  • Changes in Southern Ocean circulation have preceded shifts in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation in the North Atlantic over the past 1,300 years, according to an analysis of bamboo coral records from the southwest Pacific.

  • Over five years, implementation of the NHS England Lung Cancer Screening Programme achieved high early-stage detection rates and demonstrated that the programme is both feasible and scalable for reaching high-risk and underserved populations.

  • The Totten Glacier in East Antarctica is grounded below sea level and vulnerable to ocean forcing. Observations and simulations demonstrate warm water access from offshore to the glacier, facilitated by deep topography off the Sabrina Coast.

  • Ross Sea Bottom Water, a major source of Antarctic Bottom Water, has experienced significant freshening in recent decades. Here the authors use 23 years of summer measurements to document temporal variability in the salinity of the Ross Sea High Salinity Shelf Water (HSSW) and found that HSSW salinity decreased between 1995 and 2014 and rebounded sharply after 2014.

  • The Southern Ocean makes a substantial contribution to the oceanic carbon sink. Observationally based estimates of carbon subduction suggest that carbon sequestration depends on physical properties, such as mixed layer depth, ocean currents, wind and eddies, that are potentially sensitive to climate variability and change.

  • Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) sinks near Antarctica and fills the deep ocean. This Review discusses how AABW is formed, past changes to its properties and transport, and projects future changes in AABW and the deep overturning circulation.

  • Environmental factors and distance are known to influence the structure of marine microbial communities. Using a data set spanning the Southern Ocean, Wilkins et al.now demonstrate that fluid transport (advection) is another important factor involved in shaping the marine microbial ecosystem.

  • Antarctic bottom water (AABW), a key component of ocean circulation, provides oxygen to the deep ocean. This work shows that AABW transport reduced over the past decades in the Australian Antarctic Basin, weakening the abyssal overturning circulation and decreasing deep ocean oxygen.

  • Expansion of the Ross Gyre increases poleward transport of Circumpolar Deep Water toward the Amundsen Sea and the West Antarctic Ice Sheet and has implications for oceanic heat supply to the continental shelf, according to numerical modelling.
