Temperature alters the size selectivity of Southern Ocean fish
A primary response of many marine ectotherms to warming is a reduction in body size, to lower the metabolic costs associated with higher temperatures. The impact of such changes on […]

Evaluating Existing Ocean Glider Sampling Strategies for Submesoscale Dynamics
Read more of: Evaluating Existing Ocean Glider Sampling Strategies for Submesoscale DynamicsMixing in the upper ocean is important for biological production and the transfer of heat and carbon between the atmosphere and deep ocean, properties commonly targeted by observational campaigns using […]

Using a common morphometric-based method to sex a migratory bird along its entire flyway despite geographical and temporal variations in body size and sexual size dimorphism
Read more of: Using a common morphometric-based method to sex a migratory bird along its entire flyway despite geographical and temporal variations in body size and sexual size dimorphismSexing bird species with monomorphic plumage is generally challenging, and sexual size dimorphism (SSD) is often used to develop morphometric-based sexing tools, e.g., using discriminant functions. Within species, local selection […]

Seafloor geomorphology of the Wrigley Gulf shelf, Amundsen Sea, West Antarctica, reveals two different phases of glaciation
Read more of: Seafloor geomorphology of the Wrigley Gulf shelf, Amundsen Sea, West Antarctica, reveals two different phases of glaciationKnowledge of the behaviour of marine-based ice sheets during times of climatic warming, such as the last deglaciation, provides important information to understand how ice sheets respond to external forcing. […]

Decadal variability of ice-shelf melting in the Amundsen Sea driven by sea-ice freshwater fluxes
Read more of: Decadal variability of ice-shelf melting in the Amundsen Sea driven by sea-ice freshwater fluxesThe ice streams flowing into the Amundsen Sea, West Antarctica, are losing mass due to changes in oceanic basal melting of their floating ice shelves. Rapid ice-shelf melting is sustained […]

A comparative study of tissue protein synthesis rates in an Antarctic, Harpagifer antarcticus and a temperate, Lipophrys pholis teleost
Read more of: A comparative study of tissue protein synthesis rates in an Antarctic, Harpagifer antarcticus and a temperate, Lipophrys pholis teleostThe affect of temperature on tissue protein synthesis rates has been reported in temperate and tropical, but not Antarctic fishes. Previous studies have generally demonstrated low growth rates in Antarctic […]

Turbulence-induced droplet grouping and augmented rain formation in cumulus clouds
Read more of: Turbulence-induced droplet grouping and augmented rain formation in cumulus cloudsThis paper provides the first observational analysis of how droplet separation is impacted by the flinging action of microscale vortices in turbulent clouds over a select radii range and how […]

Gravity waves generated by the Hunga Tonga–Hunga Ha’apai volcanic eruption and their global propagation in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere observed by meteor radars and modeled with the High-Altitude general Mechanistic Circulation Model
Read more of: Gravity waves generated by the Hunga Tonga–Hunga Ha’apai volcanic eruption and their global propagation in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere observed by meteor radars and modeled with the High-Altitude general Mechanistic Circulation ModelThe Hunga Tonga–Hunga Ha′apai volcano erupted on 15 January 2022, launching Lamb waves and gravity waves into the atmosphere. In this study, we present results using 13 globally distributed meteor […]

Extensive palaeo-surfaces beneath the Evans–Rutford region of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet control modern and past ice flow
Read more of: Extensive palaeo-surfaces beneath the Evans–Rutford region of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet control modern and past ice flowThe subglacial landscape of Antarctica records and influences the behaviour of its overlying ice sheet. However, in many places, the evolution of the landscape and its control on ice sheet […]

A new instrumental way to measure accumulating SWE in mountain and polar catchments directly, on the kilometre-scale and in near-real time
Read more of: A new instrumental way to measure accumulating SWE in mountain and polar catchments directly, on the kilometre-scale and in near-real timeThe Snow Water Equivalent (SWE) of snowfall is important but difficult to measure. While numerous techniques have been developed, measurements are still too sparse, too poorly distributed, too infrequent, too […]
