Southern Ocean Sea Ice Extent and Area

This indicator is no longer maintained, and is considered OBSOLETE.
INDICATOR DEFINITION
The northern limit of the pack ice as defined by the 15% concentration of sea ice determined by the SSM/I instrument or its replacement.
TYPE OF INDICATOR
There are three types of indicators used in this report:
1.Describes the CONDITION of important elements of a system;
2.Show the extent of the major PRESSURES exerted on a system;
3.Determine RESPONSES to either condition or changes in the condition of a system.
This indicator is one of: CONDITION
RATIONALE FOR INDICATOR SELECTION
Climate is affected by complex interactions between the sea ice and the atmosphere and ocean. The sea ice extent and concentration is determined by the oceanic and atmospheric forcing.  There is evidence of variations in the sea ice extent and concentration on a synoptic time scale as storms pass through the region, and variations in sea ice extent on a multi-year time frame with forcing caused by the Antarctic circumpolar wave.  Over the past 20 years, there is limited evidence of an increase in spatial ice extent and in the length of time that ice is present.  Continued monitoring of sea ice extent and concentration may provide insights into the dynamics of the Southern Ocean and help to predict future climate.
DESIGN AND STRATEGY FOR INDICATOR MONITORING PROGRAM
NASA uses a combination of satellite passive microwave sensors to measure the brightness values over sea ice covered regions.  They then use an algorithm (referred to as the 'team' algorithm) to calculate the ice concentration and to determine the ice edge. The data are available globally on a daily or monthly basis.
RESEARCH ISSUES
Currently, NASA intends to maintain a series of satellite microwave sensors to continue to monitor sea ice extent and concentration. Ongoing research to interpret the data are currently being carried out at the AAD and the Antarctic and Southern Ocean CRC.
Links with other indicators
The sea ice extent and concentration has a large impact on the surface salinity and temperatures. Thus strong links with sea surface salinity and sea surface temperatures.

Biogenic sediment history from diatom remains in cores along Wilkes Land

Preliminary data set contains details of cores processed (eg. sample name/interval, dry weights, reactions, notes) and the methodology used. The future data set will document diatoms observed and counted for each sample. This project also has links to ASAC project 1044 (ASAC_1044), the Wilkes Land Glacial History (WEGA) project.
WEGA cores from both the continental shelf (PC7,11,12)  and slope (PC19, 20, 21) region have been silica-selectively processed for their diatom content (see methodology file for details). The slides are mounted for quantitative assessment. Details of the cores that have been prepared are listed in the file WEGA_cores.csv in the downloadable dataset.
Additional silica-selective slides of the surface sediments on the continental shelf were processed for quantitative assessment. Details of the samples and their locations are listed in the file sediment_samples.csv in the downloadable dataset.
There have been no publications from the prepared slides as of the 15/04/02. An unpublished Honours Thesis uses limited diatom counts from slides prepared from PC 12. (Ms J. Erbs 2001). Title to be forthcoming.
Any further enquiries referring to sample availability, curation, additional samples or publications arising from this material should be directed to Dr L. Armand.

Wave acquisition stereo-camera system measurements (WASS) from a voyage of the S.A. Agulhas II, July 2017

Between 07:00 and 08:00 UTC on the 4th July 2017, the South African icebreaker S.A. Agulhas II entered the Antarctic MIZ (62 South and 30 East) during an explosive polar cyclone.
A system of two GigE monochrome industrial CMOS cameras with a 2/3 inch sensor was installed on the icebreaker. The cameras provide a field of view of the ocean surface around the port side of the ship. Images were recorded with resolution 2448x2048 pixels and a sampling rate 2 Hz during daylight on the 4th July 2017.
The wave acquisition stereo-camera system (WASS; https://www.dais.unive.it/wass/) is used to reconstruct the water surface elevation.
Reconstructed surface elevations are given as .nc files (6).
The file name is “wass__20170704_hhmm.nc” where hh and mm denote the hour and minute in UTC of the start of each acquisition.
X_grid and Y_grid are the grid in x and y direction, resolution 1000mm or 1m.
Fps is the acquisition frequency, resolution 2Hz.
Time is a dummy variable, time is reconstructed from start time and fps.
Z is the surface elevation in space and time, in mm. Missing values are "Nan".
Other variables are WASS control variables.
Further details on the measurements and use of the data can be found at Alberello et al. “An extreme wave field in the winter Antarctic marginal ice zone during an explosive polar cyclone”.

CTD data of cruise in2018_v05 of the RV Investigator

Oceanographic measurements were collected aboard RV Investigator cruise in1805 (CSIRO voyage designation in2018_v05) from 16th October to 16th November 2018, along a number of transects across a standing meander of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current between 148o and 156oE. A total of 77 CTD vertical profile stations were taken on the cruise, most to within 12 metres of the bottom. Over 1900 Niskin bottle water samples were collected for the measurement of salinity, dissolved oxygen, nutrients (phosphate, nitrate+nitrite, silicate, ammonium and nitrite), chlorophyll, POC and DOC, and for incubation experiments, using a 36 bottle rosette sampler. Full depth current profiles were collected by an LADCP attached to the CTD package. Upper water column current profile data were collected by a ship mounted ADCP (75 kHz and 150 kHz). Data coverage was increased by additional transects towing a Triaxus towed CTD system. A microstructure profiler was deployed at many of the CTD stations. Meteorological and water property data were collected by the array of ship's underway sensors. An oceanographic mooring was deployed at 55o 32.544’S , 150o 52.332’E, and a series of floats and drifters were deployed. Bathymetry was collected by the ship’s multibeam system.
The data set contains CTD 2dbar averaged data, and Niskin bottle data (core hydrochemistry of salinity, dissolved oxygen and nutrients), in text and matlab formats, and a full data report. A WOCE (CCHDO) 'exchange' format version of the data is also available on request.

