Research gap analysis derived from 2 earth_science papers in our local library.

The gap

Long-term observations are required to disentangle complex interactions between tropical SST anomalies and Antarctic fast ice and validate the proposed mechanisms.; The study focused on remote forcing of tropical and subtropical SSTs on Antarctic fast ice but acknowledges that direct oceanic forcing is local and includes both dynamic factors (currents, tidal effects, and swell) and thermodynamic factors (basal melt) that warrant further investigation.; Constraining the timing and extent of...
