2. The foraging behaviour and energetics of wandering albatrosses brooding chicks

   The energy expenditure of ten (five male, five female) wandering albatrosses (Diomedea exulans Linnaeus 1758) brooding chicks on Bird Island, South Georgia, was measured using doubly-labelled water. At-sea foraging behaviour […]

3. The relationship between foraging behaviour and energy expenditure in Antarctic fur seals

   By using time-depth recorders to measure diving activity and the doubly-labelled water method to determine energy expenditure, the relationship between foraging behaviour and energy expenditure was investigated in nine Antarctic […]

4. Measuring the body composition of Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella): validation of hydrogen isotope dilution

   We examined the accuracy of hydrogen isotope dilution (tritium and deuterium) as a means of determining total body water (TBW), and hence body composition, by comparison with whole-carcass chemical analysis […]

5. Milk consumption and growth efficiency in Antarctic fur seal (Arctocephalus gazella) pups

   The body composition, milk consumption, and growth efficiency of Antarctic fur seal (Arctocephalus gazella) pups were measured over three consecutive lactation periods (1990–1992) at Bird Island, South Georgia. The body […]

6. Orthomagmatic quartz and post-magmatic carbonate veins in a reported porphyry copper deposit, Andean Intrusive Suite, Livingston Island, South Shetland Islands

   A previously reported porphyry Cu + Mo deposit in an Eocene pluton within the South Shetland Island magmatic arc has been re-interpreted as three distinct hydrothermal assemblages. The oldest assemblage […]

7. Microbial dynamics in coastal waters of East Antarctica:herbivory by heterotrophic dinoflagellates

   Heterotrophic dinoflagellates and their herbivory were quantified at a coastal site in East Antarctica in the vicinity of the Australian Antarctic station of Davis (68° 35′ S, 77° 58′ E). […]

8. Microbial ecology of sea ice at a coastal Antarctic site:community composition, biomass and temporal change

   The coastal sea ice in the vicinity of Davis Station, Antarctica (68* 35′ S, 77* 58′ E), supported a diverse microbial community which varied in composition and biomass in response […]

10. Digenean, monogenean and cestode infection of inshore fish at the South Orkney Islands

    Notothenioid fish of 3 species – 23 immature Notothenia coriiceps, 4 Gobionotothen gibberifrons and 11 Chaenocephalus aceratus, from the coastal zone at the South Orkney Islands were examined to determine […]

12. Ice nucleation activity in a New Zealand alpine cockroach Celatoblatta quinquemaculata (Dictyoptera: Blattidae)

    The New Zealand alpine cockroach Celatoblatta quinquemaculata (Dictyoptera: Blattidae) survives temperatures up to 5°c below its supercooling point (scp) of -5.4°C in summer-acclimated samples. This high Scp suggests that C. […]
