1. Egg development, hatching rhythm and moult patterns in Paralomis spinosissima (Decapoda: Anomura: Paguroidea: Lithodidae) from South Georgia waters (Southern Ocean)

   Larval release, hatching rhythms and moult patterns were examined in a captive population of the subantarctic lithodid, Paralomis spinosissima from the South Georgia and Shag Rocks region. Larvae hatched throughout […]

2. Is the attempt to estimate the biomass of Antarctic fish from a multi-species survey appropriate for all targeted species’ Notothenia rossii in the Atlantic Ocean sector – revisited

   Notothenia rossii was the first target species in Southern Ocean fisheries. The species was already heavily fished at the beginning of the 1970s. The closure of the fishery for this […]

3. The biology of the bigeye grenadier at South Georgia

   The biology of the bigeye grenadier Macrourus holotrachys caught as by-catch in the Patagonian toothfish Dissostichus eleginoides longline fishery conducted around South Georgia was investigated to improve data available for […]

4. Otolith and body size relationships in bigeye grenadier (Macrourus holotrachys) in CCAMLR Subarea 48.3

   A large sample of otoliths from bigeye grenadier (Macrourus holotrachys) caught as by-catch in the Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) fishery in Subarea 48.3 was measured and weighed, and the usefulness […]

5. Significant intra-annual variability in krill distribution and abundance at South Georgia revealed by multiple acoustic surveys during 2000/01

   Three separate acoustic surveys of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) were conducted around South Georgia in the 2000/01 season: in October 2000 (early-season); during late December/early January 2000/01 (mid-season), and in […]

6. Extensive dynamic thinning on the margins of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets

   Many glaciers along the margins of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are accelerating and, for this reason, contribute increasingly to global sea-level rise(1-7). Globally, ice losses contribute similar to […]

7. Optimal estimation of changes in the mass of ice sheets

   We describe a new approach for estimating changes in ice sheet mass. Two methods are in common use: the ice budget and geodetic methods. The first makes use of separate […]

9. A step-change in the date of sea-ice breakup in western Hudson Bay

   Over the last four decades there has been a trend to earlier summer breakup of the sea ice in western Hudson Bay, Canada. This sea ice is critical for the […]

10. The role of sea ice formation in cycling of aluminium in northern Marguerite Bay, Antarctica

    The use of dissolved Al as a tracer for oceanic water masses and atmospheric dust deposition of biologically important elements, such as iron, requires the quantitative assessment of its sources […]

11. Soil fungal community composition at Mars Oasis, a southern maritime Antarctic site

    PCR amplification of ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 regions of rDNA followed by cloning was used to determine the fungi present in soil from three sites at Mars Oasis in the southern maritime Antarctic. […]

12. Theory and observations of Ekman flux in the chlorophyll distribution downstream of South Georgia.

    A large phytoplankton bloom occurs downstream of South Georgia, an island on the northern edge of the Scotia Sea, Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean. This is due to natural […]
