Processes of Stratification Breakdown and Restratification in Antarctic Coastal Polynyas
Antarctic coastal polynyas are areas of persistent open water surrounded by sea ice. They are characterized by deep winter mixing due to dense water formation from sea ice production and elevated biological productivity after spring restratification. Antarctic coastal polynyas are diverse in terms o...
