1. The last three millions of unequal spring thaws

   Evidence from various climate proxies provides us with increasingly reliable proof that only in the past 10 millennia were natural systems more or less as we see them at the […]

2. A comparison of baleen whale density estimates derived from overlapping satellite imagery and a shipborne survey

   As whales recover from commercial exploitation, they are increasing in abundance in habitats that they have been absent from for decades. However, studying the recovery and habitat use patterns of […]

3. Changing biogeochemistry of the Southern Ocean and its ecosystem implications

   The Southern Ocean plays a critical role in regulating global climate as a major sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), and in global ocean biogeochemistry by supplying nutrients to the […]

4. Nanoplastics affect moulting and faecal pellet sinking in Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) juveniles

   Plastic debris has been identified as a potential threat to Antarctic marine ecosystems, however, the impact of nanoplastics (

5. Future Distribution of Suitable Habitat for Pelagic Sharks in Australia Under Climate Change Models

   Global oceans are absorbing over 90% of the heat trapped in our atmosphere due to accumulated anthropogenic greenhouse gases, resulting in increasing ocean temperatures. Such changes may influence marine ectotherms, […]

6. Ecophysiology and ecological limits of symbiotrophic vesicomyid bivalves (Pliocardiinae) in the Southern Ocean

   Geothermal energy provides an important resource in Antarctic marine ecosystems, exemplified by the recent discovery of large-sized chemosymbiotic vesicomyid bivalves (subfamily Pliocardiinae) in the Southern Ocean. These clams, which we […]

7. Antarctic octopod beaks as proxy for mercury concentrations in soft tissues

   As the role of mercury is poorly known in Southern Ocean biota, the total mercury (T-Hg) concentrations were evaluated in upper/lower beaks, digestive gland, gills and mantle muscle of Adelieledone […]

8. Large-scale englacial folding and deep-ice stratigraphy within the West Antarctic Ice Sheet

   It has been hypothesized that complex englacial structures identified within the East Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets are generated by (i) water freezing to the ice sheet base and evolving […]

9. Distribution and Habitat Preferences of the Newly Rediscovered Telmatogeton magellanicus (Jacobs, 1900) (Diptera: Chironomidae) on Navarino Island, Chile

   The habitat of the intertidal flightless midge Telmatogeton magellanicus (Jacobs, 1900) is described for the first time from the northern coast of Navarino Island, Tierra del Fuego, Chile. Additionally, we […]

12. The International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean Version 4.0

    Bathymetry (seafloor depth), is a critical parameter providing the geospatial context for a multitude of marine scientific studies. Since 1997, the International Bathymetric Chart of the Arctic Ocean (IBCAO) has […]
