1. Low-level wind profiles at an Antarctic coastal station

   Wind and temperature profiles in the lowest 2000 m of the atmosphere at Halley (75°35′S, 26°50′W) have been analysed. Surface winds blow most frequently from the sector 090° ± 45° […]

2. Antarctic fish muscles — structure, function and physiology

   The structure and function of swimming muscles in Antarctic fish is reviewed, the emphasis being on the highly endemic sub-order Notothenioidei. Adult stages of the vast majority of species swim […]

3. The Antarctic drainage flow: implications for hemispheric flow on the Southern Hemisphere

   An Ekman analysis of the surface drainage winds over a sloping ice surface is reported. Ekman pumping by the boundary layer leads to the formation of an upper tropospheric cyclonic […]

4. Coarse-grained submarine fan and slope apron deposits in a Cretaceous back-arc basin, Antarctica

   The Cretaceous of west James Ross Island, Antarctica represents the proximal fill of a late Mesozoic back‐arc basin that was probably initiated by oblique extension during the early development of […]

6. Path-integrated growth of electrostatic waves: The generation of terrestrial myriametric radiation

   It is generally accepted that electrostatic wave energy is the source of terrestrial myriametric radiation (TMR), but there are several theories to suggest how this energy is converted into TMR. […]

11. The effects of temperature and moisture on CO2 uptake and total resistance to water loss in the antarctic foliose lichen Umbilicaria antarctica

    Maximum net photosynthesis of field‐fresh thalli, illuminated at 200 μmol photons m−2 s−1 (PAR), was attained at 13 °C and 1.10 g g−1 water content. Small but significant rates of […]

12. Antarctic rock weathering simulations: simulator design, application and use

    The design of a computer-controlled climatic simulation cabinet used for mechanical weathering studies on Antarctic rocks is described. It is argued that if the results of simulations are to be […]
