Controls on sedimentation at convergent plate-margins
Convergent margins are areas of geological complexity. Basins which occur in the same position relative to a volcanic arc may owe their origin to more than one process of formation. […]

Factors affecting the growth rate and mass at weaning of Antarctic fur seals at Bird Island, South Georgia
Read more of: Factors affecting the growth rate and mass at weaning of Antarctic fur seals at Bird Island, South GeorgiaWe studied the influence of sex of pup, maternal age, birth date of pup, number of foraging trips, and the mean duration of foraging trips at sea and nursing visits […]

Effects of maternal age and condition on parturition and the perinatal period of Antarctic fur seals
Read more of: Effects of maternal age and condition on parturition and the perinatal period of Antarctic fur sealsThe effect of maternal age and condition on the date of parturition and the duration of the perinatal period of Antarctic fur seals at Bird Island, South Georgia, were investigated […]

Antarctic larval fish assemblages: a review
Read more of: Antarctic larval fish assemblages: a reviewLarval fish assemblages are considered within the context of the unique ichthyofauna which evolved in Antarctic waters as a result of environmental cooling, glaciation, and isolation by the Antarctic polar […]

Seafloor spreading in the Weddell Sea and southwest Atlantic since the Late Cretaceous
Read more of: Seafloor spreading in the Weddell Sea and southwest Atlantic since the Late CretaceousGeosat radar altimetry defines a pattern of closely spaced curvilinear gravity anomalies in the northern Weddell Sea and adjacent parts of the southwest Atlantic. These anomalies are caused by a […]

Linking extreme interannual changes in prey availability to foraging behaviour and breeding investment in a marine predator, the macaroni penguin
Read more of: Linking extreme interannual changes in prey availability to foraging behaviour and breeding investment in a marine predator, the macaroni penguinUnderstanding the mechanisms that link prey availability to predator behaviour and population change is central to projecting how a species may respond to future environmental pressures. We documented the behavioural […]

Marine mammals exploring the oceans pole to pole: a review of the MEOP Consortium
Read more of: Marine mammals exploring the oceans pole to pole: a review of the MEOP ConsortiumPolar oceans are poorly monitored despite the important role they play in regulating Earth’s climate system. Marine mammals equipped with biologging devices are now being used to fill the data […]

Accumulation in coastal West Antarctic ice core records and the role of cyclone activity
Read more of: Accumulation in coastal West Antarctic ice core records and the role of cyclone activityCyclones are an important component of Antarctic climate variability, yet quantifying their impact on the polar environment is challenging. We assess how cyclones which pass through the Bellingshausen Sea affect […]

Spatio-temporal variation in phytoplankton communities along a salinity and pH gradient in a tropical estuary (Brunei, Borneo, South East Asia)
Read more of: Spatio-temporal variation in phytoplankton communities along a salinity and pH gradient in a tropical estuary (Brunei, Borneo, South East Asia)Tropical estuaries often have a low buffering capacity and may experience acidification, both naturally through microbial degradation and run-off from acid sulphate soils (ASS), or from various anthropogenic sources. Here, […]

The Euphausia superba transcriptome database, SuperbaSE: An online, open resource for researchers
Read more of: The Euphausia superba transcriptome database, SuperbaSE: An online, open resource for researchersAntarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is a crucial component of the Southern Ocean ecosystem, acting as the major link between primary production and higher trophic levels with an annual predator demand […]
