Antarctic sea ice, in the form of immobile coastal fast ice and the more extensive moving pack ice (see Antarctic Sea Ice #1 ), supports one of the most extensive and productive ecosystems on Earth and is crucial to the structure and function of Southern Ocean marine ecosystems that are highly attuned to its presence and seasonal rhythms. Changes in Antarctic sea-ice coverage and seasonality, thickness (and snow cover depth) and properties have wide-ranging consequences with cascading effects across food chains. These effects include: change in the phenology of phytoplankton and ice algal blooms; shifts in species composition, distribution and abundance, leading to trophic mismatches in both time and space that impact ecosystem structure and function; changes in the breeding and foraging distribution of sea ice-obligate predators such as Adlie penguins; and the incursion of sub-Antarctic and/or invasive warmer-climate marine species. Looking to the future, sea-ice coverage is predicted to significantly decrease by the end of this century in response to anthropogenic warming (see Antarctic Sea Ice #3 ), leading to significant reductions in ice-associated primary production and sea ice-dependent species including Antarctic krill, Antarctic Silverfish, Adlie and Emperor penguins, Weddell and other pack-ice seals, and southern minke and other whale species. |
