Dense shelf water production in the Adélie Depression, East Antarctica, 2004-2012: Impact of the Mertz Glacier calving

Summer repeated hydrographic surveys and 4 years of mooring observations are used to characterize for the first time the interannual variability of the bottom water in the Mertz Glacier Polynya (MGP) on the East Antarctic shelf (142°E–146°E). Until 2010, large interannual variability was observed in...
