Thriving ecosystem discovered following iceberg calving - British Antarctic Survey ANTARCTICA: Scientists have discovered vibrant communities of ancient sponges and corals on the newly exposed seafloor following the calving of the giant A-84 iceberg. This offers new insights into ho...

Delighted to be linked with such a cool project. Some exciting glider data and biogeochemistry to come! @bas.ac.uk www.bas.ac.uk/media-post/t...

Seasonal regimes of warm Circumpolar Deep Water intrusion toward Antarctic ice shelves - Communications Earth & Environment Four seasonal deep water intrusion regimes, two wind-driven and two buoyancy-driven, exist on the Antarctic continental shelf, according to an eddy-resolving model of the Southern Ocean.

Our new paper is out! We use the Southern Ocean High Resolution Model (SOHI) to investigate seasonal heat intrusions toward the Antarctic ice shelves.
