Simulating dimethylsulphide seasonality with the Dynamic Green Ocean Model PlankTOM5
Read more of: Simulating dimethylsulphide seasonality with the Dynamic Green Ocean Model PlankTOM5We study the dynamics of dimethylsulphide (DMS) and dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) using the global ocean biogeochemistry model PlankTOM5, which includes three phytoplankton and two zooplankton functional types (PFTs). We present a […]

Early larval development of the Sydney rock oyster Saccostrea glomerata under near-future predictions of CO2-driven ocean acidification
Read more of: Early larval development of the Sydney rock oyster Saccostrea glomerata under near-future predictions of CO2-driven ocean acidificationAnthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) from fossil fuel combustion and deforestation are rapidly increasing the atmospheric concentration of CO2 and reducing the pH of the oceans. This study shows […]

Long-term variability in the abundance of Antarctic fur seals Arctocephalus gazella at Signy Island, South Orkneys
Read more of: Long-term variability in the abundance of Antarctic fur seals Arctocephalus gazella at Signy Island, South OrkneysThe number of Antarctic fur seals Arctocephalus gazella hauled out at Signy Island in the South Orkneys was monitored annually between 1977 and 2008. Over the study period seal abundance […]

Phytoplankton and light limitation in the Southern Ocean: Learning from high-nutrient high-chlorophyll areas
Read more of: Phytoplankton and light limitation in the Southern Ocean: Learning from high-nutrient high-chlorophyll areasMost of the Southern Ocean is a high-nutrient, low-chlorophyll (HNLC) area. There are exceptions to this situation downstream of some of the islands, where iron from the islands or surrounding […]

Transcription profiling of acute temperature stress in the Antarctic plunderfish Harpagifer antarcticus
Read more of: Transcription profiling of acute temperature stress in the Antarctic plunderfish Harpagifer antarcticusHarpagifer antarcticus (the Antarctic plunderfish), a shallow-water benthic fish distributed around the Antarctic Peninsula, is a member of the notothenioid family, one of whose adaptations to the cold waters of […]

Modelling the impact of ocean warming on melting and water masses of ice shelves in the Eastern Weddell Sea
Read more of: Modelling the impact of ocean warming on melting and water masses of ice shelves in the Eastern Weddell SeaThe Eastern Weddell Ice Shelves (EWIS) are believed to modify the water masses of the coastal current and thus preconditions the water mass formation in the southern and western Weddell […]

A comment on the Equation of State and the freezing point equation with respect to subglacial lake modelling
Read more of: A comment on the Equation of State and the freezing point equation with respect to subglacial lake modellingThe empirical Equation of State (EOS) allows the calculation of the density of water in dependence of salinity, temperature, and pressure. Water density is an important quantity to determine the […]

Speciation and phylogeography of giant petrels Macronectes
Read more of: Speciation and phylogeography of giant petrels MacronectesWe examine global phylogeography of the two forms of giant petrel Macronectes spp. Although previously considered to be a single taxon, and despite debate over the status of some populations […]

A horizon scan of global conservation issues for 2010
Read more of: A horizon scan of global conservation issues for 2010Horizon scanning identifies emerging issues in a given field sufficiently early to conduct research to inform policy and practice. Our group of horizon scanners, including academics and researchers, convened to […]

The flow of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current over the North Scotia Ridge
Read more of: The flow of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current over the North Scotia RidgeThe transports associated with the Subantarctic Front (SAF) and the Polar Front (PF) account for the majority of the volume transport of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC). After passing through […]
