• The Role of Mesoscale Eddies in the Rectification of the Southern Ocean Response to Climate Change (2010, methodology): “1, which was used for the recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report (AR4), ranking among the best models in terms of reproducing the Southern Hemisphere (SH) westerly winds and ocean circulation (Russell et al. 2006; Saenko 2007; Sloyan and Kamenkovich 2007).”
• The Pliocene Model Intercomparison Project Phase 2: large-scale climate features and climate sensitivity (2020, background): “There have been several studies which have proposed mechanisms to explain this, including heat uptake by the Southern Ocean (Stouffer et al., 1989), as well as ocean heat transport mechanisms (Russell et al., 2006).”
• Climate Feedbacks and Their Implications for Poleward Energy Flux Changes in a Warming Climate (2011, background): “Russell et al. (2006b), Russell et al. (2006a), Delworth and Zeng (2008), Toggweiler and Russell (2008), and Sen Gupta et al. (2009) have emphasized the importance of surface westerlies over the Southern Ocean as well as their poleward shift and intensification in allowing for increased oceanic…”
• Photophysiology in two major Southern Ocean phytoplankton taxa: Photoprotection in Phaeocystis antarctica and Fragilariopsis cylindrus (2009, background): “Anticipated changes in climate, such as increased surface stratification (Sarmiento et al. 1998), reduced sea ice extent (Joos et al. 1999; Matear and Hirst 1999), and enhanced wind speeds (Russell et al. 2006) could drastically alter the hydrography of the Southern Ocean.”
• Spatial Variability of Sea Level Rise in Twenty-First Century Projections (2010, background): “8), followed by a strong reintensification by 25 Sv during 2100–2300 when the GHG concentration is stabilized (Russell et al. 2006).”
• The Southern Annular Mode: Variability, trends, and climate impacts across the Southern Hemisphere (2020, background): “…& Landschützer, 2019). with the general consensus that the Southern Ocean carbon sink has weakened over the last several decades and this is at least in part in response to the positive trend in the SAM (Le Quere et al., 2007), although this may not hold true into the future (Russell et al., 2006).”
• Regional scale characteristics of the seasonal cycle of chlorophyll in the Southern Ocean (2011, background): “These uncertainties highlight gaps in our understanding of the regional characteristics of the sensitivity of biological production in the Southern Ocean to changes in spatial and temporal atmospheric forcing scales (Sarmiento et al., 1998; Caldeira and Duffy, 2000; Russell et al., 2006).”
