Scientists chart 45 million years of Antarctic temperature change
Authors: Te Herenga Waka—Victoria University of Wellington, GNS Science, and Birmingham University (UK)
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Papers
Summary: New study shows 'very clear and direct response' of Antarctic temperatures to changing carbon dioxide levels. Molecular fossils and computer modelling have enabled scientists to build the first catalogue of Antarctic ocean temperatures over the past 45 million years, offering new insights into future sea level changes.

Authors: Antarctic Science Platform
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Case Studies
Summary: The long-term perspective of the Antarctic Science Platform has afforded research partners the certainty to invest in new equipment.
Case Study: International cooperation and ocean monitoring in the Ross Sea
Authors: Antarctic Science Platform
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Case Studies, Science, Fieldwork
Summary: The Antarctic Science Platform is collaborating across New Zealand and with other nations to share and deploy resources into Antarctica and the Southern Ocean.

Summary: A team of researchers are investigating the complexity of the Ross Sea ocean-atmosphere system. These are some highlights from 2021/22.
Changes in the Ross Sea and the future of carbon storage
Authors: Miles Lamare, Vonda Cummings, Ian Hawes and Rowan Howard-Williams
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Cold Call Articles
Ownership: Antarctic Science Platform
Summary: The Southern Ocean mops up anthropogenic CO2 emissions. But acting as a ‘sink’ for this excess heat and carbon dioxide is having an effect on the ocean and the ecosystems it supports.
The Southern Ocean carbon sink: Will it fill up?
Authors: Jocelyn Turnbull and Rowan Howard-Williams
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Cold Call Articles
Ownership: Antarctic Science Platform
Summary: A key question for understanding future climate impacts is what drives the uptake of carbon into sinks, and how that might change. The Southern Ocean absorbs by far the most carbon dioxide of any region of the world.
On the Precipice

Document Type:
Reports, Papers
Ownership: GNS Science—Te Pū Ao
Summary: The numbers are sharp and the repercussions alarming — but it’s not too late. We still have a chance to curb CO2 emissions before we reach a climate tipping point.
