Switch-off of a major enhanced ice flow unit in East Antarctica
The East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) is the largest reservoir of ice on the planet by an order of magnitude. Compared with the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS), it is […]

The atmospheric implications of radiation belt remediation
Read more of: The atmospheric implications of radiation belt remediationHigh altitude nuclear explosions (HANEs) and geomagnetic storms can produce large scale injections of relativistic particles into the inner radiation belts. It is recognised that these large increases in >1 […]

From cradle to early grave: juvenile mortality in European shags Phalacrocorax aristotelis results from inadequate development of foraging proficiency
Read more of: From cradle to early grave: juvenile mortality in European shags Phalacrocorax aristotelis results from inadequate development of foraging proficiencyIn most long-lived animal species, juveniles survive less well than adults. A potential mechanism is inferior foraging skills but longitudinal studies that follow the development of juvenile foraging are needed […]

Growth rate and its variability in erect Antarctic bryozoans
Read more of: Growth rate and its variability in erect Antarctic bryozoansClimate is altering rapidly in parts of the Arctic and Antarctic but we know little about how marine organisms are responding to, or might respond to such changes. Knowledge of […]

A new species of Pareledone (Cephalopoda: Octopodidae) from Antarctic Peninsula Waters
Read more of: A new species of Pareledone (Cephalopoda: Octopodidae) from Antarctic Peninsula WatersDuring recent cruises aboard RV Polarstern in the Antarctic Peninsula region, a new species of benthic octopodid was discovered whose generic affinities based on morphological characteristics were uncertain. Molecular sequence […]

Acceleration mechanism responsible for the formation of the new radiation belt during the 2003 Halloween solar storm
Read more of: Acceleration mechanism responsible for the formation of the new radiation belt during the 2003 Halloween solar stormObservations of the relativistic electron flux increases during the first days of November, 2003 are compared to model simulations of two leading mechanisms for electron acceleration. It is demonstrated that […]

Review on the distribution and biology of Antarctic Monoplacophora, with first abyssal record of Laevipilina antarctica
Read more of: Review on the distribution and biology of Antarctic Monoplacophora, with first abyssal record of Laevipilina antarcticaRecords of extant Monoplacophora are still scarce, often limited to single specimens or empty shells. Little is known about monoplacophoran diversity, distribution and biology. This study summarizes the present distributional […]

Protozoans as a food source for Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba: complementary insights from stomach content, fatty acids, and stable isotopes
Read more of: Protozoans as a food source for Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba: complementary insights from stomach content, fatty acids, and stable isotopesWe studied the diet of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, at five stations across the southwest Atlantic sector in summer 2003 by analyzing stomach content, fatty acids, and stable isotopes on […]

Modelling in molecular biology: describing transcription regulatory networks at different scales
Read more of: Modelling in molecular biology: describing transcription regulatory networks at different scalesApproaches to describe gene regulation networks can be categorized by increasing detail, as network parts lists, network topology models, network control logic models or dynamic models. We discuss the current […]
