1. The use of kites to investigate boundary layer meteorology

   The application of kites as a platform for meteorological measurement within the boundary layer is examined. Kites are shown to fulfil a useful role within this research area, particularly when […]

2. The chrysophyte stomatocyst flora of the moss vegetation from Strømness Bay Area, South Georgia

   The chrysophyte stomatocyst flora from 36 moss samples from Stromness Bay area on the subantarctic island of South Georgia is decribed, using both light and scanning electron microscopy. A total […]

3. A multi-wavelength classification method for polar stratospheric cloud types using infrared limb spectra

   The Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS) instrument on board the ESA Envisat satellite operated from July 2002 until April 2012. The infrared limb emission measurements represent a unique […]

5. Detection of human commensals in the area around an Antarctic research station

   Human contamination of Antarctic environments is a sensitive issue and has been the focus of many research articles over the past 35 years. The majority of these studies have targeted […]

6. Variability of precipitation over the coastal western Antarctic Peninsula from synoptic observations

   Observations of precipitation events at Faraday and Rothera Stations are analyzed to investigate the spatial and temporal variability of precipitation along the western coastal (Pacific) side of the Antarctic Peninsula. […]

8. Characterization of the Antarctic Polar Frontal Zone to the north of South Georgia in summer 1994

   The Polar Front (PF) forms the southern boundary to the Polar Frontal Zone (PFZ) along the northern edge of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC). In a number of areas the […]

9. Responses to desiccation in four Coleopterans from sub-Antarctic South Georgia

   Rates of water loss were determined for four Coleoptera species: the herbivores Hydromedion sparsutum, Perimylops antarcticus (Family Perimylopidae) and the carnivores Trechisibus antarcticus, Oopterus soledadinus (Family Carabidae) collected during summer […]

10. Respiratory metabolism in two species of carabid beetle from the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia

    The influence of feeding state on cold-adapted metabolism was investigated in the adults of two carabid beetles, Trechisibus antarcticus and Oopterus soledadinus (Coleoptera: Carabidae), which have been introduced to sub-Antarctic […]

11. Modulation of electromagnetic ion cyclotron instability due to interaction with ring current O+during magnetic storms

    We demonstrate that the observed enhancement in the fractional composition equation image of ring current O+ ions during magnetic storms can have a strong controlling effect on the excitation of […]

12. Evidence of more efficient whistler-mode transmission during periods of increased magnetic activity

    In a previous study it was reported that whistler- mode signals received at Faraday, Antarctica (65°S,64°W) and Dunedin, New Zealand (46°S, 171°E) with entry regions in Pacific longitudes (typically from […]
