The biogeochemical transport by the Gulf Stream
The Gulf Stream is important for the climate system through its transport and air-sea exchange of heat. What is less well accepted is the role of the Gulf Stream in […]

Are Simulated Ocean Deoxygenation Rates Consistent with the Observational Reconstructions?
Read more of: Are Simulated Ocean Deoxygenation Rates Consistent with the Observational Reconstructions?It is currently debated whether Earth system models (ESMs) can reproduce observation-based long-term changes in global and regional deoxygenation rates. Both models and observations include uncertainties, which must be considered […]

Occurrence of major earthquakes is as stochastic as smaller ones
Read more of: Occurrence of major earthquakes is as stochastic as smaller onesSeismic hazard estimates rely on interevent time distributions between earthquakes of a given magnitude. In the Himalaya, recurrence intervals are usually modeled as cyclic or quasiperiodic, whereas globally, they range […]

An Ice Sheet-to-Ocean Analysis of Carbon Stores and Fluxes in Earth’s Polar Regions (RECCAP2, Polar Ice Sheets)
Read more of: An Ice Sheet-to-Ocean Analysis of Carbon Stores and Fluxes in Earth’s Polar Regions (RECCAP2, Polar Ice Sheets)The polar ice sheets, their surrounding land fringes and oceans (68 × 106 km2; 13% of Earth’s surface) are hot spots for carbon cycle perturbation under future climate change due […]

Subglacial Topography of Coats Land Records Post‐Gondwanan Landscape Evolution and Early Ice‐Sheet Behavior in East Antarctica
Read more of: Subglacial Topography of Coats Land Records Post‐Gondwanan Landscape Evolution and Early Ice‐Sheet Behavior in East AntarcticaThe East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) formed circa 34 million years ago and now contains an ice volume equivalent to ∼52 m of global sea-level rise. Although the EAIS is […]

Contrasting life-history strategies of three sympatric icefish species in the northern Scotia Sea
Read more of: Contrasting life-history strategies of three sympatric icefish species in the northern Scotia SeaComprehending a species’ life-history strategies is crucial to inform effective conservation efforts. Commercial fishing impacts icefish (family: Channichthyidae) in the Scotia Sea, but detailed information on species-specific life histories remains […]

Geochemical characterisation of the Ellsworth-Whitmore Mountains crustal block: a critical piece in the puzzle to unravel ice retreat in West Antarctica
Read more of: Geochemical characterisation of the Ellsworth-Whitmore Mountains crustal block: a critical piece in the puzzle to unravel ice retreat in West AntarcticaThe West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) is prone to major retreat. Identifying when previous WAIS retreats occurred could improve sea level rise projections, but detection of these events in marine […]

Ocean heat forced West Antarctic Ice Sheet retreat after the Last Glacial Maximum
Read more of: Ocean heat forced West Antarctic Ice Sheet retreat after the Last Glacial MaximumThe West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) is thinning at an accelerating rate, driven by melting at its margins by warm Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW). However, this understanding is largely based […]

Developing Essential Biodiversity Variables for the Southern Ocean: From data gaps to valuable insights
Read more of: Developing Essential Biodiversity Variables for the Southern Ocean: From data gaps to valuable insightsThe Southern Ocean is central to global heat and carbon cycling, connecting all the major ocean basins and regulating Earth’s climate system, and hence providing ecosystem services of global significance.

Seasonal variation in zooplankton assemblages in Ryder Bay, Adelaide Island, Antarctic Peninsula
Read more of: Seasonal variation in zooplankton assemblages in Ryder Bay, Adelaide Island, Antarctic PeninsulaSeasonal and inter-annual variations in zooplankton play a vital role in marine ecosystems. In Antarctica, because of the extreme seasonality and ice extent, zooplankton studies are predominantly conducted in summer […]

The Southern Annular Mode and its relationship with Antarctic temperature in contrasting future storylines
Read more of: The Southern Annular Mode and its relationship with Antarctic temperature in contrasting future storylinesThe Southern Annular Mode (SAM) strongly modulates Antarctic near-surface air temperature (SAT) variability. We employ a storyline approach to examine projected end of century changes in the spatial SAM-SAT relationship […]

Polyphasic characterisation of a member of the ecologically important epipelic cyanobacterial Pseudanabaena (Pseudanabaenaceae) isolated from Dian Pu River, Shanghai, China
Read more of: Polyphasic characterisation of a member of the ecologically important epipelic cyanobacterial Pseudanabaena (Pseudanabaenaceae) isolated from Dian Pu River, Shanghai, ChinaAn epipelic strain of the cyanobacterium Pseudanabaena (USMAC20) obtained from the sediment of Dian Pu River, Shanghai, China, was characterized using combined phenotypic and genetic approaches. The morphological plasticity of […]
