Operational analyses and re-analyses, provided by ECMWF for the period 1958-2010, were used to investigate the role of atmospheric forcing in the Ross and Weddell Seas. State variables have been used to estimate the surface heat fluxes via empirical formulae. Interactions between atmosphere and ocea...
