Antarctic Sea Ice #3: Trends and Future Projections
Authors: Kyle Clem, Rob Massom, Sharon Stammerjohn and Phillip Reid
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Reports
Ownership: Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research
Summary: Since reliable and continuous satellite records began in 1979, there have been strong regionally- and seasonally-varying patterns of change and variability in sea-ice extent around Antarctica – in contrast to a largely uniform loss of sea ice across the Arctic. This summary on SCAR's Antarctic Environments Portal is based on the best available science.
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.
Case Study: Machine learning-assisted meta-analysis of biological research in Antarctica
Authors: Antarctic Science Platform
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Case Studies, Science
Summary: To understand what Antarctic ecosystems may look like in a warming world, it’s critical to first comprehensively understand the current-day biodiversity and biogeography.
Case Study: Bespoke technology is advancing Antarctic research
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.
Case Study: Scientific Advice to International Antarctic Treaty Meetings
Authors: Antarctic Science Platform
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Case Studies, Science
Summary: New Zealand is one of 12 original signatories to the Antarctic Treaty (signed in 1959), and these annual international meetings are a key target for the Platform’s research data, findings and new understandings.
Highlights of sea ice and carbon cycle feedback research 2021-22
Authors: ASP
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Update, Science
Summary: A team of researchers are investigating drivers of variability in the cycles of sea ice growth and decay in the Ross Sea, and drivers of change in Southern Ocean CO2 uptake and release. These are some highlights from 2021/22.

Authors: ASP
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Update, Science
Summary: A team of researchers are looking at environmental records of how the Antarctic ice sheets and surrounding ocean have changed in the past. These are some highlights from 2021/22.
