SIPN south: coordinating seasonal predictions of sea ice in the Southern Ocean
Like many regions of our planet, the Antarctic is currently undergoing profoundenvironmental changes. Sea ice is a prominent element of this environment: it controls theheat, gas, mass and momentum exchanges between the atmosphere and the ocean. Seaice has been steadily expanding in the Southern Oce...
