Cetacean strandings from space: Challenges and opportunities of very high resolution satellites for the remote monitoring of cetacean mass strandings
Read more of: Cetacean strandings from space: Challenges and opportunities of very high resolution satellites for the remote monitoring of cetacean mass strandingsThe study of cetacean strandings was globally recognised as a priority topic at the 2019 World Marine Mammal Conference, in recognition of its importance for understanding the threats to cetacean […]

Evidence of recent active volcanism in the Balleny Islands (Antarctica) from ice core records
Read more of: Evidence of recent active volcanism in the Balleny Islands (Antarctica) from ice core recordsVolcanism can play a key role in modulating climate, however, a lack of historical records has limited our comprehension of Antarctic volcanism and its role on the cryosphere. Remote sensing […]

On the variability of EMIC waves and the consequences for the relativistic electron radiation belt population
Read more of: On the variability of EMIC waves and the consequences for the relativistic electron radiation belt populationThe interactions between electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves and relativistic electrons are influential in diffusing radiation belt electrons into the loss code from which the electrons are lost into the […]

Environmental harshness mediates the relationship between aboveground and belowground communities in Antarctica
Read more of: Environmental harshness mediates the relationship between aboveground and belowground communities in AntarcticaLinkages between aboveground and belowground communities are a key but globally under-researched component of responses to environmental change. Given the logistical complications to studying these relationships, much of our knowledge […]

Mathematical modelling of canola oil biodegradation and optimisation of biosurfactant production by an Antarctic bacterial consortium using response surface methodology
Read more of: Mathematical modelling of canola oil biodegradation and optimisation of biosurfactant production by an Antarctic bacterial consortium using response surface methodologyAn Antarctic soil bacterial consortium (reference BS14) was confirmed to biodegrade canola oil, and kinetic studies on this biodegradation were carried out. The purpose of this study was to examine […]

Regional disparities and seasonal differences in climate risk to rice labour
Read more of: Regional disparities and seasonal differences in climate risk to rice labourThe 880 million agricultural workers of the world are especially vulnerable to increasing heat stress due to climate change, affecting the health of individuals and reducing labour productivity. In this […]

A test of the win-stay–lose-shift foraging strategy and its adaptive value in albatrosses
Read more of: A test of the win-stay–lose-shift foraging strategy and its adaptive value in albatrossesForaging site selection and site fidelity can have implications for many ecological processes. The degree of site fidelity differs greatly not just between species but also within populations. Some of […]

Interannual Variation of Modified Circumpolar Deep Water in the Dotson-Getz Trough, West Antarctica
Read more of: Interannual Variation of Modified Circumpolar Deep Water in the Dotson-Getz Trough, West AntarcticaWidespread ice shelf thinning has been recorded in the Amundsen Sea in recent decades, driven by basal melting and intrusions of relatively warm Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) onto the continental […]

[Comment] New zircon radiometric U-Pb ages and Lu-Hf isotopic data from the ultramafic-mafic sequences of Ranau and Telupid (Sabah, eastern Malaysia): Time to reconsider the geological evolution of Southeast Asia?
Read more of: [Comment] New zircon radiometric U-Pb ages and Lu-Hf isotopic data from the ultramafic-mafic sequences of Ranau and Telupid (Sabah, eastern Malaysia): Time to reconsider the geological evolution of Southeast Asia?Tsikouras et al. (2021) interpret Miocene zircon U-Pb ages from ophiolitic rocks in Sabah, Malaysia, as magmatic ages related to southwest propagation of Sulu Sea spreading into onshore Borneo, even […]

Gateway-driven weakening of ocean gyres leads to Southern Ocean cooling
Read more of: Gateway-driven weakening of ocean gyres leads to Southern Ocean coolingDeclining atmospheric CO2 concentrations are considered the primary driver for the Cenozoic Greenhouse-Icehouse transition, ~34 million years ago. A role for tectonically opening Southern Ocean gateways, initiating the onset of […]

Effects of competitive pressure and habitat heterogeneity on niche partitioning between Arctic and boreal congeners
Read more of: Effects of competitive pressure and habitat heterogeneity on niche partitioning between Arctic and boreal congenersThe rapidly changing climate in the Arctic is expected to have a major impact on the foraging ecology of seabirds, owing to changes in the distribution and abundance of their […]
