Pelagic distribution of Gould’s Petrel (Pterodroma leucoptera): linking shipboard and onshore observations with remote-tracking data
Read more of: Pelagic distribution of Gould’s Petrel (Pterodroma leucoptera): linking shipboard and onshore observations with remote-tracking dataThis study describes and compares the pelagic distribution and migratory patterns of the two subspecies of Gould’s Petrel (Pterodroma leucoptera), and contrasts data obtained from tracking birds at sea using […]

Trans-equatorial migration of Short-tailed Shearwaters revealed by geolocators
Read more of: Trans-equatorial migration of Short-tailed Shearwaters revealed by geolocatorsUntil recent decades, details of the migratory movements of seabirds remained largely unknown owing to the difficulties in following individuals at sea. Subsequent advances in biologging technology have greatly increased […]

The atmospheric boundary layer structure over the open and ice-covered Baltic Sea: in situ measurements compared to simulations with the regional model REMO
Read more of: The atmospheric boundary layer structure over the open and ice-covered Baltic Sea: in situ measurements compared to simulations with the regional model REMOThe regional model REMO, which is the atmospheric component of the coupled atmosphere–ice–ocean–land climate model system BALTIMOS, is tested with respect to its ability to simulate the atmospheric boundary layer […]

Factors controlling the last interglacial climate as simulated by LOVECLIM1.3
Read more of: Factors controlling the last interglacial climate as simulated by LOVECLIM1.3The last interglacial (LIG), also identified to the Eemian in Europe, began at approximately 130 kyr BP and ended at about 115 kyr BP (before present). More and more proxy-based […]

The effects and correction of the geometric factor for the POES/MEPED electron flux instrument using a multisatellite comparison
Read more of: The effects and correction of the geometric factor for the POES/MEPED electron flux instrument using a multisatellite comparisonMeasurements from the Polar-Orbiting Environmental Satellite (POES) Medium Energy Proton and Electron Detector (MEPED) instrument are widely used in studies into radiation belt dynamics and atmospheric coupling. However, this instrument […]

Low-latitude ionospheric D region dependence on solar zenith angle
Read more of: Low-latitude ionospheric D region dependence on solar zenith anglePhase and amplitude measurements of VLF radio signals on a short, nearly all-sea path between two Hawaiian Islands are used to find the height and sharpness of the lower edge […]

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 […]