Studies of Beaks and Parasites of Antarctic Cephalopods

Metadata record for data expected ASAC Project 11
See the link below for public details on this project.
From the abstract of the referenced paper:
The Australian Antarctic Division carried out an extensive sampling program for pelagic and benthic fauna in Prydz Bay, Antarctica (Indian Ocean sector) in January to March 1991.  A total of 341 cephalopod specimens comprising 256 squids and 85 octopods were captured for study.  This preliminary report presents capture records of eight species of squids: Brachioteuthis sp., Kondakovia longimena, Bathyteuthis abyssicola, Mastigoteuthis psychophila, Psychroteuthis glacialis, Alluroteuthis antarcticus, Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni and Galiteuthis glacialis.  The Octopods captured are Megalehedone senei and several species of Pareledone.  Psychoteuthis glacialis is reported to congregate on the bottom near the shelf edge at the depth of 400-600 metres.  No distinctive pattern in diel vertical movement was found for any of the species captured.  Evidence suggests the existence of ontogenetic descent in Galiteuthis glacialis.
Cephalopod catches from the extensive sampling program for fishes and zooplankton were studied.  For the pelagic fauna, half-hour duration IYGPT hauls were taken at three depths at 63 stations evenly distributed over Prydz Bay area.  The three depths fished by the IYGPT at each station were near the surface, near the bottom or 800 m whichever was less, and the midpoint between those two depths.  The 63 stations coincided with most of the stations used in the zooplankton sampling program which employed an RMT 1 + 8 net and sampled from 0-200 metres.  Additionally 21 benthic samples were taken using bottom trawl, fished for half hour duration on the shelf of Prydz Bay.

Sea Surface Temperature Warming Rates in Australian Marine Parks according to the SSTAARS

This dataset measures the mean decadal warming rates of the sea surface temperature (SST) in 58 Australian Marine Parks (with the exception of the Heard Island and McDonald Islands Marine Park) over the past 25 years (1992 to 2016). They are derived from the Sea Surface Temperature Atlas of the Australian Regional Seas (SSTAARS). The field of “trend_d” represents the linear SST trend for March 1992 to December 2016. The unit of the warming rates is Celsius degree/per decade.
This research is supported by the National Environmental Science Program (NESP) Marine Biodiversity Hub through Project D1.

Resonance plays a secondary role in amplifying underwater vocalizations of Weddell seals (Leptonychotes weddellii).

The date are of the highest amplitudes across the frequency range of Weddell seal tonal trills (an underwater call made by males).  Each column presents the results of  a frequency amplitude measure that is relative to the highest amplitude of that trill, independent of the frequency at which that amplitude occurs.  This removes the influence of the overall amplitude of the call which is influence of  the distance the sea was from the hydrophone when the recording was made.  Four trill patterns were identified (A - D) and a number of trills not included in the analyses are classed as type X.  The X call types were excluded because the original recording was later found to be overloaded or partly masked by ice noises or the calls of another seal.   Analysis details are included in the accompanying manuscript.
The accompanying Excel file contain the frequency amplitude measurements of individual trills at two location groups: the Aurora Truning location at the anchorage location of the Aurora Australis near Davis and the other group is a number of breeding groups in the Vestfold Hills.
Variable A is the frequency in Hz, 
Variables B to DH at the Aurora Turning location and B to BY at the Davis locations are data from individual trills.
Rows 2 or 3 indicate the four Trill patterns, A, B, C or D, with an X designation for trills that were not included in the analyses due to limited frequency ranges or overloading of the original recordings (that was discovered later in the analyses).
ssize or samplesize is the number of trills that were at each frequency bin.

Site occupancy by breeding Adelie penguins in East Antarctica

This dataset collates data on occupancy of geographic sites by breeding Adelie penguins across east Antarctica between 37 degrees E -160 degrees E from the 1950s to the present day. A separate dataset contains a table and maps of geographic sites in East Antarctica where Adelie penguins could potentially breed. This occupancy dataset comprises a table of breeding sites and a table of occupancy observations. The breeding site table has a list of the geographic sites where breeding Adelie penguins have been observed at least once. The table contains for each breeding site, the names used for each site in the literature, the literature sources for those names, the geographic centroid of the breeding location within the geographic site, and any comments to help interpret the breeding site. The occupancy table contains observations of the presence or absence of breeding Adelie penguins at each breeding site and split-year breeding season obtained from the published primary and secondary literature and from the researchers' unpublished data.
These data also include occupancy survey data collected as part of ASAC 2722 -
