3. A major rockfall and debris slide on the Lyell Glacier, South Georgia

   A major rockfall occurred near the summit of Paulsen Peak (1877 m) and initiated a slide of rock, firn, and ice debris 4 km down the Lyell Glacier, South Georgia, […]

4. Generalized treatment of particulate scattering in Dobson ozone spectrophotometer calculations

   In the calculation of atmospheric total ozone from ultraviolet spectrometry, the particulate scattering term is usually regarded as a linear function of wavelength. A method due to R. E. Basher, […]

5. An insect invasion of Antarctica: the past, present and future distribution of Eretmoptera murphyi (Diptera, Chironomidae) on Signy Island

   1. Rising human activity in Antarctica, combined with continued warming of the polar climate, means the risk of non‐native terrestrial species colonising and establishing in its biodiversity‐ and nutrient‐poor ecosystems […]

6. Genome‐wide SNP data reveal improved evidence for Antarctic glacial refugia and dispersal of terrestrial invertebrates

   Antarctica is isolated, surrounded by the Southern Ocean, and has experienced extreme environmental conditions for millions of years, including during recent Pleistocene glacial maxima. How Antarctic terrestrial species might have […]

7. Topographic control of Southern Ocean gyres and the Antarctic Circumpolar Current: a barotropic perspective

   In the Southern Ocean the Antarctic Circumpolar Current is significantly steered by large topographic features, and sub-polar gyres form in their lee. The geometry of topographic features in the Southern […]

8. A new trochoidean gastropod (Vetigastropoda: Skeneidae) discovered from deep-sea hydrothermal vents in the Southern Ocean.

   Hydrothermal vents at the East Scotia Ridge (ESR) were the first vents to be visually confirmed and surveyed in the Southern Ocean. A trochoid snail was recovered from low diffuse […]

9. On the annual variability of Antarctic aerosol size distributions at Halley research station

   The Southern Ocean and Antarctic region currently best represent one of the few places left on our planet with conditions similar to the preindustrial age. Currently, climate models have low […]

10. British Antarctic Survey, 1977–78

    Five main British Antarctic Survey stations were occupied throughout the year. These were Faraday and Halley (the two geophysical observatories), Signy (the main biological station), Grytviken (a multi-disciplinary sub-Antarctic station) […]

12. Antarctic fisheries

    During recent years there has been a steady increase in the total world fish catch (including shellfish) to a plateau, reached in the early 1970’s, of around 70 million tonnes. […]
