Meridional asymmetry in the evolution of the Southern Ocean carbon sink over the 21st century in a high-resolution model Frontiers in Marine Science: Marine Biogeochemistry, 2025 (Ref: 17464)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The Southern Ocean plays a key role in removing anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere, accounting for a quarter of the global ocean uptake during the Anthropocene period. Here we show, using a high-resolution ocean model under high-emission forcing (RCP8.5)…

The Southern Ocean Time Series: a climatological view of hydrography, biogeochemistry, phytoplankton community composition, and carbon export in the Subantarctic Zone Ocean Science, 2025 (Ref: 17450)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The Southern Ocean Time Series (SOTS) provides highly temporally resolved observations of the physical, chemical, and biological variability in the upper ocean, as well as the export of particulate organic and inorganic carbon to the ocean interior, in the subantarctic region south of Australia.

Optimization of the World Ocean Model of Biogeochemistry and Trophic dynamics (WOMBAT) using surrogate machine learning methods, Biogeosciences, 2025 (Ref: 17429)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The introduction of new processes in biogeochemical models brings new model parameters that must be set. Optimization of the model parameters is crucial to ensure that model performance is based on process representation (i.e., functional forms) rather than poor choices of input parameter values.

Status of ocean observations in the Indian Sector of the Southern Ocean Elementa, 2025 (Ref: 17359)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

One of the largest sectors of the Southern Ocean is the Indian Sector, which plays an important role in regulating the Earth's climate and supports a diverse ecosystem. To understand how climate change impacts the environment in this sector…

Coupling Between the Subantarctic Seasonal Iron Cycle and Productivity at the Southern Ocean Time Series (SOTS) AGU Advances, 2025 (Ref: 17312)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

In the Subantarctic Southern Ocean, primary productivity is predominantly limited by seasonal changes in light and iron (Fe) availability, shaping the phytoplankton community and impacting the magnitude of the biological carbon pump. However, quantifying the seasonal iron cycle is challenging…

Observed water-mass characteristics and circulation off Prydz Bay, East Antarctica. Frontiers in Marine Science, 2024 (Ref: 17153)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Circulation and water masses in the greater Prydz Bay region were surveyed in the austral summer 2021 (January-March) during the ‘Trends in Euphausiids off Mawson, Predators and Oceanography’ (TEMPO) experiment, and are described in this paper.

Drivers of Air-Sea CO2 Flux in the Subantarctic Zone Revealed by Time Series Observations. Global Biogeochemical Cycles, 2024 (Ref: 17100)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The subantarctic zone is an important region in the Southern Ocean with respect to its influence on air-sea CO2 exchange and the global ocean carbon cycle. However, understanding of the magnitude and drivers of the flux are still being refined.

Using seabird and whale distribution models to estimate spatial consumption of krill to inform fishery management Ecosphere, 2022 (Ref: 16500)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Ecosystem dynamics at the northwest Antarctic Peninsula are driven by interactions between physical and biological processes. For example, baleen whale populations are recovering from commercial harvesting against the backdrop of rapid climate change…

A dynamic framework for assessing and managing risks to ecosystems from fisheries: demonstration for conserving the krill-based food web in Antarctica Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 (Ref: 16864)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The ecosystem approach to fisheries has been discussed since the 1980s. It aims to reduce risks from fisheries to whole, or components of, ecosystems, not just to target species. Precautionary approaches further aim to keep the risk of damage to a low level. Here…

The Medieval Climate Anomaly - A View From Down Under. Abstract PP34B-06 presented at 2010 Fall Meeting, AGU, San Francisco, Calif., 13-17 Dec., 2010 (Ref: 14274)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Knowledge of environmental variability and change during the … Medieval Climate Anomaly (MCA ; ~800 to 1300 - 1400 AD) in the Southern Hemisphere has been characterized by a La Nina-like mean climate state in the Pacific Basin…
