The Pre-Cenozoic magmatic history of the Thurston Island Crustal Block, west Antarctica
Read more of: The Pre-Cenozoic magmatic history of the Thurston Island Crustal Block, west AntarcticaNew Rb-Sr and K-Ar geochronological data are presented for the majority of known pre-Cenozoic outcrops in Thurston Island, the Jones Mountains, and the western Eights Coast, which collectively represent the […]

CMIP5 diversity in southern westerly jet projections related to historical sea ice area; strong link to strengthening and weak link to shift
Read more of: CMIP5 diversity in southern westerly jet projections related to historical sea ice area; strong link to strengthening and weak link to shiftA major feature of projected changes in Southern Hemisphere climate under future scenarios of increased greenhouse gas concentrations is the poleward shift and strengthening of the main eddy-driven belt of […]

Dwarf shrub and grass vegetation resistant to long-term experimental warming while microarthropod abundance declines on the Falkland Islands
Read more of: Dwarf shrub and grass vegetation resistant to long-term experimental warming while microarthropod abundance declines on the Falkland IslandsDwarf shrubs are a dominant plant type across many regions of the Earth and have hence a large impact on carbon and nutrient cycling rates. Climate change impacts on dwarf […]

Cross-disciplinarity in the advance of Antarctic ecosystem research
Read more of: Cross-disciplinarity in the advance of Antarctic ecosystem researchThe biodiversity, ecosystem services and climate variability of the Antarctic continent and the Southern Ocean are major components of the whole Earth system. Antarctic ecosystems are driven more strongly by […]

Long-term geomagnetically induced current observations in New Zealand: Earth return corrections and geomagnetic field driver
Read more of: Long-term geomagnetically induced current observations in New Zealand: Earth return corrections and geomagnetic field driverTranspower New Zealand Limited has measured DC currents in transformer neutrals in the New Zealand electrical network at multiple South Island locations. Near-continuous archived DC current data exist since 2001, […]

Biology and ecology of the world’s largest invertebrate, the colossal squid (Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni): a short review
Read more of: Biology and ecology of the world’s largest invertebrate, the colossal squid (Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni): a short reviewThe colossal squid Mesonychoteuthis hamiltoni (Robson 1925) is the largest (heaviest) living invertebrate and although it is preyed upon by many top predators, its basic biology and ecology remain one […]

Deep crustal melt plumbing of Bárðarbunga volcano, Iceland
Read more of: Deep crustal melt plumbing of Bárðarbunga volcano, IcelandUnderstanding magmatic plumbing within the Earth’s crust is important for understanding volcanic systems and improving eruption forecasting. We discuss magma plumbing under Bárðarbunga volcano, Iceland, over a 4 year period […]

Crossing the divide: Admixture across the Antarctic Polar Front revealed by the brittle star Astrotoma agassizii
Read more of: Crossing the divide: Admixture across the Antarctic Polar Front revealed by the brittle star Astrotoma agassiziiThe Antarctic Polar Front (APF) is one of the most well-defined and persistent oceanographic features on the planet and serves as a barrier to dispersal between the Southern Ocean and […]

Latitudinal trends in shell production cost from the tropics to the poles
Read more of: Latitudinal trends in shell production cost from the tropics to the polesThe proportion of body mass devoted to skeleton in marine invertebrates decreases along latitudinal gradients from large proportions in the tropics to small proportions in polar regions. A historical hypothesis—that […]

Ice and ocean velocity in the Arctic marginal ice zone: Ice roughness and momentum transfer
Read more of: Ice and ocean velocity in the Arctic marginal ice zone: Ice roughness and momentum transferThe interplay between sea ice concentration, sea ice roughness, ocean stratification, and momentum transfer to the ice and ocean is subject to seasonal and decadal variations that are crucial to […]

A synergistic approach for evaluating climate model output for ecological applications
Read more of: A synergistic approach for evaluating climate model output for ecological applicationsIncreasing concern about the impacts of climate change on ecosystems is prompting ecologists and ecosystem managers to seek reliable projections of physical drivers of change. The use of global climate […]
