Marine ice beneath the Filchner–Ronne Ice Shelf, Antarctica: a comparison of estimated thickness distributions
Read more of: Marine ice beneath the Filchner–Ronne Ice Shelf, Antarctica: a comparison of estimated thickness distributionsIn an earlier study, melt/freeze rates beneath most of the Filchner–Ronne Ice Shelf, Antarctica, were estimated using an assumption of a steady-state ice shelf applied to a velocity field derived […]

Lower-thermosphere-ionosphere (LTI) quantities: current status of measuring techniques and models
Read more of: Lower-thermosphere-ionosphere (LTI) quantities: current status of measuring techniques and modelsThe lower-thermosphere–ionosphere (LTI) system consists of the upper atmosphere and the lower part of the ionosphere and as such comprises a complex system coupled to both the atmosphere below and […]

The taxonomic identity and distribution of the eel cod Muraenolepis (Gadiformes: Muraenolepididae) around South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands
Read more of: The taxonomic identity and distribution of the eel cod Muraenolepis (Gadiformes: Muraenolepididae) around South Georgia and the South Sandwich IslandsFishes of the genus Muraenolepis are regularly caught in commercial and research fishing in the waters around South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, but for many years there has […]

Grounding-zone flow variability of Priestley Glacier, Antarctica, in a diurnal tidal regime
Read more of: Grounding-zone flow variability of Priestley Glacier, Antarctica, in a diurnal tidal regimeTidal modulation of ice streams and their adjacent ice shelves is a real-world experiment to understand ice-dynamic processes. We observe the dynamics of Priestley Glacier, Antarctica, using Terrestrial Radar Interferometry […]

Disentangling the influence of three major threats on the demography of an albatross community
Read more of: Disentangling the influence of three major threats on the demography of an albatross communityClimate change, fisheries and invasive species represent three pervasive threats to seabirds, globally. Understanding the relative influence and compounding nature of marine and terrestrial threats on the demography of seabird […]

Shift from carbon flow through the microbial loop to the viral shunt in coastal Antarctic waters during austral summer
Read more of: Shift from carbon flow through the microbial loop to the viral shunt in coastal Antarctic waters during austral summerThe relative flow of carbon through the viral shunt and the microbial loop is a pivotal factor controlling the contribution of secondary production to the food web and to rates […]

Diel vertical migration of the Southern Ocean euphausiid, Euphausia triacantha, and its metabolic response to consequent short-term temperature changes
Read more of: Diel vertical migration of the Southern Ocean euphausiid, Euphausia triacantha, and its metabolic response to consequent short-term temperature changesDiel vertical migration is a widespread behaviour amongst zooplankton, yet its effect on the rate at which individuals respire remains poorly understood. To address this, we investigated the effect of […]
