Evolution and biodiversity of Antarctic organisms: a molecular perspective
Read more of: Evolution and biodiversity of Antarctic organisms: a molecular perspectiveThe Antarctic biota is highly endemic, and the diversity and abundance of taxonomic groups differ from elsewhere in the world. Such characteristics have resulted from evolution in isolation in an […]

Monitoring and management in the Antarctic – making the link between science and policy
Read more of: Monitoring and management in the Antarctic – making the link between science and policyManagement of human impacts in the Antarctic requires an effective system of monitoring to provide information about the process being managed and the effectiveness of management actions. Human impacts arise […]

Widespread acceleration of tidewater glaciers on the Antarctic Peninsula
Read more of: Widespread acceleration of tidewater glaciers on the Antarctic PeninsulaOver the last half century, the Antarctic Peninsula (AP) has been among the most rapidly warming regions on Earth. This has led to increased summer snowmelt, loss of ice shelves, […]

Phytoplankton community composition around the Crozet Plateau, with emphasis on diatoms and Phaeocystis
Read more of: Phytoplankton community composition around the Crozet Plateau, with emphasis on diatoms and PhaeocystisPhytoplankton community composition has important implications for upper-ocean biogeochemistry and export production. The species composition of the phytoplankton community (diatoms, Phaeocystis antarctica) was examined around the Crozet Plateau (Southern Ocean) […]

Thermal limits and adaptation in marine Antarctic ectotherms: an integrative view
Read more of: Thermal limits and adaptation in marine Antarctic ectotherms: an integrative viewA cause and effect understanding of thermal limitation and adaptation at various levels of biological organization is crucial in the elaboration of how the Antarctic climate has shaped the functional […]
