Cephalopod fauna of South Pacific waters: new information from breeding New Zealand wandering albatrosses
Read more of: Cephalopod fauna of South Pacific waters: new information from breeding New Zealand wandering albatrossesCephalopods play an important ecological role in the Southern Ocean, being the main prey group of numerous top predators. However, their basic ecology and biogeography is still poorly known, particularly […]

Magnetic local time variation and scaling of poleward auroral boundary dynamics
Read more of: Magnetic local time variation and scaling of poleward auroral boundary dynamicsThe balance of dayside and nightside reconnection processes within the Earth’s magnetosphere, and its effect on the amount of open magnetic flux threading the ionosphere is well understood in terms […]

Thick and deformed Antarctic sea ice mapped with autonomous underwater vehicles
Read more of: Thick and deformed Antarctic sea ice mapped with autonomous underwater vehiclesSatellites have documented trends in Antarctic sea-ice extent and its variability for decades, but estimating sea-ice thickness in the Antarctic from remote sensing data remains challenging. In situ observations needed […]

Boundary mixing in Orkney Passage outflow
Read more of: Boundary mixing in Orkney Passage outflowOne of the most remarkable features of contemporary oceanic climate change is the warming and contraction of Antarctic Bottom Water over much of global ocean abyss. These signatures represent changes […]

Winter foraging site fidelity of king penguins breeding at the Falkland Islands
Read more of: Winter foraging site fidelity of king penguins breeding at the Falkland IslandsForaging site fidelity has profound consequences for individual fitness, population processes and the effectiveness of species conservation measures. Accordingly, quantifying site fidelity has become increasingly important in animal movement and […]

Looking through drumlins: testing the application of ground-penetrating radar
Read more of: Looking through drumlins: testing the application of ground-penetrating radarGround-penetrating radar (GPR) is becoming a commonly applied technique in geomorphology. However, its use in the study of subglacial bedforms has yet to be fully explored and exploited. This paper […]

Sensitivity of tropical deep convection in global models: effects of horizontal resolution, surface constraints, and 3D atmospheric nudging
Read more of: Sensitivity of tropical deep convection in global models: effects of horizontal resolution, surface constraints, and 3D atmospheric nudgingWe investigate the ability of global models to capture the spatial patterns of tropical deep convection. Their sensitivity is assessed through changing horizontal resolution, surface flux constraints, and constraining background […]
