1. Fitting Euphausia superba into Southern Ocean food-web models: a review of data sources and their limitations

   This paper aims to provide the overview needed to include krill in food-web models and to guide modellers to key sources of data. It describes the strengths of each method […]

2. An overview of Southern Ocean zooplankton data: abundance, biomass, feeding and functional relationships

   There is an enormous amount of data on Southern Ocean (SO) zooplankton, mostly on their distribution with a minority addressing rate processes. This review aims to summarise these data and […]

3. The role of fish as predators of krill (Euphausia superba) and other pelagic resources in the Southern Ocean

   Krill forms an important part of the diet of many Antarctic fish species. An understanding of the role of fish as krill predators in the Southern Ocean is critical to […]

4. The biology, ecology and development of fishery management advice for the anomuran crabs at South Georgia (CCAMLR Subarea 48.3)

   This review summarises the available information on the biology and ecology of the lithodids at South Georgia and provides an overview of the development of a management regime for them. […]

5. Evaluating highly branched isoprenoid (HBI) biomarkers as a novel Antarctic sea-ice proxy in deep ocean glacial age sediments

   Antarctic sea-ice plays a primary role in the climate system, potentially modulating interhemispheric millennial-scale climate change and deglacial warming. Recently, microfossil proxy data have provided important insights into this potential […]

6. Mixed pyroxenite-peridotite sources for mafic and ultramafic dikes from the Antarctic segment of the Karoo continental flood basalt province

   Primitive rocks that are related to continental flood basalts are rare, but often reveal crucial information on the ultimate sources of these huge outpourings of mantle-derived magma. Here we present […]

7. Migration timing and wintering areas of three species of flycatchers (Tyrannus) breeding in the Great Plains of North America

   Descriptions of intra- and interspecific variation in migratory patterns of closely related species are rare yet valuable because they can help assess how differences in ecology and life-history strategies drive […]

8. Long-distance bird migration within South America revealed by light-level geolocators

   Little is known about the timing of migration, migration routes, and migratory connectivity of most of the >230 species of birds that breed at south temperate latitudes of South America […]

9. The vision for a Southern Ocean Observing System

   The Southern Ocean is fundamentally important to the Earth system, influencing global climate, biogeochemical and ecological cycles. Limited observations suggest the Southern Ocean is changing, yet chronic under-sampling makes the […]

10. Changes in seasonal expression patterns of ecdysone receptor, retinoid X receptor and an A-type allatostatin in the copepod, Calanus finmarchicus, in a sea loch environment: An investigation of possible mediators of diapause

    The marine copepod, Calanus finmarchicus, is a crucial component of the pelagic food web in the North Atlantic and peripheral seas where it is a major player in biogeochemical cycles […]

11. New models of North West European Holocene palaeogeography and inundation

    This paper presents new 500 year interval palaeogeographic models for Britain, Ireland and the North West French coast from 11000 cal. BP to present. These models are used to calculate […]

12. Diapause induces changes in the composition and biophysical properties of lipids in larvae of the European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae)

    This study compares the composition and biophysical properties of lipids in non-diapausing and diapausing fifth instar larvae of Ostrinia nubilalis Hubn. (Lepidoptera: Crambidae). The majority of fat body lipids in […]
