Tropical to high-latitude teleconnections and impacts on air-ocean-sea-ice interactions around Antarctica

This work aimed to understand the influences of tropical to high-latitude Southern Hemisphere teleconnections on Southern Ocean atmospheric circulation, the air-sea-sea ice system, and Antarctic sea ice variability. It also sought to investigate how the Southern Annular Mode (SAM) interacts with tropically-forced climate patterns such as Zonal Wave 3 (ZW3) to affect high-latitude atmospheric circulation and impact sea-ice.
