Revisiting the Relationship among Metrics of Tropical Expansion
There is mounting evidence that the width of the tropics has increased over the last few decades, but there are large differences in reported expansion rates. This is, likely, in […]

Radiation effects on satellites during extreme space weather events
Read more of: Radiation effects on satellites during extreme space weather eventsHigh‐energy trapped electrons in the Van Allen belts pose a threat to the survivability of orbiting spacecraft. Two key radiation effects are total ionising dose (TID) and displacement damage dose […]

RAD sequencing and a hybrid Antarctic fur seal genome assembly reveal rapidly decaying linkage disequilibrium, global population structure and evidence for inbreeding
Read more of: RAD sequencing and a hybrid Antarctic fur seal genome assembly reveal rapidly decaying linkage disequilibrium, global population structure and evidence for inbreedingRecent advances in high throughput sequencing have transformed the study of wild organisms by facilitating the generation of high quality genome assemblies and dense genetic marker datasets. These resources have […]

Strategies of cold-hardiness in three species of Antarctic dorylaimid nematodes
Read more of: Strategies of cold-hardiness in three species of Antarctic dorylaimid nematodesThree species of free-living Antarctic fellfield nematodes, Eudorylaimus coniceps, E. spaulli and E. pseudocarteri exhibited differing degrees of both strategies of cold-hardiness; freeze-tolerance and freeze-avoidance. Bimodal distributions of supercooling points […]

Seasonal variation in the cold hardiness of three species of free-living Antarctic nematodes
Read more of: Seasonal variation in the cold hardiness of three species of free-living Antarctic nematodesThe physiological adaptations required to survive exposure to low temperatures must be of great importance in allowing nematodes to colonize extreme terrestrial environments, such as Antarctic fellfields. Seasonal variation in […]

Seasonal variation in the cold-hardiness of a free-living predatory antarctic nematode, Coomansus gerlachei (mononchidae)
Read more of: Seasonal variation in the cold-hardiness of a free-living predatory antarctic nematode, Coomansus gerlachei (mononchidae)Coomansus gerlachei shows a strong seasonal variation in its supercooling ability, with most individuals freezing between -5° and -7°C, in a discrete high group, or between -15° and -26°C in […]

Two methods for the assessment of the oxygen content of small volumes of seawater
Read more of: Two methods for the assessment of the oxygen content of small volumes of seawaterModified micro-Winkler and couloximetric methods are described for the measurement of oxygen in small volumes of water. The former uses a sample size of 1 cm3, while the latter is […]
