Status of Southern Ocean Observations

MAY 2004 NOV 2005

Climate of Antarctica and the Southern Ocean (CASO) S. Rintoul, E. Fahrbach and I. Renfrew on behalf of the CLIVAR/CliC/SCAR Southern Ocean Panel

Climate research themes for the IPY Antarctica and the Southern Ocean in the global water cycle Southern hemisphere teleconnections Climate processes at the Antarctic continental margin Climate – ecosystem – biogeochemistry interactions in the Southern Ocean Records of past Antarctic climate variability and change

Tackling key unknowns: CASO will: Obtain the first circumpolar snapshot of the Southern Ocean, including physical, ecological and biogeochemical properties. Measure the circumpolar extent and thickness of Antarctic sea ice through an annual cycle for the first time. Observe the sub-ice ocean circulation, water mass properties and biological distributions

IPY Observing System: Synoptic multi-disciplinary transects Sea ice volume Enhanced sea ice drifter array Ocean circulation under sea ice Enhanced Southern Ocean Argo Enhanced meteorological measurements Ice cores from high accumulation rate coastal sites Process studies

SASSI Synoptic Antarctic Shelf-Slope Interactions Study

Recommendations: Maintain a focus on the Southern Ocean (thank you for an excellent workshop) Get involved in IPY-related modelling studies “What if….?” experiments Beware of single-hemisphere expts
