Abstract
The West Antarctic Peninsula has experienced rapid warming in recent decades. One of the effects has been a loss of the ‘fast-ice’ skin, or frozen layer, that forms on the sea surface each winter and reduces seabed scouring. A study now links increased seabed scouring over the past 25 years to higher benthic mortality, with implications for the region’s biodiversity.
