1. Contractile and metabolic characteristics of muscle fibres from Antarctic fish

   Contractile properties were determined for muscles from three species ofAntarctic fish with broadly similar activity patterns:Trematomus hansoni, Notothenia rossii and Chaenocephalus aceratus. C. aceratus differs from theother species in that […]

2. Evolutionary adaptation of muscle power output to environmental temperature: force-velocity characteristics of skinned fibres isolated from antarctic, temperate and tropical marine fish

   1. Single fast fibres were isolated from the myotomal muscles of icefish (Chaenocephalus aceratus Lönnberg, Antarctica), North Sea Cod (Gadus morhua L.) and Pacific Blue Marlin (Makaira nigricans Wakiya, Hawaii). […]

4. The genus Thalassiosira (Bacillariophyceae): studies on species occurring south of the Antarctic Convergence Zone

   Species of the genus Thalassiosira are abundant in the oceanic waters south of the Antarctic Convergence Zone. Species within the genus are differentiated on the basis of arrangement and density […]

5. Submarine glide blocks from the Lower Cretaceous of the Antarctic Peninsula

   Isolated exotic blocks of late Jurassic age occur within an undeformed succession of marine Lower Cretaceous back‐arc basin deposits on the west coast of James Ross Island, Antarctica. These flat, […]

6. The effects of freeze-thaw cycles and leaching on the loss of soluble carbohydrates from leaf material of two subantarctic plants

   Leaves and litter of two phanerogams (Acaena magellanica (Lam.) Vahl and Poa flabellata (Lam.) Hook. f.) were collected in spring on the subantarctic island of South Georgia. Leaves immersed in […]

9. Mid-latitude Pi 2 pulsations, geosynchronous substorm onset signatures and auroral zone currents on March 22, 1979: CDAW 6

   We relate the mid‐latitude Pi 2 pulsation signatures observed using the Air Force Geophysics Laboratory Magnetometer Network during the March 22, 1979, Sixth Coordinated Data Analysis Workshop interval to the […]

11. The absence of krill from the South Georgia zone, winter 1983

    An extremely low abundance of the Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, was observed in the Scotia Sea during the austral winter of 1983. The decline could not be attributed to any […]
