While the region is known for deep midlatitude cyclones, it is the accompanying fields of marine boundary layer (MBL) clouds that seem to be critical to understanding the radiative energy balance of this region (Bodas-Salcedo et al., 2012, 2014, 2016, 2019). Inspired by Trenberth and Fasullo (2010), who showed a high bias in surface-absorbed solar energy by models, studies have increasingly focused on the ubiquity of supercooled liquid water in SO clouds. Simulations of these clouds too aggressively reduce cloud cover through ice phase precipitation processes (Frey & Kay, 2017; Vergara-Temprado et al., 2018). Recent modeling studies have mitigated this bias through various means and have shown the climate system's sensitivity to these SO MBL clouds (Kay et al., 2016; Tan et al., 2016). How the properties of liquid phase clouds-especially supercooled liquid phase clouds-vary across the SO remains an important topic. While the meteorology of the SO is predictable, variations in factors that control the local and regional aerosol properties differ considerably from regions north of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) to the marginal seas along the Antarctic (Armour et al., 2016; Fossum et al., 2018). While seasonally varying sea surface temperatures and sea ice contribute to the cloud variability (Huang et al., 2016), the Antarctic Circumpolar Current essentially divides the SO into lower latitude temperate and high latitude oceans. Especially in the high latitude SO, seasonal biological productivity results in
