Multidecadal increase in microbial biomass and production along the western Antarctic Peninsula Hugh W. Ducklow, Oscar M. Schofield, Sharon E. Stammerjohn, David L. Kirchman Deep Sea Research Part I Oceanographic Research Papers, 2026 Marine pelagic ecosystems around the world are changing in response to climate change. The marine pelagic ecosystem extending along the western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) is a region of rapid warming and sea ice loss, and in response there have been conspicuous trends in the ecosystem ranging from phytoplankton to krill and penguins. Despite the many ecosystem responses observed globally for phytoplankton and other trophic levels, there have been only a few observations of trends in heterotrophic bacteria, the most numerically dominant organisms on the planet. Here we report on a sustained increase in bacterial biomass over 2003-2019 that occurred throughout a 140,000 km 2 area of the WAP. Concomitant with the rise in bacterial biomass, bacterial production, chlorophyll and primary production also increased throughout the region. The trends appear to be driven by the southward migration along the Peninsula of warm and moist conditions in the north into the cold and dry continental polar regime to the south. The extensive and sustained long-term increases in microbial biomass and activity are another sign of large changes in the WAP ecosystem. • Marine populations from phytoplankton to whales are affected by ocean warming • Few observations of bacteria, numerically dominant in the ocean, responding to warming • New observations show ocean bacteria have doubled in western Antarctica in past 16 yr • Bacterial and phytoplankton growth rates, and thus, DOM supply have also increased • Bacteria and phytoplankton growth respond to interannual variability in sea ice
Modeling Upper Ocean Ecosystem Dynamics in Response to Interannual Sea-Ice Variability in the Western Antarctic Peninsula Catherine R. Czajka, Jessica S. Turner, Sharon Stammerjohn, Heather H. Kim, Oscar Schofield, Benjamin T. Saenz, Scott C. Doney Journal of Geophysical Research Biogeosciences, 2026 In the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), marine plankton dynamics are tightly linked to the interannual variability in environmental conditions, including phenological shifts in sea‐ice seasonality. To explore these linkages, we use a 1‐dimensional vertical ocean‐ice‐ecosystem model (KPP‐Eco‐Ice, or KEI) that simulates physical and ecosystem conditions at a continental shelf mooring location in the Palmer Long Term Ecological Research program sampling grid. KEI allows for year‐round examination of the ecosystem in a region where in situ observations on the shelf are limited to January. Comparisons are made between seasonal sea‐ice retreat, mixed layer depth, primary productivity, and phytoplankton relative abundance, grazing, and loss rates. KEI successfully captures seasonal patterns in the WAP, demonstrating that total seasonal primary production was highest following a winter with late sea‐ice retreat. Stability in the surface mixed layer enables high photosynthetic rates by alleviating light limitation, while wind‐induced surface mixing results in lower phytoplankton production and biomass in years with early sea‐ice retreat. However, mixing reduces iron limitation in surface waters, which may influence phytoplankton species composition. Small, non‐diatom phytoplankton are better‐adapted to high light and low iron conditions, thriving longer in a year with late sea‐ice retreat and higher seasonal primary production, while larger diatoms are more abundant in the years with early sea‐ice retreat and lower seasonal production. These findings have implications for grazer populations and subsequent carbon export from the surface to depth in the WAP region. This study validates the role that sea ice plays in shaping Antarctic ecosystem dynamics.
Decadal increase in phytoplankton community photoprotective pigments associated with shoaling mixed layers along a warming West Antarctic Peninsula Quintin P. Diou‐Cass, Nicole Waite, Oscar Schofield Limnology and Oceanography, 2026 In the Southern Ocean, phytoplankton are critical drivers of biogeochemical cycling and food web dynamics, and show sensitivity to shifting climates. Along the West Antarctic Peninsula, climate‐driven variations in sea ice and hydrography have been linked to long‐term changes in summer phytoplankton productivity. Such changes are hypothesized to reflect decadal shifts in algal light environments, but diagnostic evidence of this light‐dependent response is limited. Using a 27‐yr timeseries of summer phytoplankton pigments and productivity collected along the West Antarctic Peninsula by the Palmer Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) program, we quantified trends in surface phytoplankton photophysiology, productivity, and composition in response to environmental change. Our results revealed a decadal doubling in proportions of phytoplankton photoprotective pigments correlated with long‐term shoaling and strengthening of mixed layer depths. This biophysical signature is consistent with photophysiological response to increased light supply, signifying a long‐term shift in light environments for surface phytoplankton. The long‐term change in community pigment signature could not be explained by trends in phytoplankton composition alone, indicating a key role of photoacclimation. Phytoplankton community biomass, productivity, and production efficiency (chlorophyll‐normalized productivity) were similarly correlated to upper ocean structure and increased decadally, demonstrating a functional benefit from enhanced light availability. These physiological findings support the hypothesis that decadal trends in summer production along the peninsula are light‐dependent. Such large‐scale shifts in community pigment signature, linked to oceanographic forcing, suggest that photophysiological indices provide useful insights into how shifting climates will influence phytoplankton communities.
