The magnitude of annual primary production in polynyas is controlled by the amount of exposure to solar radiation and sensitivity to changes in sea-ice extent. The degree of coupling between primary production and production by upper trophic-level consumers in these environments is not well understood, which prevents reliable predictions about population trajectories for species at higher trophic levels under potential future climate scenarios. In this study, we find a strong, positive relationship between annual primary production in an Antarctic polynya and pup production by ice-dependent Weddell seals. The timing of the relationship suggests reproductive effort increases to take advantage of high primary production occurring in the months after the birth pulse. Though the proximate causal mechanism is unknown, our results indicate tight coupli...

The observations include 30 years of surface meteorological and sea surface temperature data collected at OWS P and Ekman upwelling velocities derived from the Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set, 14 years (1953-1966) of

The study area contained three distinct phytoplankton blooms, distinguishable by species composition. The largest in area was located to the north of the Ross Ice Shelf and was dominated by the
