In 2018, the Canadian Coast Guard approved a science team to sample in tandem with its ice-breaking and ship escorting operations. This collaboration provided the first mixing observations during winter that covered the largest spatial extent of the St. Lawrence Estuary and the Gulf of St. Lawrence ever measured in any season. Contrary to previous assumptions, we demonstrate that fluvial nitrate inputs from upstream (i.e., Great Lakes) are the most significant source of nitrate in the estuary.

We developed a high-resolution computer model to simulate how the ocean, sea ice, and ice shelves interact around Antarctica. This helps us understand their critical role in global climate and sea-level rise. Our model successfully captures essential features like major currents and seasonal ice changes. Despite some remaining biases, it provides a useful tool for predicting future changes in this vital and rapidly evolving region.

We created the first standardised dataset of in-situ ocean measurements time series from around Antarctica collected since 1970s. This includes temperature, salinity, pressure, and currents recorded by instruments deployed in icy, challenging conditions. Our analysis highlights the dominance of tidal currents and separates these from other patterns to study regional energy distribution. This unique dataset offers a foundation for future research on Antarctic ocean dynamics and ice interactions.

Polynyas are areas of open water that form within the sea ice during the Antarctic winter. They occur along the coastline and act as hotspots for air–sea interactions and sea-ice formation. We use the P-SKRIPSv2 model to simulate air–sea–ice–ocean interactions in the Ross Sea. Model results are compared with observations, and we test how changes in air–sea–ice coupling affect the system. Our findings show that P-SKRIPSv2 provides a valuable tool to study polynyasa and understand their dynamics.

We present a decade-long mooring time series from southern Terra Nova Bay, Ross Sea, begun in December 2014 as the “DITx” array. Three sites around the Drygalski Ice Tongue record temperature, salinity, pressure, and currents. The data highlight seasonal cycles and variability, informing studies of water mass formation, ice–ocean interactions, glaciology, and regional ecosystems.

This paper describes underwater robotic measurements in an energetic strait. The data show how energy is transferred from winds and tides to turbulent processes. Boundary layers of strong turbulence affected the water from surface to seafloor across an unusually deep extent, except when fresher or warmer waters moved into the region. Numerical models revealed that turbulent energy transport allowed boundary layers to interact. This phenomenon may impact the biological structure of coastal seas.

Understanding ocean-driven melting of Antarctic ice shelves is critical for predicting future sea level. However, ocean observations from beneath ice shelves are scarce. Here, we present unique ocean and melting data from the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica. We use our observations to evaluate common methods of representing melting in ocean–climate models (melting
parameterisations) and show that these parameterisations overestimate melting when the ocean is warm and/or currents are weak.

Lakes and reservoirs are warming across the globe. To better understand how lakes are changing and to project their future behavior amidst various sources of uncertainty, simulations with a range of lake models are required. This in turn requires international coordination across different lake modelling teams worldwide. Here we present a protocol for and results from coordinated simulations of climate change impacts on lakes worldwide.

Short summary
The simulation of ocean waves is important for various reasons, e.g. ship route safety and coastal vulnerability assessments. SWAN is a popular tool with which ocean waves may be predicted. Simulations using this tool can be computationally expensive. The present study thus aimed to understand which typical parallel-computing SWAN model set-up will be most effective. There thus do exist configurations where these simulations are most time-saving and effective.

Short summary
This article provides best practices for estimating an ocean turbulence parameter, epsilon, from velocity measurements. Improper data handling can lead to significant errors in the estimated mixing, propagating into estimates of heat transfers, salt, dissolved gases, and nutrients. The article explains how to process velocity datasets using benchmark datasets from different instruments and platforms in varied ocean environments. The datasets allow users to test their processing algorithms.
