Variability in sea ice cover and climate elicit sex specific responses in an Antarctic predator
Read more of: Variability in sea ice cover and climate elicit sex specific responses in an Antarctic predatorContrasting regional changes in Southern Ocean sea ice have occurred over the last 30 years with distinct regional effects on ecosystem structure and function. Quantifying how Antarctic predators respond to […]

AidP, a novel N-Acyl Homoserine Lactonase gene from Antarctic Planococcus sp.
Read more of: AidP, a novel N-Acyl Homoserine Lactonase gene from Antarctic Planococcus sp.Planococcus is a Gram-positive halotolerant bacterial genus in the phylum Firmicutes, commonly found in various habitats in Antarctica. Quorum quenching (QQ) is the disruption of bacterial cell-to-cell communication (known as […]

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 […]
