Goals of the program
- Study the interactions between atmosphere, sea ice, and high southern latitude ocean
- Develop models for Antarctic regional processes and relate them to global modals
- Determine the connections between Antarctica and global climate
- Learn the importance of Antarctic water masses for global ocean circulation
