A simple shape-from-shading algorithm applied to images of ice-covered terrain
Read more of: A simple shape-from-shading algorithm applied to images of ice-covered terrainSnow surfaces in the polar regions have uniform reflecting properties over large areas. Slopes are usually low-in Antarctica, they rarely exceed 2/spl deg/ except in mountainous regions. Such low slopes […]

Modelling reproductive effort in sub-and maritime Antarctic mosses
Read more of: Modelling reproductive effort in sub-and maritime Antarctic mossesA comparison is made of the reproductive effort (RE), considered as the investment in sporophyte relative to gametophyte biomass, of eight species of moss occurring at sub-and maritime Antarctic sites. […]

Photosynthesis and dark respiration in Antarctic mosses?an initial comparative study
Read more of: Photosynthesis and dark respiration in Antarctic mosses?an initial comparative studyRates of dark respiration (DR), gross photosynthesis (GPS) and net photosynthesis (NPS) were investigated for 14 species of moss from a maritime Antarctic locality. The rates found were similar to […]
