Using super-high resolution satellite imagery to census threatened albatrosses
Read more of: Using super-high resolution satellite imagery to census threatened albatrossesThis study is the first to utilize 30-cm resolution imagery from the WorldView-3 (WV-3) satellite to count wildlife directly. We test the accuracy of the satellite method for directly counting […]

Subglacial sediment pathways and deglacial chronology of the northern Barents Sea Ice Sheet
Read more of: Subglacial sediment pathways and deglacial chronology of the northern Barents Sea Ice SheetNew information is presented on the configuration of the northern Barents Sea Ice Sheet (BSIS) during the last glacial and deglaciation (21–11.5 ka). The glacial dynamics of the BSIS that […]

How accurate are estimates of glacier ice thickness? Results from ITMIX, the Ice Thickness Models Intercomparison eXperiment
Read more of: How accurate are estimates of glacier ice thickness? Results from ITMIX, the Ice Thickness Models Intercomparison eXperimentKnowledge of the ice thickness distribution of glaciers and ice caps is an important prerequisite for many glaciological and hydrological investigations. A wealth of approaches has recently been presented for […]

Multi-model study of mercury dispersion in the atmosphere: atmospheric processes and model evaluation
Read more of: Multi-model study of mercury dispersion in the atmosphere: atmospheric processes and model evaluationCurrent understanding of mercury (Hg) behavior in the atmosphere contains significant gaps. Some key characteristics of Hg processes, including anthropogenic and geogenic emissions, atmospheric chemistry, and air–surface exchange, are still […]

Multifrequency Radar Imagery and Characterization of Hazardous and Noxious Substances at Sea
Read more of: Multifrequency Radar Imagery and Characterization of Hazardous and Noxious Substances at SeaThe increase in maritime traffic, particularly the transport of hazardous and noxious substances (HNSs), requires advanced methods of identification and characterization in environmental chemical spills. Knowledge about HNS monitoring using […]

Using globally threatened pelagic birds to identify priority sites for marine conservation in the South Atlantic Ocean
Read more of: Using globally threatened pelagic birds to identify priority sites for marine conservation in the South Atlantic OceanThe Convention on Biological Diversity aspires to designate 10% of the global oceans as Marine Protected Areas (MPAs), but so far, few MPAs protect pelagic species in the high seas. […]

Early last glacial intra-interstadial climate variability recorded in a Sardinian speleothem
Read more of: Early last glacial intra-interstadial climate variability recorded in a Sardinian speleothemChemical and physical proxy data from a precisely dated early last glacial (∼113–110 ka, MIS5d) Sardinian stalagmite reveal a sub-millennial-scale, cool-dry climate event centered at 112.0 +0.52/-0.59 ka, followed by […]

Widespread biological response to recent rapid warming on the Antarctic Peninsula
Read more of: Widespread biological response to recent rapid warming on the Antarctic PeninsulaRecent climate change on the Antarctic Peninsula is well documented [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], with warming, alongside increases in precipitation, wind strength, and melt season length [1, 6, 7], […]

The impact of atmospheric storminess on the sensitivity of Southern Ocean circulation to wind stress changes
Read more of: The impact of atmospheric storminess on the sensitivity of Southern Ocean circulation to wind stress changesThe influence of changing the mean wind stress felt by the ocean through alteration of the variability of the atmospheric wind, as opposed to the mean atmospheric wind, on Southern […]

Effect of extreme sea surface temperature events on the demography of an age-structured albatross population
Read more of: Effect of extreme sea surface temperature events on the demography of an age-structured albatross populationClimate changes include concurrent changes in environmental mean, variance and extremes, and it is challenging to understand their respective impact on wild populations, especially when contrasted age-dependent responses to climate […]
