Evidence for link between modelled trends in Antarctic sea ice and underestimated westerly wind changes
Mechanisms responsible for the recent increase in Antarctic sea ice cover remain elusive. Here, the authors show that model underestimates of changes in wind-induced ocean circulation may contribute, in part, to the failure of CMIP5 models to accurately capture modern Antarctic sea ice trends.
