Palynological analyses of the Marambio Group sediments of Humps Island (Santa Marta and López de Bertodano formations) indicates that there is minor displacement across a prominent NW–SE trending normal fault […]
Temperatures within soil and plant habitats on Signy Island in the maritime Antarctic were measured during 1987. Four sites were monitored using minithermistors attached to a data logging system. Three […]
The factors causing the cessation of growth and decline of microalgal communities on Antarctic fell-field soils during late summer were investigated. Physical and chemical amendments were applied within small enclosures […]
The fine structure of a cyanobacterial mat collected from the fellfield ecosystems of Signy Island, Antarctica, was examined using some novel light and scanning electron microscope techniques. The mat was […]
The bdelloid rotifers Philodina gregaria Murray and Adineta grandis Murray were both cultured through three generations. The results suggested the following models for calculation purposes: (1) that individual Adineta grandis […]
The roles of maternal age and experience, on the one hand, and individual, year and random effects on the other, in influencing avian egg-size and hatching success have been much […]
Seabirds of high latitudes in the North and South Atlantic (chiefly penguins, Procellariformes, alcids, shags, Gannet and Kittiwake) are compared (on absolute and energy-, mass- and time-specific scaled bases) in […]
The main changes in the distribution and abundance of marine top predators in the Antarctic in the last two centuries were caused by hum an over-exploitation. Hypotheses that increases in […]
Low level hydrocarbon contamination is measurable in the vicinity of Antarctic stations, N-alkane and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) concentrations in seawater and sediment at Signy Station, South Orkney Islands indicated […]
The Antarctic marine environment contains a range of hydrocarbons at low concentrations, which are generally biogenic in origin. All major classes of hydrocarbons have been found in the Antarctic ecosystem. […]
