“…Interseasonal thermodynamic feedback are also apparent in all regions. These considerations underline the complexity of climate processes and suggest that caution must be employed when interpreting the results of the many studies that link sea ice extent in any given region or season to local forcings [e.g., Holland and Kwok, 2012;Holland, 2014;Li et al, 2014;Kwok et al, 2016;Meehl et al, 2016].…”

“…Around West Antarctica, the transport of sea ice is dominated by the dynamic response to a climatological quasi-stationary low pressure referred to as the Amundsen Sea Low (ASL) [Holland and Kwok, 2012;Hosking et al, 2013;Meehl et al, 2016;Raphael et al, 2016]. This sector is also where robust teleconnections to tropical climate variability occur [Ding et al, 2011;Schneider et al, 2012;Li et al, 2014]. In particular, the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) has been strongly linked to changes in sea ice concentration in this region [e.g., Kwok and Comiso, 2002;Stammerjohn et al, 2008;Matear et al, 2015;Kwok et al, 2016] and in other regions within the Southern Ocean [Yuan and Martinson, 2001;Holland et al, 2005].…”

“…During the El Niño (La Niña) phase of the El Niño Southern Oscillation, MSLP values in the region of the ASL are higher (lower) [26], which influences the wind field and therefore the sea ice distribution between the Antarctic Peninsula and the Ross Sea. Trends in sea surface temperatures (SSTs) across the Atlantic Ocean have also recently been linked to MSLP and sea ice changes in this sector [27].…”

“…This reduction is likely due to changes in wind patterns that have also caused increases in ice cover elsewhere around Antarctica [Holland and Kwok, 2012]. The changes in the local wind forcing have been linked to the Southern Annular Mode (SAM), El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO), and to the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation [Marshall, 2003;Stammerjohn et al, 2008b;Turner et al, 2009;Li et al, 2014].…”
