1. Mercury biomagnification in a Southern Ocean food web

   Biomagnification of mercury (Hg) in the Scotia Sea food web of the Southern Ocean was examined using the stable isotope ratios of nitrogen (δ15N) and carbon (δ13C) as proxies for […]

2. A revised interpretation of the Chon Aike magmatic province: Active margin origin and implications for the opening of the Weddell Sea

   Late Triassic – Jurassic igneous rocks of the Antarctic Peninsula and Patagonia provide evidence for the evolution of the margin of southwestern Gondwana. We present new geochronological (LAICP-MS zircon U-Pb […]

3. In-situ image analysis of habitat heterogeneity and benthic biodiversity in the Prince Gustav Channel, Eastern Antarctic Peninsula.

   Habitat heterogeneity is important for maintaining high levels of benthic biodiversity. The Prince Gustav Channel, on the Eastern Antarctic Peninsula, is characterized by an array of habitat types, ranging from […]

4. Development of space weather reasonable worst case scenarios for the UK National Risk Assessment

   Severe space weather was identified as a risk to the UK in 2010 as part of a wider review of natural hazards triggered by the societal disruption caused by the […]

5. Evidence for strong environmental control on bacterial microbiomes of Antarctic springtails

   Collembola are a key component of the soil biota globally, playing an important role in community and ecosystem dynamics. Equally significant are their associated microbiomes, that can contribute to key […]

6. Perspective: Geological Society of London Scientific Statement: What the geological record tells us about our present and future climate

   Executive Statement: Geology is the science of how the Earth functions and has evolved and, as such, it can contribute to our understanding of the climate system and how it […]

7. Abrupt changes in the global carbon cycle during the last glacial period

   During the last glacial period, atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) closely followed Antarctic temperature on millennial timescales. This strong correlation between Antarctic climate and atmospheric CO2 has led to suggestions that […]

8. A review and meta-analysis of potential impacts of ocean acidification on marine calcifiers from the Southern Ocean

   Understanding the vulnerability of marine calcifiers to ocean acidification is a critical issue, especially in the Southern Ocean (SO), which is likely to be the one of the first, and […]

9. Downhole distributed acoustic seismic profiling at Skytrain Ice Rise, West Antarctica

   Antarctic ice sheet history is imprinted in the structure and fabric of the ice column. At ice rises, the signature of ice flow history is preserved due to the low […]

10. Glacial change and hydrological implications in the Himalaya and Karakoram

    Glaciers in the Himalaya–Karakoram mountain ranges harbour approximately half of the ice volume in High-mountain Asia and modulate the flow of freshwater to almost 869 million people within the Indus, […]

11. Life history and ecology of Bluenose Warehou (Hyperoglyphe antarctica, Centrolophidae) in the Southern Atlantic

    Bluenose warehou (Hyperoglyphe antarctica) is a popular commercial fish in Australia and New Zealand, but its biology and ecology are very poorly known in other regions where it is found. […]

12. The impact of Föhn conditions across the Antarctic Peninsula on local meteorology based on AWS measurements

    Föhn winds are warm, strong, downslope winds on the lee side of mountains, which can last from several hours to a few days. Recently Föhn conditions over the ice shelves […]
