1. High altitude Antarctic soil propagule bank yields an exotic moss and potential colonist

   Soil samples from the summit of Coulman Island in northern Victoria Land, continental Antarctica (lat. 73o28’S, 169o45’E) were cultured and after nine weeks they have yeilded sterile shoots of a […]

2. Mitigation of seabird mortality on factory trawlers: trials of three devices to reduce warp cable strikes

   Experimental trials were conducted onboard a stern trawler to identify the relative efficacy of three emerging mitigation measures (tori lines, warp scarer and Brady baffler) designed to reduce seabird mortality […]

3. Organochlorine contaminant and retinoid levels in blubber of common dolphins (Delphinus delphis) off northwestern Spain

   The effect of age, sex, nutritive condition and organochlorine concentration on blubber retinoid concentrations was examined in 74 common dolphins incidentally caught off northwestern Spain. Age and blubber lipid content […]

4. Sewage effects on food sources and diet of benthic foraminifera living in oxic sediment: a microcosm experiment

   A microcosm experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of sewage-derived particulate organic matter (POM) on the food sources and diets of two species of intertidal benthic foraminifera, Ammonia beccarii […]

6. Biogeographical distribution and ecological ranges of benthic cyanobacteria in East Antarctic lakes

   For the first time, the cyanobacterial diversity from microbial mats in lakes of Eastern Antarctica was investigated using microscopic and molecular approaches. The present study assessed the biogeographical distribution of […]

7. Natural growth rates in Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba): I. Improving methodology and predicting intermolt period

   The growth rates of postlarval krill (Euphausia superba) were measured across a wide range of environments in the Scotia Sea and around South Georgia using the Instantaneous Growth Rate (IGR) […]

9. Remotely sensed mesoscale oceanography of the central Eastern Pacific and recruitment variability in Dosidicus gigas

   ABSTRACT: The Jumbo flying squid Dosidicus gigas has a short life span and is subject to rapid changes in population size. This species inhabits the Eastern Pacific, one of the […]

10. Ecological contrasts across an Antarctic land-sea interface

    We report the composition of terrestrial, intertidal and shallow sublittoral faunal communities at sites around Rothera Research Station, Adelaide Island, Antarctic Peninsula. We examined primary hypotheses that the marine environment […]

11. SAOZ measurements of stratospheric NO2 at Aberystwyth

    ——————————————————————————– We present in this paper fifteen years measurements, from March 1991 to September 2005, of stratospheric NO2 vertical columns measured by a SAOZ zenith-sky visible spectrometer. The instrument spent […]

12. New boundary conditions for the West Antarctic ice sheet: subglacial topography beneath Thwaites and Smith glaciers catchments

    Airborne radar sounding over the Thwaites Glacier (TG) catchment and its surroundings provides the first comprehensive view of subglacial topography in this dynamic part of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet […]
