Antarktis-bibliografi er en database over den norske Antarktis-litteraturen.

Hensikten med bibliografien er å synliggjøre norsk antarktisforskning og annen virksomhet/historie i det ekstreme sør. Bibliografien er ikke komplett, spesielt ikke for nyere forskning, men den blir oppdatert.

Norsk er her definert som minst én norsk forfatter, publikasjonssted Norge eller publikasjon som har utspring i norsk forskningsprosjekt.

Antarktis er her definert som alt sør for 60 grader. I tillegg har vi tatt med Bouvetøya.

Det er ingen avgrensing på språk (men det meste av innholdet er på norsk eller engelsk). Eldre norske antarktispublikasjoner (den eldste er fra 1894) er dominert av kvalfangst og ekspedisjoner. I nyere tid er det den internasjonale polarforskninga som dominerer. Bibliografien er tverrfaglig; den dekker både naturvitenskapene, politikk, historie osv. Skjønnlitteratur er også inkludert, men ikke avisartikler eller upublisert materiale.

Til høyre finner du en «HELP-knapp» for informasjon om søkemulighetene i databasen. Mange referanser har lett synlige lenker til fulltekstversjon av det aktuelle dokumentet. For de fleste tidsskriftartiklene er det også lagt inn sammendrag.

Bibliografien er produsert ved Norsk Polarinstitutts bibliotek.

We present the first year-long current meter records ever obtained near the floating Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf in the Weddell Sea. The currents are steered along the ice front, but in the lower layer where the bottom topography is descending toward the west the current has a component toward the ice front of about 3 cm s−1. During winter the temperature stayed near the surface freezing point, while the salinity increased, indicating that ice was formed and brine released. The seasonal variation in salinity was 0.15±0.05 psu, corresponding to the formation of 1–2 m of ice on a shelf depth of 400 m. The transport of High-Salinity Shelf Water (HSSW) into the ice shelf cavity was found to be of the order 0.5×106 m3 s−1. The production of this water due to oscillating tides and off shelf winds was found to be of the same order of magnitude. In contact with glacial ice at great depths, and because of the depression of the freezing point, the HSSW is transformed to Ice Shelf Water (ISW) by cooling and melting processes. The melting rate was estimated to 1×1011 ton yr−1. This corresponds to the melting of 0.2 m ice per year if the melting is evenly distributed over the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf. If the melting is concentrated along a path from the Berkner Shelf around the Berkner Island to the Filchner Depression, then melting rates up to 7 m yr−1 must be expected. A comparison of HSSW characteristics in the Ronne Depression, our winter observations on the Berkner Shelf, and the ISW flowing out of the Filchner Depression indicates that very little water passes through the cavity from the Ronne to the Filchner Depression. It appears that most of the ISW originating from processes on the Berkner Shelf escapes the cavity in the Filchner Depression. This leaves the Berkner Shelf as the important source of ISW and subsequently of the Weddell Sea Bottom Water formed from ISW.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 95(C3), 3253–3263. https://doi.org/https://doi.org/10.1029/JC095iC03p03253

Oxygen 18 and helium isotope data from stations located in the Filchner Depression, on the continental slope of the southern Weddell Sea, and in the central Weddell Sea are presented and discussed. The 18O and 4He signals imprinted on the water circulating under the Filchner/Ronne Ice Shelf (Ice Shelf Water, or ISW) due to melting of glacial ice at the base of the ice shelf are traced across the sill separating the Filchner Depression from the Weddell Sea. Low δ18O values are correlated with high 4He concentrations in the ISW found in the Filchner Depression (minimum δ18O values: −0.8‰; maximum 4He concentrations: about 4.7×10−8 cm3 STP g−1). The fraction of glacial meltwater contained in the ISW found in the Filchner Depression is estimated to about 6 to 7‰. The 18O and helium isotope data from the overflowing shelf water component observed on the continental slope confirm the hypothesis that ISW contributes significantly to the Weddell Sea Bottom Water (WSBW). On the basis of a inultiparameter water mass analysis it is discussed which fraction of the WSBW originates from ISW and which other shelf waters potentially could contribute to WSBW.

Distribution of Water Masses on the Continental Shelf in the Southern Weddell Sea. In The Polar Oceans and Their Role in Shaping the Global Environment (Vol. 85, pp. 159–176). https://doi.org/10.1029/GM085p0159

Water properties on the continental shelf in the southern Weddell Sea observed during NARP 92/93 are presented. The station distribution includes a section close to the floating ice shelf from the Filchner Depression to the Antarctic Peninsula. Temperature, salinity, oxygen, silicate, CFC-ll and CFC-12 distributions are shown. Melting under the ice shelves, circulation systems, residence times, sediment/water interactions and bottom water formation are discussed. Ice Shelf Water (ISW), which is formed by cooling and melting below the floating ice shelf, seems to be about 10 years older than its parent water mass, which indicates the residence time below the ice shelf. The average melting rate below the Filchner Ronne ice shelf, based on the volume flux of ISW in the Filchner Depression is estimated to be 0.1 m/year. Compared with earlier observations considerable changes were found in the water characteristics and distribution: The temperature of the Weddell Deep Water has increased 0.7°C since 1977. Western Shelf Water, usually dominating the bottom layers in the Filchner Depression and on the Berkner Shelf, was found only in the Ronne Depression.

Cold shelf waters flowing out of the Filchner Depression in the southern Weddell Sea make a significant contribution to the production of Weddell Sea Bottom Water (WSBW), a precursor to Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW). We use all available current meter records from the region to calculate the flux of cold water (<−1.9°C) over the sill at the northern end of the Filchner Depression (1.6 ± 0.5 Sv), and to determine its fate. The estimated fluxes and mixing rates imply a rate of WSBW formation (referenced to −0.8°C) of 4.3 ± 1.4 Sv. We identify three pathways for the cold shelf waters to enter the deep Weddell Sea circulation. One path involves flow constrained to follow the shelf break. The other two paths are down the continental slope, resulting from the cold dense water being steered northward by prominent ridges that cross the continental slope near 36°W and 37°W. Mooring data indicate that the deep plumes can retain their core characteristics to depths greater than 2000 m. Probably aided by thermobaricity, the plume water at this depth can flow at a speed approaching 1 m s−1, implying that the flow is occasionally supercritical. We postulate that such supercriticality acts to limit mixing between the plume and its environment. The transition from supercritical to slower, more uniform flow is associated with very efficient mixing, probably as a result of hydraulic jumps.
