Path-Planning on a Spherical Surface with Disturbances and Exclusion Zones
Read more of: Path-Planning on a Spherical Surface with Disturbances and Exclusion ZonesAn algorithm is presented for path-planning in a non-uniform spheroid mesh containing exclusion zones, vector and scalar fields. The mesh models physical environments such as ocean regions, together with a […]

Dietary adaptations along the northern limit of distribution: what does the smooth snake Coronella austriaca eat in Norway? Metabarcoding of stomach content and visual analysis of faeces
Read more of: Dietary adaptations along the northern limit of distribution: what does the smooth snake Coronella austriaca eat in Norway? Metabarcoding of stomach content and visual analysis of faecesUnderstanding how species survive at their poleward limits of distribution is of interest in species conservation, particularly in light of global warming and predictions of shifting distributions of both predators […]

Statistical Analysis of Comet Disconnection Events Using STEREO HI and a Data-assimilative Solar Wind Model
Read more of: Statistical Analysis of Comet Disconnection Events Using STEREO HI and a Data-assimilative Solar Wind ModelComets tails can reveal information about the local solar wind conditions. They can exhibit various signatures of interactions with the solar wind including bending, developing kinks, and sometimes undergoing tail […]

Recent benthic foraminifera communities offshore of Thwaites Glacier in the Amundsen Sea, Antarctica: implications for interpretations of fossil assemblages
Read more of: Recent benthic foraminifera communities offshore of Thwaites Glacier in the Amundsen Sea, Antarctica: implications for interpretations of fossil assemblagesBenthic foraminiferal assemblages are useful tools for paleoenvironmental studies but rely on the calibration of live populations to modern environmental conditions to allow interpretation of this proxy downcore. In regions […]

Long-term Variability and Tendencies of the Semidiurnal Tide in Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere from Meteor Radar Observations Over Esrange (67.9°N, 21.1°E)
Read more of: Long-term Variability and Tendencies of the Semidiurnal Tide in Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere from Meteor Radar Observations Over Esrange (67.9°N, 21.1°E)Long-term variability and tendencies in monthly mean semidiurnal tide (12-hr) in zonal (U12) and meridional (V12) winds are investigated in northern polar mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT; ∼80–100 km) using […]

An alternative representation of Synthetic Aperture Radar images as an aid to the interpretation of englacial observations
Read more of: An alternative representation of Synthetic Aperture Radar images as an aid to the interpretation of englacial observationsGround-penetrating radar reveals subsurface geometry and ice stratigraphy that contains information about past and present dynamics of the cryosphere. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a processing technique based on averaging […]

Climate’s firm grip on glacier ablation in the Cordillera Darwin Icefield, Tierra del Fuego
Read more of: Climate’s firm grip on glacier ablation in the Cordillera Darwin Icefield, Tierra del FuegoThe Cordillera Darwin Icefield (CDI) in Tierra del Fuego is one of the largest temperate ice bodies in the Southern Hemisphere. We simulate the climatic energy and mass balance of […]

Subglacial landscape formation and sediment discharge: relating basal conditions to bedform dimensions and properties at Rutford Ice Stream, West Antarctica
Read more of: Subglacial landscape formation and sediment discharge: relating basal conditions to bedform dimensions and properties at Rutford Ice Stream, West AntarcticaBasal conditions that facilitate fast ice flow are still poorly understood and their parameterization in ice‐flow models results in high uncertainties in ice‐flow and consequent sea‐level rise projections. Direct observations […]

Developing a Southern Ocean Marine Ecosystem Model Ensemble to Assess Climate Risks and Uncertainties
Read more of: Developing a Southern Ocean Marine Ecosystem Model Ensemble to Assess Climate Risks and UncertaintiesClimate change could irreversibly modify Southern Ocean ecosystems. Marine ecosystem model (MEM) ensembles can assist policy making by projecting future changes and allowing the evaluation and assessment of alternative management […]
