Vertical thermospheric winds at the equatorward edge of the auroral oval
A study has been made of vertical thermospheric winds in the vicinity of Halley, Antarctica (75.5°S, 26.8°W; L = 4.2). Strong downward winds, up to 50 m s−1, are frequently […]

A study has been made of vertical thermospheric winds in the vicinity of Halley, Antarctica (75.5°S, 26.8°W; L = 4.2). Strong downward winds, up to 50 m s−1, are frequently […]
One of the most important outcrops of uppermost Cretaceous (Campanian–Maastrichtian) sedimentary rocks in the southern high latitudes occurs within the James Ross Island group, northeastern Antarctic Peninsula. These rocks comprise […]
The burst precipitation of energetic electrons (≥40 keV), induced by interactions with lightning‐generated whistler mode waves, has been observed to cause phase and amplitude perturbations on subionospheric VLF signals (“Trimpi” […]
Whistler mode group delays from the VLF Doppler experiment at Faraday, Antarctica (65°S, 64°W) show an annual variation that has a maximum in December and a minimum in June/July. Assuming […]
The deep-water prawn Pandalus borealis Kroyer, 1838 was sampled at six locations from Krossfjord, Spitsbergen (79⚬N, close to the known northerly limit of distribution) to Kosterfjord, Sweden (58⚬N, close to […]
The polar marine environment is characterised by low stable temperatures with seasonal variations ranging from ±3°C at lower latitudes to only ±0.2°C at high latitudes. The Arctic basin is dominated […]
Cold adaptation encompasses all those aspects of an organism’s physiology that allow it to live in polar regions. With the exception of the special case of the need to avoid […]
Analysis of AVHRR data collected during the summer and winter over the Ross Ice Shelf reveals complex patterns of curvilinear stripes. In particular, a large, looping pattern of stripes is […]
