1. The European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica

   Ice cores have provided many of the key pieces of evidence about past changes in climate and in forcing factors for climate. In particular, the core from Vostok (Antarctica) shows […]

2. Signal variability in replicate ice cores

   Replicate ice cores have been drilled about 10 m apart for the top 790 m of the ice sheet at Dome C, Antarctica. This provides an opportunity to examine inter-core […]

3. Modeling past atmospheric CO2: results of a challenge

   The models and concepts used to predict future climate are based on physical laws and information obtained from observations of the past. New paleoclimate records are crucial for a test […]

4. Factors that influence freezing in the sub-Antarctic springtail Tullbergia antarctica

   Effects of 12 biotic and abiotic factors on the freezing point of the sub-Antarctic springtail, Tullbergia antarctica, were investigated. Repeated cooling of individual springtails five times resulted in very similar […]

5. Boluses: an effective method for assessing the proportions of cephalopods in the diet of albatrosses

   The method of collecting and analyzing boluses to characterize the cephalopod diet of albatrosses has been used in many diet studies. However, no study has validated this method. We compared […]

6. Numerical simulations of katabatic jumps in coats land, Antartica

   A non-hydrostatic numerical model, the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS), has been used to investigate the development of katabatic jumps in Coats Land, Antarctica. In the control run with a […]

7. Provenance and magmatic-metamorphic evolution of a Variscan island-arc complex: constraints from U-Pb dating, petrology, and geospeedometry of the Kyffhauser crystalline complex, central Germany

   The Kyffhäuser Crystalline Complex, Central Germany, forms part of the Mid-German Crystalline Rise, which is assumed to represent the Variscan collision zone between the East Avalonian terrane and the Armorican […]

8. Climatically driven fluctuations in Southern Ocean ecosystems

   Determining how climate fluctuations affect ocean ecosystems requires an understanding of how biological and physical processes interact across a wide range of scales. Here we examine the role of physical […]

9. Tardigrade fauna of the South Sandwich Islands, maritime Antarctic

   The maritime Antarctic South Sandwich Islands are an isolated oceanic archipelago of volcanic origin lying between 56º18’S, 27º34’W and 59º27’S, 27º22’W. All the islands are of recent origin (maximum ages […]

10. The International Trans-Antarctic Scientific Expedition (ITASE): an overview

    From its original formulation in 1990 the International Trans-Antarctic Scientific Expedition (ITASE) has had as its primary aim the collection and interpretation of a continent-wide array of environmental parameters assembled […]

11. Rapid climate change in the ocean west of the Antarctic Peninsula during the second half of the 20th century

    The climate of the Western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) is the most rapidly changing in the Southern Hemisphere, with a rise in atmospheric temperature of nearly 3°C since 1951 and associated […]

12. Variability in hydrographic conditions to the east and northwest of South Georgia, 1996–2001

    Six years of high-resolution hydrographic data from the eastern and northwestern sides of South Georgia (southwest Atlantic) are used to study the changing circulation and water mass properties of the […]
