Disentangling Advection and Lagrangian Evolution of Surface Chlorophyll in a Nearshore Submarine Canyon Using Satellite Remote Sensing and High‐Frequency Radar Open
Palmer Deep submarine canyon on the western Antarctic Peninsula hosts permanent penguin breeding rookeries and is characterized by elevated chlorophyll‐a compared to the surrounding continental shelf. Particle residence times within the ca…

The Science, Engineering, and Validation of Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal and Storage Open
Scenarios to stabilize global climate and meet international climate agreements require rapid reductions in human carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions, often augmented by substantial carbon dioxide removal (CDR) from the atmosphere. While some…

Influence of seasonally varying sea-ice concentration and subsurface ocean heat on sea-ice thickness and sea-ice seasonality for a ‘warm-shelf’ region in Antarctica Open
Processes driving changes in sea-ice seasonality and sea-ice thickness were explored for a ‘warm-shelf’ region along the West Antarctic Peninsula using vertically coupled sea-ice-ocean thermodynamic simulations, with and without assimilate…

Biophysical Dynamics at Ocean Fronts Revealed by Bio‐Argo Floats Open
The straining regions of the ocean in between mesoscale eddies contain large vertical velocities that may be important in regulating phytoplankton accumulation rates. We analyze time series of variables measured by ocean Bio‐Argo floats (m…

Lagrangian and Eulerian time and length scales of mesoscale ocean chlorophyll from Bio-Argo floats and satellites Open
Phytoplankton form the base of marine food webs and play an important role in carbon cycling, making it important to quantify rates of biomass accumulation and loss. As phytoplankton drift with ocean currents, rates should be evaluated in …

Origin and Attenuation of Mesoscale Structure in Circumpolar Deep Water Intrusions to an Antarctic Shelf Open
Cross-isobath transport of Upper Circumpolar Deep Water (UCDW) provides a major source of heat to the Antarctic continental shelves. Adaptive sampling with a Slocum glider revealed that the UCDW regularly intrudes onto the western Antarcti…

Intraseasonal circulation on the Western Antarctic Peninsula Shelf with implications for shelf-slope exchange Open
The continental shelf on the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula is a region of substantial climate and ecosystem change. The Long Term Ecological Research project at Palmer Station has been sampling and studying the shelf ecosystem an…

Temporal Changes in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current: Implications for the Antarctic Continental Shelves Open
Some of the most rapid melting of ice sheets and ice shelves around Antarctica has occurred where the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) is in close proximity to the Antarctic continent. Several mechanisms have been hypothesized by which …
