Interpreting natural climate signals in ice cores
Read more of: Interpreting natural climate signals in ice coresPolar ice caps preserve information about atmospheric composition over the past tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of years. They contain a rich history of the Earth’s volcanic activity, […]

HF radar signatures of the cusp and low-latitude boundary layer
Read more of: HF radar signatures of the cusp and low-latitude boundary layerContinuous ground-based observations of ionospheric and magnetospheric regions are critical to the Geospace Environment Modeling (GEM) program. It is therefore important to establish clear intercalibrations between different ground-based instruments and […]

Response of the copepod community to a spring bloom in the Bellingshausen Sea
Read more of: Response of the copepod community to a spring bloom in the Bellingshausen SeaDuring Austral spring 1992, R.R.S. James Clark Ross worked a five station transect in the Bellingshausen Sea. The transect spanned unproductive waters under solid pack ice to an open-water bloom […]

Omnivory and feeding selectivity in five copepod species during spring in the Bellingshausen Sea, Antarctica
Read more of: Omnivory and feeding selectivity in five copepod species during spring in the Bellingshausen Sea, AntarcticaCopepod grazing experiments were undertaken along a transect of five stations in the Bellingshausen Sea during austral spring. The stations spanned unproductive, nanoflagellate-dominated waters under pack ice to an open […]

Seabird interactions with longlining operations for Dissostichus eleginoides around South Georgia, April to May 1994
Read more of: Seabird interactions with longlining operations for Dissostichus eleginoides around South Georgia, April to May 1994Longlining operations for Dissostichus eleginoides off South Georgia were assessed for incidental mortality and interactions with seabirds. Twenty-seven line sets were observed and 98 deaths of seabirds were recorded over […]

Current flow in the north-west Weddell Sea
Read more of: Current flow in the north-west Weddell SeaProperties of the surface and bottom circulation in the north-west Weddell and south Scotia seas in the region 59–66°S, 36–46°W are examined. The bottom currents have been recorded at different […]

An annual profile of growth in the otoliths of immature Notothenia coriiceps Richardson in relation to the environment at Signy Island, Antarctica
Read more of: An annual profile of growth in the otoliths of immature Notothenia coriiceps Richardson in relation to the environment at Signy Island, AntarcticaScanning electron microscope and image analysis techniques were used to construct a profile of otolith growth from June 1987–June 1988 in immature Notothenia coriiceps. Growth was found to fluctuate seasonally […]

A simplified method for determining the gross chemical composition of pinniped milk samples
Read more of: A simplified method for determining the gross chemical composition of pinniped milk samplesRecent studies of lactation in wild mammals have emphasised the need for accurate information on milk composition, requiring the analysis of large numbers of samples. A simplified method for determining […]

Trends in entanglement of Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella) in man-made debris at South Georgia
Read more of: Trends in entanglement of Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella) in man-made debris at South GeorgiaA study conducted at South Georgia in 1988/1989 indicated that several thousand Antarctic fur seals were entangled mainly in man-made material originating from fishing vessels. Consequently, the authority responsible for […]

Temporal patterns of milk production in Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella)
Read more of: Temporal patterns of milk production in Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella)The timing of milk production in Antarctic fur seals was studied at Bird Island, South Georgia. Like all lactating otariid seals (Pinnipedia: Otariidae), Antarctic fur seal females alternate between short […]

Inter- and intra-annual variation in milk composition in Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella)
Read more of: Inter- and intra-annual variation in milk composition in Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella)The inter- and intra-annual variation in milk composition in Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella) was investigated over three consecutive lactation periods (1990-1992) at Bird Island, South Georgia, which included one […]
