It plays a fundamental role in the global overturning circulation, and is a location of intense upwelling of deep water. The deep water that upwells is rich in nutrients, depleted in oxygen (O<sub>2</sub>), and enriched in carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>). Southern Ocean upwelling is thus important to the global carbon cycle through its impact on global ocean productivity and through its influence on air-sea CO<sub>2</sub> exchange. However, because of its widespread nature in time and space, and its underpinning weak vertical flows, it is challenging to detect Southern Ocean upwelling from observations. In a novel approach, we utilize measurements from Biogeochemical-Argo floats deployed throughout the Southern Ocean by the Southern Ocean Carbon and Climate Observations and Modeling project, to identify Southern Ocean upwelling through its biogeochemical fingerprint. Our approach detects upwelling by examining surface carbon dioxide ([CO<sub>2</sub>]) and oxygen ([O<sub>2</sub>]) concentration Relative to Saturation (CORS). Differences between observed (calculated from pH for CO<sub>2</sub>) and saturating gas concentrations are used to fingerprint upwelling. Spatial analysis of the identified upwelling reveals a latitudinal gradient in upwelling, with the maximum toward the south of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. Furthermore, our observational diagnostics provides some support of previous model-based propositions of a focalization of Southern Ocean upwelling on hotspots of complex topography. Ongoing analysis with our approach can provide further insight into the nature and spatio-temporal variability of Southern Ocean upwelling.</p>","PeriodicalId":54340,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans","volume":"130 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2023JC020597","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144179016","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This method compresses the high-dimensional data into a latent subspace, enabling efficient statistical sampling and generating a large number of low-dimensional samples for nonlinear particle filtering. We train the VAE using multiple sea ice reanalysis data sets and conduct historical assimilation experiments using the latest ice-ocean coupled model developed by Princeton University's Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory. Results indicate that assimilating satellite observations of sea ice concentration and thickness with LSPF during the winter freezing period significantly reduces model errors, particularly for sea ice thickness. All simulations are extended to September without additional assimilation and evaluated with independent satellite observations and mooring data. Findings further demonstrate that wintertime nonlinear particle filter assimilation can improve prediction skill, especially when performed every 3 days, reducing model errors by approximately 30%–50%. Therefore, the LSPF method proposed in this study provides a promising and effective solution for nonlinear data assimilation in realistic high-dimensional geoscience applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":54340,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans","volume":"130 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024JC022206","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144148418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A shelfbreak exchange process which has been commonly observed in the Middle Atlantic Bight, south of New England, is the mid-depth salinity maximum intrusion, occurring predominantly in the stratified season. It is easily identified within salinity profiles, and yet there have been few hydrographic surveys that have resolved the spatial extent of these features. In order to study these features in more detail, a dedicated research cruise was directed in June 2021 toward mapping and characterization of one of these intrusions. Using a combination of shipboard CTD profiles, Autonomous Underwater Vehicle missions, and a towed microstructure profiler, a strong intrusion was mapped in three-dimensions for the first time. The intrusion penetrated 33 km onshore of the upper portion of the Shelfbreak Front, was 14 km wide in the along-shelf, and was 10–30 m thick. A warm core ring was directly offshore of the intrusion and likely contributed to the initiation of the intrusion.

This study examines the Labrador Sea's response to increased Greenland freshwater influx using a very high-resolution, eddy-rich configuration of the NEMO ocean model. Two 9-year long experiments with identical setups, except one excluding Greenland runoff, suggest that freshwater influx leads to freshwater content increase (by up to 39%) and intensified stratification (enhanced convective resistance by up to 29%) in the Labrador Sea, whereas heat content remains mainly unchanged (up to 6% increase). Strengthened stratification weakens but does not entirely stop deep convection allowing continued water mass formation within the region (maximum mixed layer depth differences of up to 635 m). A sensitivity analysis indicates warmer, saltier surface waters and colder, fresher subsurface layers when Greenland meltwater is excluded likely driven by reduced lateral exchange from the West Greenland Current system and enhanced southward Arctic Water transport across Davis Strait. Offshore freshwater exchange in the Labrador Sea interior is not solely controlled by Greenland meltwater influx but also by air-sea fluxes and deepwater formation. Over longer timescales exceeding a decade, ongoing freshening and intensified stratification could further disrupt essential oceanic processes with potential consequences for deepwater formation and Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation.

This was likely due to the lateral input of shelf sediments entrained by a westward anticyclonic eddy. These allochthonous particles were mainly composed of small (&lt;53 μm) sediments and were depleted in biogenic components, such as POC and biogenic silica (bSi). In contrast, the flux of vertically derived POC (POC<sub>vertical</sub>), that is, local biogenic POC, was strongly correlated with the surface Chl-<i>a</i> concentration (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup> = 0.62, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.001) and bSi flux (<i>R</i><sup>2</sup> = 0.83, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.001), indicating that the POC<sub>vertical</sub> flux in the mesopelagic zone was governed by both primary productivity and the growth of diatoms, with the latter being the main controlling factor. Our results highlight that the POC<sub>vertical</sub> flux was controlled by the seasonal variations in primary productivity and the phytoplankton community structure, whereas the POC<sub>lateral</sub> flux was closely linked to hydrodynamic processes, such as mesoscale eddies.</p>","PeriodicalId":54340,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geophysical Research-Oceans","volume":"130 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144131604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
