Continued range expansion of introduced reindeer on South Georgia
Reindeer were introduced 70 years ago to the Stromness Bay area on the subantarctic island of South Georgia, and the herd is still surviving. Two glaciers confine the herd, and […]

Valley asymmetry on south-eastern Alexander Island, Antarctica, and valley forms in the High Drakensberg, South Africa
Read more of: Valley asymmetry on south-eastern Alexander Island, Antarctica, and valley forms in the High Drakensberg, South AfricaField data from south-eastern Alexander Island, Antarctica, are used to develop a model for the formation of asymmetrical valley-side slopes. Enhanced weathering and transport causes reduction in the gradient of […]

Zoogeographic distribution of terrestrial/freshwater tardigrades from current literature
Read more of: Zoogeographic distribution of terrestrial/freshwater tardigrades from current literatureThe literature on terrestrial and freshwater Tardigrada is relatively limited, being concerned with 617 species world wide. Many of the references are in obscure publications. This paper attempts to bring […]

Volcanism associated with extension in an Oligocene—Miocene arc, southwestern Viti Levu, Fiji
Read more of: Volcanism associated with extension in an Oligocene—Miocene arc, southwestern Viti Levu, FijiThe Wainimala Group rocks of southwestern Viti Levu, Fiji, represent part of an Oligocene-Miocene island arc. Some of the early volcanism in this arc took place on a substrate of […]

A new methodology for the development of high-latitude ionospheric climatologies and empirical models
Read more of: A new methodology for the development of high-latitude ionospheric climatologies and empirical modelsMany empirical models and climatologies of high-latitude ionospheric processes, such as convection, have been developed over the last 40 years. One common feature in the development of these models is […]

The potential role of Antarctic krill faecal pellets in efficient carbon export at the marginal ice zone of the South Orkney Islands in spring
Read more of: The potential role of Antarctic krill faecal pellets in efficient carbon export at the marginal ice zone of the South Orkney Islands in springAntarctic krill (Euphausia superba) play a central role in the food web of the Southern Ocean, forming a link between primary production and large predators. Krill produce large, faecal pellets […]

Sensitivity model study of regional mercury dispersion in the atmosphere
Read more of: Sensitivity model study of regional mercury dispersion in the atmosphereAtmospheric deposition is the most important pathway by which Hg reaches marine ecosystems, where it can be methylated and enter the base of food chain. The deposition, transport and chemical […]

Evidence of sub-MeV EMIC-driven electron precipitation
Read more of: Evidence of sub-MeV EMIC-driven electron precipitationElectromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are potentially important drivers of the loss of energetic electrons from the radiation belts. Numerous theoretical calculations exist with conflicting predictions of one of the […]

Copepod faecal pellet transfer through the meso- and bathypelagic layers in the Southern Ocean in spring
Read more of: Copepod faecal pellet transfer through the meso- and bathypelagic layers in the Southern Ocean in springThe faecal pellets (FP) of zooplankton can be important vehicles for the transfer of particulate organic carbon (POC) to the deep ocean, often making large contributions to carbon sequestration. However, […]
