2. A distant look at the cryosphere

   Ninety nine per cent of all the fresh water on the surface of the Earth is in the form of ice. Observations from space have revealed more about the ice […]

3. Petrogenesis of metamorphic rocks within a subduction-accretion terrane, Signy Island, South Orkney Islands

   Whole‐rock and mineral analyses of polydeformed mica‐schist, quartzite, marble and amphibolite are presented from Signy Island, South Orkney Islands, part of the Scotia metamorphic complex. Whole‐rock chemistry suggests that the […]

4. Crustal growth of the Antarctic Peninsula by accretion, magmatism and extension

   A subduction-accretion model incorporating new geophysical data is presented to explain the geology of the Antarctic Peninsula from late Palaeozoic to Cenozoic time. According to the model, the peninsula consists […]

5. First measurements of thermospheric winds in Antarctica by an optical ground-based method

   The installation of a Fabry–Perot interferometer at Halley (75.5° S, 26.8° W; L = 4.2), Antarctica, has now allowed the first comparison to be made between Southern Hemisphere ground-based thermospheric […]

6. Ignimbrites of the Cerro Galan caldera, NW Argentina

   The 35 × 20 km Cerro Galán resurgent caldera is the largest post-Miocene caldera so far identified in the Andes. The Cerro Galán complex developed on a late pre-Cambrian to […]

7. The natural history of Beauchêne Island

   Beauchêne Island is the most isolated of the Falkland Islands archipelago and until the authors’ visit there in 1980 little was known or published about the island and its biota […]

8. New southernmost record for Antarctic flowering plants

   Smith (1982) reported the discovery in 1981 of Antarctic hair grass Deschampsia antarctica Desv. on the largest of the Refuge Islands (68° 21′ S) in Marguerite Bay, off the south-west […]

10. Automated detection of basal icequakes and discrimination from surface crevassing

    Icequakes at or near the bed of a glacier have the potential to allow us to investigate theinteraction of ice with the underlying till or bedrock. Understanding this interaction is […]
