Biogeochemical Impact of Snow Cover and Cyclonic Intrusions on the Winter Weddell Sea Ice Pack
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Journal of Geophysical Research"
DOI: 10.1002/2017jc013288
Abstract: Sea ice is a dynamic biogeochemical reactor and a double interface actively interacting with both the atmosphere and the ocean. However, proper understanding of its annual impact on exchanges, and therefore potentially on the climate,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00300-018-2401-7
Abstract: The distribution, density and percentage contribution of pack ice pinnipeds during ship-board censuses in the eastern Weddell Sea in summer 2015/2016 are presented. Of the four true pack ice seal species encountered, crabeater seals predominated.… read more here.

Ross seal distribution in the Weddell Sea: fact and fallacy
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Polar Biology"
DOI: 10.1007/s00300-019-02610-4
Abstract: The presence of Ross seals ( Ommatophoca rossii ) throughout the Weddell Sea is at best equivocal although overview articles usually depict this as fact on distribution maps. This study reviewed the appropriate literature on… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2017.11.020
Abstract: It has been suggested that High-Antarctic waters, despite their remoteness from human activities, are impacted by anthropogenic pollution, and that the local biota are accumulating the contaminants. At present, no data exist on persistent organic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0954102020000140
Abstract: Abstract The genus Pogonophryne is the most species-rich genus of barbeled plunderfishes (Artedidraconidae) and includes more than 25 poorly known species endemic to the Southern Ocean. In this study, we provide new data on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2020gl087014
Abstract: The Weddell Sea Bottom Water (WSBW) export from 1999 to 2019 displays distinct seasonal and interannual variability. From 2014 into 2017 a marked salinity decrease was recorded, with the lowest salinity, 34.615, attained in early… read more here.

Intraseasonal Sea Ice Concentration Variability Over the Weddell Sea During Austral Autumn
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Geophysical Research Letters"
DOI: 10.1029/2022gl102691
Abstract: The sea ice concentration (SIC) over the Weddell Sea displays obvious intraseasonal variability during austral autumn with a dominant frequency of 5–20 days. The intraseasonal SIC variability is manifested as development of sea ice anomalies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ddi.13120
Abstract: Creating a network of marine protected areas in the Southern Ocean requires extensive knowledge on species’ abundances, distributions and population trends especially in the Weddell Sea where year‐round pack ice makes most of the Weddell… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jcli-d-20-0271.1
Abstract: The World Ocean is estimated to store more than 90% of the excess energy resulting from man-made greenhouse gas–driven radiative forcing as heat. Uncertainties of this estimate are related to undersampling of the subpolar and… read more here.
