Observations of turbulence beneath sea ice in southern McMurdo Sound, Antarctica by C. L. Stevens, N. J. Robinson, M. J. M. Williams, T. G. Haskell

“…The data suggest that the large crystals observed in McMurdo Sound will transition from initial growth at scales smaller than the Kolmogorov lengthscale to sizes substantially (1–2 orders of magnitude) greater than the Kolmogorov scale. …”

Sea Ice Dynamics Drive Benthic Microbial Communities in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica by Ashleigh A. Currie, Ashleigh A. Currie, Alexis J. Marshall, Alexis J. Marshall, Andrew M. Lohrer, Vonda J. Cummings, Sarah Seabrook, S. Craig Cary, S. Craig Cary

“…Using two tractable coastal habitats in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica, where FYI (Cape Evans) and MYI (New Harbour) prevail, we show that the structure and composition of the benthic microbial communities reflect the legacy of sea ice dynamics. …”

Japanese geochemical studies on the McMurdo Sound region in Antarctica during the 1983-84 austral summer by Genki I. Matsumoto, Tetsuya Torii, Tamio Kawano, Tsurahide Cho, Yoshiharu Kobata

“…The contents of the total carbonate materials for a depth of 15m to the bottom in the west lobe of Lake Bonney (55-69mM) were much higher than those of the lakes and ponds (>0.05-7.5mM) in the McMurdo Sound region, interesting in relation to their sources.…”

Airborne mapping of the sub-ice platelet layer under fast ice in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica by C. Haas, C. Haas, C. Haas, C. Haas, P. J. Langhorne, W. Rack, G. H. Leonard, G. M. Brett, D. Price, J. F. Beckers, J. F. Beckers, A. J. Gough

“…<p>Basal melting of ice shelves can result in the outflow of supercooled ice shelf water, which can lead to the formation of a sub-ice platelet layer (SIPL) below adjacent sea ice. McMurdo Sound, located in the southern Ross Sea, Antarctica, is well known for the occurrence of a SIPL linked to ice shelf water outflow from under the McMurdo Ice Shelf. …”

Cosmogenic nuclide exposure age scatter records glacial history and processes in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica by A. J. Christ, A. J. Christ, P. R. Bierman, P. R. Bierman, J. L. Lamp, J. M. Schaefer, G. Winckler

“…<span class="inline-formula">³He</span> exposure ages of olivine in basalt from local volcanic bedrock in the McMurdo Sound region contain many excessively old ages but also have a bimodal distribution with peak probabilities that slightly pre-date and post-date the local LGM; this suggests that glacial clasts from local bedrock record local landscape exposure. …”

Cold call: the acoustic repertoire of Ross Sea killer whales (Orcinus orca, Type C) in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica by Rebecca Wellard, Robert L. Pitman, John Durban, Christine Erbe

“…Acoustic recordings of nine encounters of Type C killer whales were collected in 2012 and 2013 in McMurdo Sound, Ross Sea. In a combined 3.5 h of recordings, 6386 killer whale vocalizations were detected and graded based on their signal-to-noise ratio. …”

Glacial history of Pyramid Trough, southern McMurdo Sound, Antarctica: Constraints on Koettlitz Glacier during the last glacial maximum and termination by Tess Walther, Brenda Hall, George Denton, Chris Hendy

“…Our data suggest that a grounded ice sheet in McMurdo Sound at the LGM resulted not from expansion of local glaciers, such as Koettlitz, from the continent but rather from flow of marine-based ice into the sound from the Ross Sea. …”
