Recent measurements of Antarctic ozone depletion
Read more of: Recent measurements of Antarctic ozone depletionMeasurements of total ozone at Halley Bay, Antarctica, are presented for the six most recent observing seasons, 1980‐86, showing the consistency and progress of the spring ozone depletion. The principal […]

Emperors on thin ice: three years of breeding failure at Halley Bay
Read more of: Emperors on thin ice: three years of breeding failure at Halley BaySatellite imagery is used to show that the world’s second largest emperor penguin colony, at Halley Bay, has suffered three years of almost total breeding failure. Although, like all emperor […]

Growth rings in Cretacous and Tertiary wood from Antarctica and their palaeoclimatic implications
Read more of: Growth rings in Cretacous and Tertiary wood from Antarctica and their palaeoclimatic implicationsAlthough the Antarctic Peninsula now has a glacial climate, during the Cretaceous and early Tertiary it was sufficiently warm for forests to thrive, even at palaeolatitudes of 59°-62° S. The […]

Effectiveness of the RMT8 system for sampling krill (Euphausia superba) swarms
Read more of: Effectiveness of the RMT8 system for sampling krill (Euphausia superba) swarmsThe effectiveness of the Rectangular Midwater Trawl (RMT) for sampling krill swarms was studied by observing the behaviour of swarms in the vicinity of the net using echosounders. Large scale […]

Metabolic constraints on burst-swimming in the Antarctic teleost Notothenia neglecta
Read more of: Metabolic constraints on burst-swimming in the Antarctic teleost Notothenia neglectaImmediate-energy-supply pathways were analysed during burst-swimming in white muscle of the Antarctic fish Notothenia neglecta, (collected during Austral summer 1984 near Signy Island, South Orkneys). Selected enzyme activities were determined, […]

Empirical models of the electron concentration of the ionosphere and their value for radio communications purposes
Read more of: Empirical models of the electron concentration of the ionosphere and their value for radio communications purposesThe availability of representative empirical models of the variation of the electron concentration with height in the ionosphere is one critical element in the development of practical schemes for providing […]

A simple graphical method for dealiasing digital ionosonde echo location data
Read more of: A simple graphical method for dealiasing digital ionosonde echo location dataA simple user interactive technique that allows digital ionosonde sky map echo location data to be dealiased uniquely is described. Unambiguous tracking of large‐scale ionospheric features is thus made possible. […]
