Over the 40‐year satellite record, there has been a slight increasing trend in total annual
mean Antarctic sea ice extent of approximately 1.5% per decade that is made up of the sum …

The continental shelf of the Ross Sea exhibits substantial variations in physical forcing, ice
cover, and biological processes on a variety of time and space scales. Its circulation is …

To understand how planet Earth works we study it increasingly as a system–a collection of
interdependent parts or spheres–the lithosphere, the hydrosphere, the cryosphere, the …

This book is a comprehensive survey of the climatology and meteorology of Antarctica. The
first section of the book reviews the methods by which we can observe the Antarctic …

This paper presents a new climatology of Southern Hemisphere (SH) extratropical cyclones.
This has been compiled by applying a state-of-the-art cyclone tracking scheme to the 6 …

Abstract In Austral summer 2016/2017, the sea ice extent (SIE) in the Weddell Sea dropped
to a near‐record value in the satellite era (1.88× 106 km2), a large negative seasonal …

The winter climatology of Northern Hemisphere cyclone activity was derived from 6-hourly
NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data for the period from 1958 to 1999, using software which …

A new dataset of monthly and annual mean near-surface climate data (temperature, surface
and mean sea level pressure, and wind speed) for the Antarctic region has been created …

This paper brings a new perspective on the large scale dynamics of severe heat wave (HW)
events that commonly affect southern Australia. Through an automatic tracking scheme, the …
