1. 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 […]

2. Energy and mass balance dynamics of the seasonal snowpack at two high-altitude sites in the Himalaya

   Snow dynamics play a crucial role in the hydrology of alpine catchments in the Himalaya. However, studies based on in-situ observations that elucidate the energy and mass balance of the […]

3. The potential of satellite imagery for surveying whales

   The emergence of very high-resolution (VHR) satellite imagery (less than 1 m spatial resolution) is creating new opportunities within the fields of ecology and conservation biology. The advancement of sub-meter […]

4. Marine Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas for penguins in Antarctica, targets for conservation action

   Global targets for area-based conservation and management must move beyond threshold-based targets alone and must account for the quality of such areas. In the Southern Ocean around Antarctica, a region […]

5. Annelid Fauna of the Prince Gustav Channel, a previously ice-covered seaway on the northeastern Antarctic Peninsula.

   The Prince Gustav Channel is a narrow seaway located in the western Weddell Sea on the northeastern-most tip of the Antarctic Peninsula. The channel is notable for both its deep […]

6. Lithospheric delamination beneath the southern Puna plateau resolved by local earthquake tomography

   We present a local earthquake tomography to illuminate the crustal and uppermost mantle structure beneath the southern Puna plateau and to test the delamination hypothesis. Vp and Vp/Vs ratios were […]

7. The electrical activity of Saharan dust as perceived from surface electric field observations.

   We report on the electric field variations during Saharan dust advection over two atmospheric remote stations in Greece, using synergistic observations of the vertical atmospheric electric field strength (Ez) at […]

8. Migrating semidiurnal tide during the September Equinox transition in the Northern Hemisphere

   Specified Dynamics Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model with thermosphere‐ionosphere eXtension simulations are used to investigate the solar migrating semidiurnal tide (SW2) around September equinox at middle to high latitudes in […]

9. Mixing and transformation in a deep western boundary current: A case study

   Water-mass transformation by turbulent mixing is a key part of the deep-ocean overturning, as it drives the upwelling of dense waters formed at high latitudes. Here, we quantify this transformation […]

10. Communities of terrestrial invertebrates from Diego Ramírez archipelago (56°31’S), the southernmost long term ecological research site of the Americas: Diversity and affinities with other Subantarctic Islands from the Southern Ocean

    The Diego Ramírez and Cape Horn archipelagos are located at the southern end of the Magellanic subantarctic ecoregion. The fauna of insects and other terrestrial invertebrates has been poorly characterized. […]

11. Freshwater macroinvertebrates from Yendegaia National Park, Chile: Tackling knowledge biodiversity gaps in the Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve

    The Yendegaia National Park, located to the south of Tierra del Fuego and at the eastern margin of the Darwin Mountain Range, forms part of the Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve […]

12. On constraining projections of future climate using observations and simulations from multiple climate models

    Numerical climate models are used to project future climate change due to both anthropogenic and natural causes. Differences between projections from different climate models are a major source of uncertainty […]
