Combined Swedish-U.S. Expertise to Study the Amundsen Sea
A team of international scientists will work together on a new study of the open water and ice-covered regions of the Amundsen Sea to understand the physical, chemical, and biological interactions that make this region the most biologically productive of any waters adjacent to the Antarctic continent and how the system might change in the face of future increases in regional temperature and in the rate of Antarctic glacier melting.
