abstract = "Air-sea and air-sea-ice fluxes in the Southern Ocean play a
critical role in global climate through their impact on the
overturning circulation and oceanic heat and carbon uptake. The
challenging conditions in the Southern Ocean have led to sparse
spatial and temporal coverage of observations. This has led to a
{"}knowledge gap{"} that increases uncertainty in atmosphere and
ocean dynamics and boundary-layer thermodynamic processes,
impeding improvements in weather and climate models. Improvements
will require both process-based research to understand the
mechanisms governing air-sea exchange and a significant expansion
of the observing system. This will improve flux parameterizations
and reduce uncertainty associated with bulk formulae and satellite
observations. Improved estimates spanning the full Southern Ocean
will need to take advantage of ships, surface moorings, and the
growing capabilities of autonomous platforms with robust and
miniaturized sensors. A key challenge is to identify observing
system sampling requirements. This requires models, Observing
System Simulation Experiments (OSSEs), and assessments of the
specific spatial-temporal accuracy and resolution required for
priority science and assessment of observational uncertainties of
the mean state and direct flux measurements. Year-round,
high-quality, quasi-continuous in situ flux measurements and
observations of extreme events are needed to validate, improve and
characterize uncertainties in blended reanalysis products and
satellite data as well as to improve parameterizations. Building a
robust observing system will require community consensus on
observational methodologies, observational priorities, and
effective strategies for data management and discovery.",
