| Abstract | This project will advance the understanding of causes and implications of recent extreme sea ice variability in the Antarctic through development of a research and logistical partnership with New Zealand. We focus on the Ross Sea as an area of strategic interest for the US and New Zealand, a major locus of recent variability, and as a key area of significance to global ocean circulation and intact ecosystem food webs, motivating the establishment of the Ross Sea Marine Protected Area (MPA).
