Strong site-fidelity increases vulnerability of common bottlenose dolphins Tursiops truncatus in a mass tourism destination in the western Mediterranean Sea
Read more of: Strong site-fidelity increases vulnerability of common bottlenose dolphins Tursiops truncatus in a mass tourism destination in the western Mediterranean SeaThe local population of common bottlenose dolphin in the Balearic Islands coastal waters, a mass tourism destination in the western Mediterranean subject to increasing anthropogenic pressures, was monitored over a […]

Individual consistency and sex differences in migration strategies of Scopoli’s shearwaters Calonectris diomedea despite year differences
Read more of: Individual consistency and sex differences in migration strategies of Scopoli’s shearwaters Calonectris diomedea despite year differencesRecently-developed capabilities for tracking the movements of individual birds over the course of a year or longer has provided increasing evidence for consistent individual differences in migration schedules and destinations. […]

Missing driver in the Sun–Earth connection from energetic electron precipitation impacts mesospheric ozone
Read more of: Missing driver in the Sun–Earth connection from energetic electron precipitation impacts mesospheric ozoneEnergetic electron precipitation (EEP) from the Earth’s outer radiation belt continuously affects the chemical composition of the polar mesosphere. EEP can contribute to catalytic ozone loss in the mesosphere through […]

A temperate former West Antarctic ice sheet suggested by an extensive zone of bed channels
Read more of: A temperate former West Antarctic ice sheet suggested by an extensive zone of bed channelsSeveral recent studies predict that the West Antarctic Ice Sheet will become increasingly unstable under warmer conditions. Insights on such change can be assisted through investigations of the subglacial landscape, […]

Dissolution dominating calcification process in polar pteropods close to the point of aragonite undersaturation
Read more of: Dissolution dominating calcification process in polar pteropods close to the point of aragonite undersaturationThecosome pteropods are abundant upper-ocean zooplankton that build aragonite shells. Ocean acidification results in the lowering of aragonite saturation levels in the surface layers, and several incubation studies have shown […]

Variable crustal thickness beneath Thwaites Glacier revealed from airborne gravimetry, possible implications for geothermal heat flux in West Antarctica
Read more of: Variable crustal thickness beneath Thwaites Glacier revealed from airborne gravimetry, possible implications for geothermal heat flux in West AntarcticaThwaites Glacier has one of the largest glacial catchments in West Antarctica. The future stability of Thwaites Glacier’s catchment is of great concern, as this part of the West Antarctic […]

Resource partitioning between incubating and chick-rearing brown boobies and red-tailed tropicbirds on Christmas Island
Read more of: Resource partitioning between incubating and chick-rearing brown boobies and red-tailed tropicbirds on Christmas IslandBackground: In oligotrophic tropical marine environments, the main mechanism explaining the coexistence of sympatric seabirds is segregation by habitat or segregation by prey within the same habitat. Both types of […]

Comparative nutritional ecology of grass-feeding in a sub-Antarctic beetle: the impact of introduced species on Hydromedion sparsutum from South Georgia
Read more of: Comparative nutritional ecology of grass-feeding in a sub-Antarctic beetle: the impact of introduced species on Hydromedion sparsutum from South GeorgiaSouth Georgia has many introduced plant and animal species, a consequence of its long history of human habitation. Introduced reindeer have a strong effect on the vegetation of the Stromness […]
