2. Reference genome of the leopard seal (Hydrurga leptonyx), a Southern Ocean apex predator

   Apex predators play a key role in maintaining ecosystem structure and functions (Ripple et al., 2014; Estes et al., 2016; Enquist et al., 2020). They exert top-down control on food […]

3. FISHGLOB: a collaborative infrastructure to bridge the gap between scientific monitoring and marine biodiversity conservation

   Large-scale biodiversity assessments and conservation applications require integrated and up-to-date datasets across regions. In the oceans, monitoring is fragmented, which affects knowledge exchange and usage. Among existing monitoring programs, scientific […]

4. Discharge Promotes Melt and Formation of Submarine Ice‐Shelf Channels at the Beardmore Glacier Grounding Zone

   Using radar data from the Beardmore Glacier grounding zone, we image a narrow subglacial channel (300-500 m wide) that reaches a height of 200 m above the ambient ice-shelf draft. […]

5. Reflective error: a metric for assessing predictive performance at extreme events

   When using machine learning to model environmental systems, it is often a model’s ability to predict extreme behaviors that yields the highest practical value to policy makers. However, most existing […]

6. Polar ectotherms more vulnerable to warming than expected

   Polar regions are heavily impacted by climate change. Yet, vulnerability assessments suggest little concern about heat-related challenges for polar terrestrial ectotherms. These conclusions are based, however, on assumptions and extrapolation […]

7. Speed-up, slowdown, and redirection of ice flow on neighbouring ice streams in the Pope, Smith, and Kohler region of West Antarctica

   The ice streams feeding the Dotson and Crosson ice shelves are some of the fastest changing in West Antarctica. We use satellite observations to measure the change in ice speed […]

8. Identifying and benchmarking polar research – bibliometric issues and implications

   This paper explores the challenge of identifying Antarctic polar research using conventional keyword searches, and examines the way these approaches can be used for benchmarking the bibliometric impact of polar […]

9. Electron Acceleration and Zebra Stripe Formation in Saturn’s Radiation Belts

   This study uses the Versatile Electron Radiation Belt code to model Saturn’s radiation belt environment, investigating electron acceleration, loss, and transport mechanisms. The simulations consider various physical processes, including convection […]

10. Desmonostoc cockrellii sp. nov. (Nostocales, Cyanobacteria): a new record of a subaerophytic species from The Habitat Penang Hill, Malaysia

    Subaerophytic cyanobacterial diversity is poorly known in Malaysian rainforests generally and at Penang Hill specifically. A new subaerophytic species of cyanobacteria, Desmonostoc cockrellii sp. nov., was isolated from rocky surfaces […]

11. A haplotype-resolved chromosomal reference genome for the porcini mushroom Boletus edulis

    Haplotype-resolved chromosomal reference genomes are increasingly available for many fungi, offering insights into the evolution of pathogenic and symbiotic lifestyles. However, these resources remain scarce for ectomycorrhizal fungi, which play […]

12. Impacts of deglaciation on biodiversity and ecosystem function

    Glaciers and glacially influenced ecosystems host unique biodiversity spanning all kingdoms of life, but glaciers are retreating as the global climate warms, threatening specialist species, ecosystem functions and stability. We […]
