DOI: 10.1029/2018gl081374
Abstract: In January of 2016, the Ross Sea sector of the West Antarctica ice sheet experienced a 3‐week‐long melting episode. Here we quantify the association of the large‐extent and long‐lasting melting event with the enhancement of… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.941323
Abstract: Virioplankton and picoplankton are the most abundant marine biological entities on earth and mediate biogeochemical cycles in the Southern Ocean. However, understanding of their distribution and relationships with environmental factors is lacking. Here, we report… read more here.