Impact of glacial meltwater on phytoplankton biomass along the Western Antarctic Peninsula B. Jack Pan, Michelle M. Gierach, Sharon Stammerjohn, Oscar Schofield, Michael P. Meredith, Rick A. Reynolds, Maria Vernet, F. Alexander Haumann, Alexander J. Orona, Charles E. Miller Communications Earth and Environment, 2025 The Western Antarctic Peninsula is undergoing rapid environmental change. Regional warming is causing increased glacial meltwater discharge, but the ecological impact of this meltwater over large spatiotemporal scales is not well understood. Here, we leverage 20 years of remote sensing data, reanalysis products, and field observations to assess the effects of sea surface glacial meltwater on phytoplankton biomass and highlight its importance as a key environmental driver for this region’s productive ecosystem. We find a strong correlation between meltwater and phytoplankton chlorophyll-a across multiple time scales and datasets. We attribute this relationship to nutrient fertilization by glacial meltwater, with potential additional contribution from surface ocean stabilization associated with sea-ice presence. While high phytoplankton biomass typically follows prolonged winter sea-ice seasons and depends on the interplay between light and nutrient limitation, our results indicate that the positive effects of increased glacial meltwater on phytoplankton communities likely mitigate the negative impact of sea-ice loss in this region in recent years. Our findings underscore the critical need to consider glacial meltwater as a key ecological driver in polar coastal ecosystems.
Sub-100 km Ocean Processes Revealed by Structure Functions of SWOT Sea Surface Height and In Situ Observing Network Luke Kachelein, Jinbo Wang, Andrew J. Lucas, Audrey Delpech, J. Thomas Farrar, Matthew Archer, Matthias Lankhorst, Babette C. Tchonang, Uwe Send, Scott Stalin, Jeffrey Sevadjian, Oscar Schofield Journal of Geophysical Research Oceans, 2025 The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, equipped with a Ka‐band Radar Interferometer (KaRIn), provides unprecedented sea surface height anomaly (SSHA) observations at kilometer‐scale resolution over a wide swath. Although regional studies have showcased SWOT's capabilities, its SSHA wavenumber spectra at wavelengths below 70 km exhibit shallower slopes (, where is the along‐track wavenumber) than predicted by geostrophic turbulence theory. We analyzed SWOT SSHA data alongside in situ measurements collected by the mission oceanographic campaign from the California Current System during the April–July 2023 calibration and validation (Cal/Val) period. We analyzed steric height from hourly CTD measurements on 11 moorings and 2 gliders and SWOT SSHA using structure functions, revealing that the shallow SWOT SSHA spectra at sub‐70 km scales primarily result from KaRIn instrument noise, with a notable cross‐track dependence (shallowest at the swath edges). Additionally, high‐frequency internal gravity waves also contribute to the shallow spectral slope. Because of limitations in in situ and SWOT observations, we could not quantitatively partition each individual process's contribution. Nevertheless, our results revealed, for the first time, the impact of instrument noise and high‐frequency internal waves on the SSHA spectrum at sub‐70 km that was previously unknown from conventional nadir altimeters, highlighting the complexity of small‐scale SSHA signals and the need for further research.
SWOT Mission Validation of Sea Surface Height Measurements at Sub-100 km Scales Jinbo Wang, Andrew J. Lucas, Scott Stalin, Matthias Lankhorst, Uwe Send, Oscar Schofield, Luke Kachelein, Bruce Haines, Christian Meinig, Robert Pinkel, J. Thomas Farrar, Lee‐Lueng Fu Geophysical Research Letters, 2025 After two decades of development, the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission launched on 16 December 2022, pioneering the use of Ka‐band Radar Interferometry (KaRIn) for measuring water surface elevation and achieving two‐dimensional altimetry on two 50 km swaths separated by a 20 km nadir gap. Rigorous validation against in situ observations in this study demonstrates that KaRIn achieves enough accuracy to resolve sub‐100 km oceanic processes, with measurement errors 2–4 times smaller than anticipated. These results confirm SWOT's transformative capabilities for advancing oceanographic research and establishing a robust foundation for future applications of the swath altimetry. The results also underscore the innovative advancements in mooring system design, driven by the stringent science requirements of the SWOT mission.
Seasonal Variability of Surface Ocean Carbon Uptake and Chlorophyll-a Concentration in the West Antarctic Peninsula Over Two Decades Jessica S. Turner, David R. Munro, Amanda Fay, Sharon Stammerjohn, Heather Kim, Oscar Schofield, Heidi Dierssen Geophysical Research Letters, 2025 The Southern Ocean plays a vital role in global CO2 uptake, but the magnitude and even the sign of the flux remain uncertain, and the influence of phytoplankton phenology is underexplored. This study focuses on the West Antarctic Peninsula, a region experiencing rapid climate change, to examine shifts in seasonal carbon uptake. Using 20 years of in situ air‐sea CO2 flux and satellite‐derived Chlorophyll‐a, we observe that the seasonal cycles of both air‐sea CO2 flux and Chlorophyll‐a intensify poleward. The amplitude of the seasonal cycle of the non‐thermal component of surface ocean pCO2 increases with increasing latitude, while the amplitude of the thermal component remains relatively stable. Pronounced biological uptake occurs over the shelf in austral summer despite reduced CO2 solubility in warmer waters, which typically limits carbon uptake through physical processes. These findings underscore the prominence of biological mechanisms in regulating carbon fluxes in this rapidly changing region.
