Oceanic and atmospheric forcing of Larsen C Ice-Shelf thinning
Read more of: Oceanic and atmospheric forcing of Larsen C Ice-Shelf thinningThe catastrophic collapses of Larsen A and B ice shelves on the eastern Antarctic Peninsula have caused their tributary glaciers to accelerate, contributing to sea-level rise and freshening the Antarctic […]

Global warming caused by afforestation in the Southern Hemisphere
Read more of: Global warming caused by afforestation in the Southern HemisphereUsing an earth system model of intermediate complexity (EMIC), the McGill Paleoclimate Model-2 (MPM-2), this paper examines the climatic biogeophysical effects of afforestation in the southern hemisphere (SH) with a […]

Holocene glacier fluctuations
Read more of: Holocene glacier fluctuationsA global overview of glacier advances and retreats (grouped by regions and by millennia) for the Holocene is compiled from previous studies. The reconstructions of glacier fluctuations are based on […]

Ice Sheets and the Anthropocene
Read more of: Ice Sheets and the AnthropoceneIce could play a role in identifying and defining the Anthropocene. The recurrence of northern hemisphere glaciation and the stability of the Greenland Ice Sheet are both potentially vulnerable to […]

Contrasting Trans-Atlantic Migratory Routes of Nearctic Purple SandpipersCalidris maritimaAssociated with Low Pressure Systems in Spring and Winter
Read more of: Contrasting Trans-Atlantic Migratory Routes of Nearctic Purple SandpipersCalidris maritimaAssociated with Low Pressure Systems in Spring and WinterBird migration is generally scheduled to avoid other energetically expensive events in the annual cycle (e.g. moult) and seasons when survival can be difficult (e.g. northern winters). Purple Sandpipers winter […]

Spatial and seasonal variability of the air-sea equilibration timescale of carbon dioxide
Read more of: Spatial and seasonal variability of the air-sea equilibration timescale of carbon dioxideThe exchange of carbon dioxide between the ocean and the atmosphere tends to bring waters within the mixed layer toward equilibrium by reducing the partial pressure gradient across the air-water […]

Genetic Diversity of Antarctic Fish
Read more of: Genetic Diversity of Antarctic FishCorrect species identification is fundamental to all areas of biology, but particularly the policy related areas of conservation and fisheries management. To enable guidelines to be developed for environmental management […]
