3. sFDvent: a global functional trait database for deep-sea hydrothermal vent fauna

   Traits are increasingly being used to quantify global biodiversity patterns, with trait databases growing in size and number, across diverse taxa. Despite growing interest in a trait‐based approach to the […]

4. Assessing the recovery of an Antarctic predator from historical exploitation

   The recovery of whale populations from centuries of exploitation will have important management and ecological implications due to greater exposure to anthropogenic activities and increasing prey consumption. Here, a Bayesian […]

5. Mapping crustal shear wave velocity structure and radial anisotropy beneath West Antarctica using seismic ambient noise

   Using 8‐25s period Rayleigh and Love wave phase velocity dispersion data extracted from seismic ambient noise, we (i) model the 3D shear wave velocity structure of the West Antarctic crust […]

6. The importance of the Antarctic in atmospheric sciences

   A prime objective of atmospheric science research in Antarctica is to use the special conditions found there to throw new light on global problems and, in particular, to test theories […]

7. Ozone measurements at British Antarctic Survey stations

   Ozone measurements have been made regularly at Argentine Islands and Halley Bay since 1957. A recent critical review of the data revealed inconsistencies in the extraterrestrial constants adopted for the […]

8. Radio wave doppler studies of the Antarctic ionosphere

   The occurence of propagating wave-like disturbances in the atmosphere at ionospheric heights is well documented, but their causes and role in the energy balance of the atmosphere is poorly understood. […]

9. Very low frequency electromagnetic phenomena: ‘whistlers’ and micropulsations

   Observations of natural electromagnetic phenomena, embracing frequencies ranging from millihertz to tens of kilohertz, have made a major contribution to our knowledge of the terrestrial environment extending out to many […]

10. Glaciological research in the Antarctic Peninsula

    The Antarctic Peninsula is a good place for studies that take advantage of its wide range of latitude. Other worthwhile investigations are those that set in context the glacier/climate relationships […]

11. Towards a more certain reconstruction of Gondwanaland

    In the absence of identified magnetic anomalies in the southernmost Atlantic and Indian Oceans, palaeomagnetic data provide the most precise test of the initial relative positions of East and West […]

12. Seals and whales of the Southern Ocean

    There are fewer species of marine mammals in the Antarctic than in the Arctic, probably because of the wide deep ocean with no geographical barriers to promote speciation. The stocks […]
