Overview:

The overarching question of this research initiative is: How will the Antarctic / Southern Ocean environment and ecosystem change over the 21st Century and beyond? To help answer this question, AntarcticClimate21 approaches this topic via two principle aspirations: to improve projections on how the Antarctic / Southern Ocean environment and ecosystem will change over 100-200 years; and to increase accessibility of model projection results to the wider science community. 

This paper summarises the deliverables and milestones, and future plans of AntarcticClimate²¹. Appendices include a Membership list.
