1. Robust model-based indicators of regional differences in food-web structure in the Southern Ocean

   Efforts to model marine food-webs are generally undertaken by small teams working separately on specific regions (

2. Local- and large-scale drivers of variability in the coastal freshwater budget of the Western Antarctic Peninsula

   The west Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) is a region of marked climatic variability, exhibiting strong changes in sea ice extent, retreat of most of its glaciers, and shifts in the amount […]

3. Microplastics and other anthropogenic particles in Antarctica: using penguins as biological samplers

   Microplastics (< 5mm in size) is known to be widespread in the marine environment, but it is still poorly studied in Polar Regions, particularly in the Antarctic. As penguins have […]

4. Health and sustainability of glaciers in High Mountain Asia

   Glaciers in High Mountain Asia generate meltwater that supports the water needs of 250 million people, but current knowledge of annual accumulation and ablation is limited to sparse field measurements […]

5. Ecosystem services in Antarctica: Global assessment of the current state, future challenges and managing opportunities

   Antarctic ecosystem services are rich and diverse and include global climate modulation, biodiversity and habitat protection, cultural heritage, scientific knowledge, education and recreation as well as the extraction of marine […]

6. Comparing glacial‐geological evidence and model simulations of ice sheet change since the last glacial period in the Amundsen Sea sector of Antarctica

   Since the Last Glacial Maximum ∼20,000 years ago, the Antarctic Ice Sheet has undergone extensive changes, resulting in a much smaller present‐day configuration. Improving our understanding of basic physical processes […]

7. Responses of Southern Ocean seafloor habitats and communities to global and local drivers of change

   Knowledge of life on the Southern Ocean seafloor has substantially grown since the beginning of this century with increasing ship-based surveys and regular monitoring sites, new technologies and greatly enhanced […]

8. Early and middle Miocene ice sheet dynamics in the Ross Sea: Results from integrated core-log-seismic interpretation

   Oscillations in ice sheet extent during early and middle Miocene are intermittently preserved in the sedimentary record from the Antarctic continental shelf, with widespread erosion occurring during major ice sheet […]

9. Stratospheric carbon isotope fractionation and tropospheric histories of CFC-11, CFC-12, and CFC-113 isotopologues.

   We present novel measurements of the carbon isotope composition of CFC-11 (CCl3F), CFC-12 (CCl2F2), and CFC-113 (CF2ClCFCl2), three atmospheric trace gases that are important for both stratospheric ozone depletion and […]

10. Foraging conditions for breeding penguins improve with distance from colony and progression of the breeding season at the South Orkney Islands

    According to central place foraging theory, animals will only increase the distance of their foraging trips if more distant prey patches offer better foraging opportunities. Thus, theory predicts that breeding […]

11. Development of a clean hot water drill to access Subglacial Lake CECs, West Antarctica

    Recent drilling successes on Rutford Ice Stream in West Antarctica demonstrate the viability of hot water drilling subglacial access holes to depths >2000 m. Having techniques to access deep subglacial […]

12. Latitudinal patterns in intertidal ecosystem structure in West Greenland suggest resilience to climate change

    Climate change has ecosystem‐wide cascading effects. Little is known, however, about the resilience of Arctic marine ecosystems to environmental change. Here we quantify and compare large‐scale patterns in rocky intertidal […]
