Sea ice extent, concentration, and seasonality [in "State of the Climate in 2020"] Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2021 (Ref: 17033)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic sea ice plays a crucial role in the global climate system and is highly sensitive to climate change and variability (Walsh 1983; Liu et al. 2002; Roach et al. 2020). Sea ice seasonally covers a vast area of the high-latitude Southern Ocean each year…

Sea ice extent, concentration, and seasonality [in "State of the Climate in 2019"] Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2020 (Ref: 17035)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic sea ice plays a pivotal role in the global climate system. Forming a highly reflective, dynamic, and insulative blanket that varies seasonally in its areal coverage from ~3 × 106 km2 to ~19–20 × 106 km2, sea ice and its snow cover strongly modifies ocean…

Sea ice extent, concentration, and seasonality [in "State of the Climate in 2018"] Bulletin of American Meteorological Society, 2019 (Ref: 16232)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic sea ice plays a pivotal role in the global climate system. Forming a highly-dynamic reflective and insulative blanket that varies seasonally from ~3 to ~20 × 106 km2, sea ice and its snow cover strongly modify ocean–atmosphere fluxes and interaction processes (Bourassa et al. 2013).

Decadal-scale variability in the meridional circulation of Upper Circumpolar Deep Water and its impact on primary production in the Southern Ocean. PhD Thesis, Griffith University, Australia, 2011 (Ref: 14498)
Authors:
Category 3: Thesis, higher degree

The Southern Ocean is vitally important in understanding climate change, both regionally and globally, due to factors such as the presence of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, seasonal sea-ice and strong Southern Hemisphere westerly winds. Also, the upper branch of the Circumpolar Deep Water (UCDW)…

DNA-based diet estimation techniques: From toothed whales to Antarctic fish and snails. Australian Marine Sciences Association 48th Annual Conference, 3-7 July 2011, 2011 (Ref: 14944)
Category 3: Abstract

For many species trophic interactions are difficult to study because of their cryptic habits and/or the unfavourable characteristics of samples for traditional diet techniques. DNA-based diet techniques are sensitive…

Decadal-scale variability in the meridional circulation of Southern Ocean Upper Circumpolar Deep Water AGU Western Pacific Geophysics Meeting, Cairns, August 2008, 2008 (Ref: 13743)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

The upwelling of iron-rich Upper Circumpolar Deep Water (UCDW) is thought to be critical for primary production in the Southern Ocean, since iron has been shown to be a limiting factor in what is otherwise a high nutrient region.

Pseudogenes and DNA-based diet analyses: a cautionary tale from a relatively well sampled predator-prey system Bulletin of Entomological Research, 2008 (Ref: 13350)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Mitochondrial ribosomal DNA is commonly used in DNA-based dietary … analyses. In such studies, these sequences are generally assumed to be the … only version present in DNA of the organism of interest. However…

ä18O seasonality of planktonic foraminifera from Southern Ocean sediment traps: Latitudinal gradients and implications for paleoclimate reconstructions. Marine Micropaleontology, 2005 (Ref: 12615)
Authors:
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The oxygen isotopic record obtained from Globigerina bulloides, Globorotalia inflata, and Neogloboquadrina pachyderma … (s.) was analysed for 5 sediment traps moored in the Southern Ocean and Southwest Pacific. The traps extend from Subtropical … to the Polar Frontal environments…
