Insights into ice stream dynamics through modeling their response to tidal forcing
Read more of: Insights into ice stream dynamics through modeling their response to tidal forcingThe tidal forcing of ice streams at their ocean boundary can serve as a natural experiment to gain an insight into their dynamics and constrain the basal sliding law. A […]

Assessing population viability while accounting for demographic and environmental uncertainty
Read more of: Assessing population viability while accounting for demographic and environmental uncertaintyPredicting the future trend and viability of populations is an essential task in ecology. Because many populations respond to changing environments, uncertainty surrounding environmental responses must be incorporated into population […]

Diversity and bioactivity of actinomycetes from Signy Island terrestrial soils, maritime Antarctic
Read more of: Diversity and bioactivity of actinomycetes from Signy Island terrestrial soils, maritime AntarcticThe Antarctic represents a largely untapped source for isolation of new microorganisms with potential to produce bioactive natural products. Actinomycetes are of special interest among such microorganisms as they are […]

The Ellsworth Subglacial Highlands: Inception and retreat of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet
Read more of: The Ellsworth Subglacial Highlands: Inception and retreat of the West Antarctic Ice SheetAntarctic subglacial highlands are where the Antarctic ice sheets first developed and the “pinning points” where retreat phases of the marine-based sectors of the ice sheet are impeded. Due to […]

Climate science: A resolution of the Antarctic paradox
Read more of: Climate science: A resolution of the Antarctic paradoxA combination of observational data and modelling reveals the potential significance of the north and tropical Atlantic Ocean in driving change in Antarctic winds and sea ice on decadal timescales […]

Modelling of Kealey Ice Rise, Antarctica, reveals stable ice-flow conditions in East Ellsworth Land over the millennia
Read more of: Modelling of Kealey Ice Rise, Antarctica, reveals stable ice-flow conditions in East Ellsworth Land over the millenniaFlow at ice divides, their shape, size and internal structure depend not only on local conditions, but also on the flow regimes and past histories of the surrounding ice masses. […]

Met Office unified model high resolution simulations of a strong wind event in Antarctica
Read more of: Met Office unified model high resolution simulations of a strong wind event in AntarcticaDuring winter much of the Antarctic coast is susceptible to severe and hazardous strong wind events (SWEs) associated with the enhancement of katabatic winds by synoptic weather systems. In this […]

Diet of South American fur seals at the Falkland Islands
Read more of: Diet of South American fur seals at the Falkland IslandsSouth American fur seals (SAFS) (Arctophoca australis1) are one of the most widely distributed otariids breeding on both the Atlantic and Pacific sides of South America, from Uruguay to Peru […]

Sensitivity of the Weddell Sea sector ice streams to sub-shelf melting and surface accumulation
Read more of: Sensitivity of the Weddell Sea sector ice streams to sub-shelf melting and surface accumulationA recent ocean modelling study indicates that possible changes in circulation may bring warm deep-ocean water into direct contact with the grounding lines of the Filchner–Ronne ice streams, suggesting the […]
