1. Mesozoic seafloor spreading in the southern Weddell Sea

   A re-evaluation of Weddell Sea magnetic anomaly data, in the light of satellite gravity maps, provides important constraints on plate kinematics prior to chron C34 (83 Ma). Although M-series anomalies […]

2. Characteristics of localized ionospheric disturbances inferred from VLF measurements at two closely spaced receivers

   The very low frequency (VLF) NPM signal from Hawaii was recorded at two closely spaced (∼50 km) receivers (located at Palmer and Faraday stations) on the Antarctic Peninsula. Measurements of […]

3. Microbial dynamics in coastal waters of East Antarctica:bacterial production and nanoflagellate bacterivory

   Bacterial production and heterotrophic nanoflagellate (HNAN) bacterivory were determined concurrently with measurements of abundance and biomass at weekly intervals between 30 December 1993 and 11 February 1994 at a shallow, […]

4. Microbial dynamics during the summer ice-loss phase in maritime Antarctic lakes

   The dynamics of bacterioplankton and protozooplankton in two maritime Antarctic lakes (Heywood Lake and Sombre Lake, Signy Island, South Orkneys) were studied during the phase of ice break-out (December and […]

5. The surface energy and mass balance at Halley, Antarctica during winter

   We present measurements of the components of the energy and mass balance of the snow surface at Halley Research Station, Antarctica. During the winter months, when insolation is small or […]

6. Longwave atmospheric radiation over Antarctica

   The seasonal and spatial variation of downward longwave radiation (L↓) at the surface of the Antarctic ice sheet is studied using data from four stations. L↓ is found to depend […]

7. An Antarctic molluscan biomineralisation tool-kit

   The Antarctic clam Laternula elliptica lives almost permanently below 0 °C and therefore is a valuable and tractable model to study the mechanisms of biomineralisation in cold water. The present study […]

8. Demonstration of “substantial research activity” to acquire consultative status under the Antarctic Treaty

   Antarctic Treaty Consultative Parties are entitled to participate in consensus-based governance of the continent through the annual Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meetings. To acquire consultative status, an interested Party must demonstrate […]

11. Weddell Sea tectonics and Gondwana break-up: an introduction

    The Weddell Sea, part of the circumpolar Southern Ocean, is probably the most remote, least known and least accessible sea in the world. Difficult ice conditions have limited the acquisition […]

12. New seismic data from the Ronne Ice Shelf, Antarctica

    We present the first images of sub-seabed structure to be obtained from beneath the Ronne Ice Shelf. Single-fold profiles totalling 158 km were recorded using a new form drag cable […]
