Uplift and tilting of the Shackleton Range in East Antarctica driven by glacial erosion and normal faulting
Read more of: Uplift and tilting of the Shackleton Range in East Antarctica driven by glacial erosion and normal faultingUnravelling the long-term evolution of the subglacial landscape of Antarctica is vital for understanding past ice sheet dynamics and stability, particularly in marine-based sectors of the ice sheet. Here, we […]

Eddy saturation and frictional control of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current
Read more of: Eddy saturation and frictional control of the Antarctic Circumpolar CurrentThe Antarctic Circumpolar Current is the strongest current in the ocean and has a pivotal impact on ocean stratification, heat content, and carbon content. The circumpolar volume transport is relatively […]

Ocean acidification and calcium carbonate saturation states in the coastal zone of the West Antarctic Peninsula
Read more of: Ocean acidification and calcium carbonate saturation states in the coastal zone of the West Antarctic PeninsulaThe polar oceans are particularly vulnerable to ocean acidification; the lowering of seawater pH and carbonate mineral saturation states due to uptake of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). High spatial variability […]

Interannual variability in phytoplankton biomass and species composition in northern Marguerite Bay (West Antarctic Peninsula) is governed by both winter sea ice cover and summer stratification
Read more of: Interannual variability in phytoplankton biomass and species composition in northern Marguerite Bay (West Antarctic Peninsula) is governed by both winter sea ice cover and summer stratificationThe rapid warming of the West Antarctic Peninsula region has led to reduced sea ice cover and enhanced glacial melt water input. This has potential implications for marine ecosystems, notably […]

Oceanography and sea ice in the Southern Ocean
Read more of: Oceanography and sea ice in the Southern OceanSea ice around Antarctica plays a key role in determining the properties and circulation of the underlying Southern Ocean across a range of scales, whilst simultaneously numerous ocean processes impact […]

Providing the ARCHER community with adjoint modelling tools for high-performance oceanographic and cryospheric computation
Read more of: Providing the ARCHER community with adjoint modelling tools for high-performance oceanographic and cryospheric computationThe MITgcm (MIT General Circulation Model) is a numerical model designed for study of the atmosphere, ocean, and climate (Marshall et al. 1997a,b). Its non-hydrostatic formulation enables it to simulate […]

Bryozoan diversity around the Falkland and South Georgia Islands: Overcoming Antarctic barriers
Read more of: Bryozoan diversity around the Falkland and South Georgia Islands: Overcoming Antarctic barriersThere are a number of remote archipelagos distributed between 45 and 60 °S. The biota of these islands provide useful information to describe and understand patterns in biodiversity and biogeography […]

Feeding ecology, isotopic niche, and ingestion of fishery-related items of the wandering albatross Diomedea exulans at Kerguelen and Crozet Islands
Read more of: Feeding ecology, isotopic niche, and ingestion of fishery-related items of the wandering albatross Diomedea exulans at Kerguelen and Crozet IslandsFeeding ecology and isotopic niche of the wandering albatross Diomedea exulans were investigated in the poorly studied population on the Kerguelen Islands and compared to that on the Crozet Islands.

Evaporating brine from frost flowers with electron microscopy, and implications for atmospheric chemistry and sea-salt aerosol formation
Read more of: Evaporating brine from frost flowers with electron microscopy, and implications for atmospheric chemistry and sea-salt aerosol formationAn environmental scanning electron microscope was used for the first time to obtain well-resolved images, in both temporal and spatial dimensions, of lab-prepared frost flowers (FFs) under evaporation within the […]

Distribution and abundance of juvenile Loligo gahi in Falkland Island waters
Read more of: Distribution and abundance of juvenile Loligo gahi in Falkland Island watersFour research surveys of Falkland Island waters were carried out to determine the distribution and abundance of the early life-history stages of Loligo gahi (d’Orbigny, 1835) in the austral winter […]
