Assessment of the southern polar and subpolar warming in the PMIP4 last interglacial simulations using paleoclimate data syntheses by Q. Gao, Q. Gao, Q. Gao, E. Capron, L. C. Sime, R. H. Rhodes, R. Sivankutty, X. Zhang, B. L. Otto-Bliesner, M. Werner

“…Here we evaluate 12 PMIP4 127 ka Tier 1 model simulations against four recent paleoclimate syntheses of LIG sea and air temperatures and sea ice concentrations. The four syntheses include 99 reconstructions, and all syntheses support the presence of a warmer Southern Ocean, with reduced sea ice and a warmer Antarctica at 127 ka compared to the preindustrial. …”

Predicting pack-ice seal occupancy of ice floes along the Western Antarctic Peninsula. by Michael J Wethington, Bilgecan Şen, Heather J Lynch

“…We explore the habitat use of Antarctic pack-ice seals by analyzing their occupancy patterns on pack-ice floes, employing a novel combination of segmented generalized linear regression and fine-scale (∼ 50 cm pixel resolution) sea ice feature extraction in satellite imagery. Our analysis of environmental factors identified ice floe size, fine-scale sea ice concentration and nearby marine topography as significantly correlated with seal haul out abundance. …”
