Short summary
The Southern Ocean helps regulate Earth’s climate by cycling nutrients and carbon. We studied how well 14 modern climate models represent key ocean properties, such as plant growth, nutrients, and carbon particles. By comparing model results with real-world observations, we found large differences in model performance. Some models captured certain features better than others. Our findings can guide future improvements in ocean and climate predictions.