Climate-driven shifts in Southern Ocean primary producers and biogeochemistry in CMIP6 models Ben J. Fisher, Alex J. Poulton, Michael P. Meredith, Kimberlee Baldry, Oscar Schofield, Sian F. Henley Biogeosciences, 2025 As a net source of nutrients fuelling global primary production, changes in Southern Ocean productivity are expected to influence biological carbon storage across the global ocean. Following a high-emission, low-mitigation pathway (SSP5-8.5), we show that primary productivity in the Antarctic zone of the Southern Ocean is predicted to increase by up to 30 % over the 21st century. The ecophysiological response of marine phytoplankton experiencing climate change will be a key determinant in understanding the impact of Southern Ocean productivity shifts on the carbon cycle. Yet, phytoplankton ecophysiology is poorly represented in Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) climate models, leading to substantial uncertainty in the representation of its role in carbon sequestration. Here we synthesise the existing spatial and temporal projections of Southern Ocean productivity from CMIP6 models, separated by phytoplankton functional type, and identify key processes where greater observational data coverage can help to improve future model performance. We find substantial variability between models in projections of light concentration (>15 000 (µE m−2 s−1)2) across much of the iron- and light-limited Antarctic zone. Projections of iron and light limitation of phytoplankton vary by up to 10 % across latitudinal zones, while the greatest increases in productivity occurs close to the coast. Temperature, pH and nutrients are less spatially variable – projections for 2090–2100 under SSP5-8.5 show zonally averaged changes of +1.6 °C and −0.45 pH units and Si* ([Si(OH)4]–[NO3-]) decreases by 8.5 µmol L−1. Diatoms and picophytoplankton and/or miscellaneous phytoplankton are equally responsible for driving productivity increases across the subantarctic and transitional zones, but picophytoplankton and miscellaneous phytoplankton increase at a greater rate than diatoms in the Antarctic zone. Despite the variability in productivity with different phytoplankton types, we show that the most complex models disagree on the ecological mechanisms behind these productivity changes. We propose that a sampling approach targeting the regions with the greatest rates of climate-driven change in ocean biogeochemistry and community assemblages would help to resolve the empirical principles underlying the phytoplankton community structure in the Southern Ocean.
Measuring Environmental Fingerprints of Deepwater Seaweed Farms with a Slocum Glider Oscar Schofield, Jessica Leonard, Brian von Herzen Oceans Conference Record IEEE, 2025 The development of offshore seaweed farms is being promoted for a range of uses spanning improving food security to potentially sequestering carbon into biomass. The rapid growth and maturing approaches for offshore farming is well documented and represents a potentially a scalable approach. A major concern is the potential environmental consequences of the farms as the overall size and productivity of the plots increases especially in coastal waters. As part of an environmental impact study, we have been conducting a series of offshore glider deployments near Cebu City (Philippines) at seaweed farms developed by the Climate Foundation (https://www.climatefoundation.org/). The goal of our effort was to 1) develop a customized glider appropriate for this mission, 2) deploy the glider and define the upstream and downstream signatures of the seaweed farm, and 3) develop a unique suite of flight behaviors to measure above and below the seaweed farm in situ.
Using Slocum Gliders with Nontraditional Flight Behaviors to Accommodate Unique Sampling Requirements Jessica Leonard, Oscar Schofield, Grace Saba, David Aragon, Alexander Lopez, Cordielyn Goodrich Oceans Conference Record IEEE, 2025 Slocum gliders are autonomous, cost-effective, long-duration systems that are now a core technology for modern global ocean observing systems. While the Slocum glider can carry many science sensors, there is a persistent challenge integrating complex sensors that have complex operating requirements such as slow equilibration and settlement times. Another technical challenge is the buoyancy engine has historically limited the ability to conduct non-traditional flight patterns (fixed depth flight) that might enable a range of options for optimizing glider applications. Alternative flight behaviors may make it easier for gliders to better accommodate sensors with unique requirements and additionally allow for operations in urbanized waters with complex subsurface obstructions. In this work, we present the use of “hover” missions to sample fixed depth events within the water column using software controls within the Slocum glider software (v10.08). Our goal was to demonstrate hover behavior at a specified depth using autonomous ballast adjustments to provide a detailed picture of various physical, chemical, and biological properties in the water column. This behavior allows for controlled movements around obstacles often found in urbanized waters as well as sampling within tight thermoclines at depth. We present a series of field trials within a deep-water floating seaweed farm as well as in near-coastal waters in the Mid-Atlantic Bight demonstrating the ability to hover at fixed depths and detect localized events not easy to document with traditional glider flight behaviors.
