Eddy stirring in the Southern Ocean by Ferrari, Raffaele, Garabato, Alberto C. Naveira, Polzin, K. L.

“…It is contended that the characteristic thermohaline structure of the Southern Ocean, consisting of multiple upper-ocean thermohaline fronts separated and underlaid by regions of homogenized properties, is largely a result of the widespread suppression of eddy stirring by parallel jets.…”

Natural marine cloud brightening in the Southern Ocean by G. G. Mace, S. Benson, R. Humphries, R. Humphries, P. M. Gombert, E. Sterner

“…Here, we examine <span class="inline-formula"><i>N</i>_d</span> variability derived from 5 years of MODIS Level 2-derived cloud properties in a broad region of the summer eastern Southern Ocean and adjacent marginal seas. We demonstrate latitudinal, longitudinal and temporal gradients in <span class="inline-formula"><i>N</i>_d</span> that are strongly correlated with the passage of air masses over high-PP waters that are mostly concentrated along the Antarctic Shelf poleward of 60<span class="inline-formula">^∘</span> S. …”
