Case study: First fully coupled ocean-atmosphere model for the Ross Sea
Year Published: 2023
Document Type:
Case Studies
Ownership: Antarctic Science Platform
Summary: A new modelling tool developed by Antarctic Science Platform researchers accurately represents ocean-atmosphere-sea ice interactions in the Ross Sea, which is critical for reducing uncertainty in the assessment of future climate scenarios.
Case study: Detecting polynya from space
Year Published: 2023
Document Type:
Case Studies
Ownership: Antarctic Science Platform
Summary: Antarctic Science Platform researchers are using satellite data to determine the spatial extent of polynya with better accuracy, which unlocks the ability to quantify their role in large-scale processes, such as sea-ice formation, ocean circulation and their impact on marine ecosystems.
Case study: New Antarctic Ice Sheet data contributes to policy and planning
Year Published: 2023
Document Type:
Case Studies
Ownership: Antarctic Science Platform
Summary: The Antarctic Science Platform is generating improved, data-constrained models that are being used for planning and adaptation decision-making measures to manage the impacts of future sea level rise on Aotearoa and Antarctica.
Case Study: Scientific Advice to International Antarctic Treaty Meetings
Authors: Antarctic Science Platform
Year Published: 2022
Document Type:
Case Studies, Science
Summary: New Zealand is one of 12 original signatories to the Antarctic Treaty (signed in 1959), and these annual international meetings are a key target for the Platform’s research data, findings and new understandings.
Case Study: ASP researchers contribute the IPCC Assessment Report 6
Authors: Antarctic Science Platform
Year Published: 2021
Document Type:
Case Studies
Summary: Platform researchers have contributed to the sixth IPCC Assessment Report.
Case Study: Development of a National Capability for Improving Antarctic Environmental Projections for Evidence-based Decision Making
Authors: Antarctic Science Platform
Year Published: 2020
Document Type:
Case Studies
Summary: The ASP has collaborated with Victoria University of Wellington, GNS Science and NIWA to create the ASP National Modelling Hub.
Case Study: Development of an international scientific drilling consortium to understand “Stability of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet in a 2°C warmer world” (SWAIS-2C Initiative)
Authors: Antarctic Science Platform
Year Published: 2020
Document Type:
Case Studies
Summary: In a world first, ASP Project 1 Leader, Richard Levy and Objective 1 Leader, Gavin Dunbar, have had extraordinary success in developing an international research consortium involving scientists from nine nations.
