We figured out a cheap-ish way to make ocean models create Dense Shelf Waters (DSW) on the surface of the Antarctic continental shelf! How?
Fast answer: Ocean surface cells thinner than 1 m!

Antarctic Dense Water Formation Sensitivity to Ocean Surface Cell Thickness
The ability of ocean models with depth coordinates to form Antarctic Dense Shelf Water (DSW) depends on their surface vertical resolution
Deeper surface cells shift the direction of surface Ekman...

🚨 New paper alert 🚨
We developed the new PanAntarctic model and assessed the sensitivity of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) formation and export to horizontal model resolutions of 1/10°, 1/20° and 1/40°.
