VLF, magnetic and Pi2 substorm signatures
Read more of: VLF, magnetic and Pi2 substorm signaturesWe carried out a superposed epoch analysis, using a database of substorm chorus events observed at Halley, Antarctica, within an hour of magnetic midnight, to define a set of 123 […]

Erosional history of the Transantarctic Mountains deduced from sand grain detrital modes in CRP-2/2A, Victoria Land Basin, Antarctica
Read more of: Erosional history of the Transantarctic Mountains deduced from sand grain detrital modes in CRP-2/2A, Victoria Land Basin, AntarcticaDynamic provenance variations are deduced from sand-grain detrital modes in samples obtained from the CRP-2/2A drillcore. Below an important unconformity at 307 metres below sea floor (mbsf), sand grains in […]

Induced in vitro phagocytosis of the Antarctic starfish Odontaster validus (Koehler 1906) at 0°C
Read more of: Induced in vitro phagocytosis of the Antarctic starfish Odontaster validus (Koehler 1906) at 0°CPhagocytosis was studied in vitro using coelomic fluid of the Antarctic starfish Odontaster validus at 0°C. The number of coelomocytes present was determined and the phagocytic activity of the phagocytic […]

Temperature adaptations of terrestrial arthropods of the Yenisey Region of Siberia (Asian Ecological Transect)
Read more of: Temperature adaptations of terrestrial arthropods of the Yenisey Region of Siberia (Asian Ecological Transect)Field studies and sampling of terrestrial invertebrates for ecophysiological experiments were undertaken in the summer of 1994 and 1995 in different geographic regions of the Asian Transect (Krasnoyarsk to Karaul) […]

Factors controlling nitrate in ice cores: Evidence from the Dome C deep ice core
Read more of: Factors controlling nitrate in ice cores: Evidence from the Dome C deep ice coreIn order to estimate past changes in atmospheric NOx concentration, nitrate, an oxidation product of NOx, has often been measured in polar ice cores. In the frame of the European […]

The effect of snow accumulation on imaging riometer performance
Read more of: The effect of snow accumulation on imaging riometer performanceIn January 1998 an imaging riometer system was deployed at Halley, Antarctica (76°S, 27°W), involving the construction of an array of 64 crossed-dipole antennas and a ground plane. Weather conditions […]

Temporal properties of magnetospheric line radiation
Read more of: Temporal properties of magnetospheric line radiationMagnetospheric line radiation (MLR) events are relatively narrowband VLF signals that sometimes drift in frequency and have been observed in both ground-based and satellite data sets. We present the results […]
