The time now is The freshening increases the surface density stratification between the sea-ice edge and the Subantarctic Front that reduces mixing of warmer deep waters into the surface layer in winter. Posting Rules. Here, we investigate the potential sources of the surface cooling by forcing a newly developed regional configuration of the Regional Ocean Modeling System ROMS for the Southern Ocean with atmospheric reanalysis data and with recent observation-based estimates of surface fluxes from sea ice and land ice for the period to User Name.
