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 […]

Variability in transport pathways on and around the South Georgia shelf, Southern Ocean: Implications for recruitment and retention
Read more of: Variability in transport pathways on and around the South Georgia shelf, Southern Ocean: Implications for recruitment and retentionThe waters around South Georgia are among the most productive in the Southern Ocean, with zooplankton populations close to the island, in particular Antarctic krill, supporting vast colonies of higher […]

Examination of a physically based, high-resolution, distributed Arctic temperature-index melt model, on Midtre Lovénbreen, Svalbard
Read more of: Examination of a physically based, high-resolution, distributed Arctic temperature-index melt model, on Midtre Lovénbreen, SvalbardImprovements in our ability to model runoff from glaciers remain an important scientific goal. This paper describes a new temperature-radiation-index glacier melt model specifically enhanced for use in High-Arctic environments, […]

Acclimation and thermal tolerance in Antarctic marine ectotherms
Read more of: Acclimation and thermal tolerance in Antarctic marine ectothermsAntarctic marine species have evolved in one of the coldest and most temperature-stable marine environments on Earth. They have long been classified as being stenothermal, or having a poor capacity […]

Role of squid in the Southern Ocean pelagic ecosystem and the possible consequences of climate change
Read more of: Role of squid in the Southern Ocean pelagic ecosystem and the possible consequences of climate changeSouthern Ocean squid are important predators and prey and are a potential fishery resource. Their future under climate change is analysed from predictions of change by 2100 and assessments of […]

Habitat-mediated population limitation in a colonial central-place forager: the sky is not the limit for the black-browed albatross
Read more of: Habitat-mediated population limitation in a colonial central-place forager: the sky is not the limit for the black-browed albatrossAnimal populations are frequently limited by the availability of food or of habitat. In central-place foragers, the cost of accessing these resources is distance-dependent rather than uniform in space. However, […]

Retreat of Pine Island Glacier controlled by marine ice-sheet instability
Read more of: Retreat of Pine Island Glacier controlled by marine ice-sheet instabilityOver the past 40 years Pine Island Glacier in West Antarctica has thinned at an accelerating rate, so that at present it is the largest single contributor to sea-level rise […]

Experimental influence of pH on the early life-stages of sea urchins I: different rates of introduction give rise to different responses
Read more of: Experimental influence of pH on the early life-stages of sea urchins I: different rates of introduction give rise to different responsesMany early life-stage response studies to ocean acidification utilize gametes/offspring obtained from ambient-sourced parents, which are then directly introduced to experimentally altered seawater pH. This approach may produce a stress […]
