Abstract
The Southern Ocean and Antarctica are changing rapidly. New discoveries and understandings are pointing to a growing role of the Southern Ocean in our changing climate. The loss of mass by Antarctica, the slowing of the southern hemisphere over-turning circulation and the remarkable loss of winter sea-ice in the last two years will be discussed. There is an urgent need to understand these changes and track the human contributions to these changes to support policy makers in this critical decade. I will talk to potential solutions for tracking the Southern Ocean.
Series This talk is part of the British Antarctic Survey - Polar Oceans seminar series series.
