Origin of Circumpolar Deep Water intruding onto the Amundsen and Bellingshausen Sea continental shelves

Upwelling circumpolar deep water (CDW) is destabilising West Antarctic ice shelves, yet offshore pathways and drivers remain unclear. Here, using a regional circulation model, the authors show that pathways are controlled by large-scale atmospheric and ocean circulations.
