Egg formation and the pre-laying period of Black-browed and Grey-headed Albatrosses Diomedea melanophris and D. chrysostoma at Bird Island, South Georgia
Read more of: Egg formation and the pre-laying period of Black-browed and Grey-headed Albatrosses Diomedea melanophris and D. chrysostoma at Bird Island, South GeorgiaEgg composition and factors influencing egg formation were studied in Black‐browed and Grey‐headed Albatrosses Diomedea melanophris and D. chrysostoma at Bird Island, South Georgia. At nests where eggs were laid, […]

Effects of phosphate on the contractile properties of fast and slow muscle fibres from an Antarctic fish.
Read more of: Effects of phosphate on the contractile properties of fast and slow muscle fibres from an Antarctic fish.Single fast myotomal fibres and small bundles of slow fibres (from the adductor pectoralis profundus muscle) were isolated from the Antarctic teleost Notothenia neglecta. Fibres were skinned by a brief […]

Survival and water loss in some Antarctic arthropods
Read more of: Survival and water loss in some Antarctic arthropodsSeven species of Antarctic micro-arthropods (4 mites and 3 collembolans) were examined to determine their resistance to dehydration and their survival under dry conditions. Water loss at r.h. 5% at […]

Implications of tde form of the flow law for vertical velocity and age–Depth profiles in polar ice
Read more of: Implications of tde form of the flow law for vertical velocity and age–Depth profiles in polar iceTwo situations are studied in relation to the flow law of polar ice. In each case, models are used with a flow-law exponent of one, and with the more traditional […]
