and coastal polynya dynamics. Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2025 (Ref: 17437)
Authors:
Pirlet N.Fichefet T.Vancoppenolle M.Fraser A.D.Mathiot P.Rousset C.Barthélemy A.Barriat P.-Y.Pelletier C.Madec G.Kittel C.
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The Antarctic coastal marine region is a unique and highly complex environment, of which landfast ice and polynyas are key features, especially in the context of dense water formation. Current large-scale ocean-sea ice models used in climate studies simulate hardly any Antarctic landfast ice…

Major Australian-Antarctic Plate Reorganization at Hawaiian-Emperor Bend Time Science, 2007 (Ref: 13109)
Authors:
Whittaker J.M.Muller R.D.Leitchenkov G.Stagg H.Sdrolias M.Gaina C.Goncharov A.
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A marked bend in the Hawaiian-Emperor seamount chain supposedly resulted from a recent major … reorganization of the plate-mantle system there 50 million years ago. Although alternative mantledriven … and plate-shifting hypotheses have been proposed…

Southern Ocean overturning across streamlines in an eddying simulation of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current Ocean Science, 2007 (Ref: 13379)
Authors:
Treguier A.M.England M.H.Rintoul S.R.Madec G.Le Sommer J.Molines J-M.
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Abstract. An eddying global model is used to study the characteristics … of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) in a … streamline-following framework. Previous model-based estimates … of the meridional circulation were calculated using … zonal averages:
