Basal melting of floating ice shelves and iceberg calving constitute the two almost equal
paths of freshwater flux between the Antarctic ice cap and the Southern Ocean. The largest …

Marine ecosystems are under increasing anthropogenic pressures from marine and terrestrial
activities. Ship traffic, the major cause of change in the open ocean, and its temporal …

Unprecedented views of surface wind fields in tropical cyclones (hereafter TCs) are provided
by the European Remote Sensing Satellite (ERS) C band scatterometer. Scatterometer …

A quantitative assessment of observed and projected environmental changes in the Southern
Ocean ( SO ) with a potential impact on the marine ecosystem shows: (i) large proportions …

Background Cricoid cartilage pressure induced to prevent pulmonary aspiration from
regurgitation of gastric contents has been recommended, and its efficacy requires a force greater …

Interest for icebergs and their possible impact on southern ocean circulation and biology has
increased during the recent years. While large tabular icebergs are routinely tracked and …

Recent increase in Antarctic freshwater release to the Southern Ocean is suggested to
contribute to change in water masses and sea ice. However, climate models differ in their …

Small icebergs (edge lengths <1 km) are difficult to detect and track. In a recently published
study, it was demonstrated that small targets (ships, islets,…) emerging from the sea can be …

Large uncertainties exist on the volume of ice transported by the Southern Ocean large icebergs,
a key parameter for climate studies, because of the paucity of information, especially on …
