Diving depths and energy requirements of king penguins
Read more of: Diving depths and energy requirements of king penguinsDuring 4- to 8-day periods at sea, half of 2595 dives of three king penguins were more than 50 meters and two dives exceeded 240 meters. The at-sea metabolic rate, […]

Terrestrial myriametric radiation from the earth’s plasmapause
Read more of: Terrestrial myriametric radiation from the earth’s plasmapauseTerrestrial myriametric radiation (non-thermal continuum) observed by the GEOS 1 spacecraft is used to determine the radial profile of plasma density at the equatorial plasmapause. The method utilises the properties […]

The uppermost mantle seismic velocity structure of West Antarctica from Rayleigh wave tomography: insights into tectonic structure and geothermal heat flow
Read more of: The uppermost mantle seismic velocity structure of West Antarctica from Rayleigh wave tomography: insights into tectonic structure and geothermal heat flowWe present a shear wave model of the West Antarctic upper mantle to ∼200 km depth with enhanced regional resolution from the 2016-2018 UK Antarctic Seismic Network. The model is […]

Oxygen consumption of some Antarctic and British gastropods: An evaluation of cold adaptation
Read more of: Oxygen consumption of some Antarctic and British gastropods: An evaluation of cold adaptation1. The oxygen consumption of four species of inshore gastropods from Signy Island, Antarctica was measured at −1.7 and +0.5°C in seawater. The limpet Nacella concinna (Strebel) showed a decrease […]
