Reproductive biology of the antarctic opisthobranch Philine gibba Strebel
Read more of: Reproductive biology of the antarctic opisthobranch Philine gibba StrebelMonthly samples (August 1974 to February 1976) and cultured material have been used to describe ovotestis maturation, spawning, and larval development of the Antarctic opisthobranch Philine gibba Strebel. Ovotestis maturation […]

Squid in the diet of Antarctic fur seals: potential links to oceanographic conditions and Antarctic krill abundance
Read more of: Squid in the diet of Antarctic fur seals: potential links to oceanographic conditions and Antarctic krill abundanceUnderstanding how changes in oceanographic conditions affect predators and their prey is fundamental for interpreting variability in natural marine ecosystems. At South Georgia, Antarctic fur seals Arctocephalus gazella are known […]

Prey differences drive local genetic adaptation in Antarctic fur seals
Read more of: Prey differences drive local genetic adaptation in Antarctic fur sealsAntarctic fur seal Arctocephalus gazella colonies are found on sub-Antarctic islands around the continent. These islands experience a range of conditions in terms of physical and biological habitat, creating a […]

Is vertical shear in an ice shelf negligible?
Read more of: Is vertical shear in an ice shelf negligible?Vertical shear stress in ice shelves cannot be precisely zero, since the upper and lower surfaces are generally not parallel. By performing stress balance on a vertical column in an […]

Equilibrium profile of ice shelves
Read more of: Equilibrium profile of ice shelvesUsing expressions for ice-shelf creep derived by Weertman (1957) and Thomas (1973[b]) a general method is developed for calculating equilibrium thickness profiles, velocities, and strain-rates for any ice shelf. This […]

A revision of the Antarctic and Subantarctic members of the genus Yoldia Moller, 1842 (Bivalvia: Nuculanidae)
Read more of: A revision of the Antarctic and Subantarctic members of the genus Yoldia Moller, 1842 (Bivalvia: Nuculanidae)Samples from 15 Antarctic and Subantarctic localities were measured and subjected to discriminatory analysis of shell morphology. Only two species were recognized as belonging to the genus Yoldia Möller, 1842: […]
