2. Characterizing the glaciological conditions at Halvfarryggen ice dome, Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica

   We present a comprehensive approach (including field data, remote sensing and an anisotropic ice-flow model) to characterize Halvfarryggen ice dome in coastal Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. This is a potential […]

3. A comprehensive isotopic investigation of habitat preferences in nonbreeding albatrosses from the Southern Ocean

   Albatrosses are among the world’s most endangered seabirds. Th reats during the nonbreeding period have major impacts on their population dynamics, but for most species, detailed information on distribution and […]

4. Lake highstands in the Pensacola Mountains and Shackleton Range 4300-2250 cal. yr BP: Evidence of a warm climate anomaly in the interior of Antarctica

   We surveyed and dated the former shorelines of one lake in the Shackleton Range and two lakes in the Pensacola Mountains, situated inland of the Weddell Sea embayment Antarctica between […]

5. Modelling the influence of copepod behaviour on faecal pellet export at high latitudes

   The contribution of faecal pellet (FP) production by zooplankton to the downward flux of particulate organic carbon (POC) can vary from 70 m) occurred when diel VM took place. Simulated […]

6. An initial assessment of Antarctic Sea ice extent in the CMIP5 models

   This paper examines the annual cycle and trends in Antarctic sea ice extent (SIE) for 18 models used in phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) that were […]

7. Geomagnetic activity signatures in wintertime stratosphere wind, temperature, and wave response

   We analyzed ERA-40 and ERA Interim meteorological re-analysis data for signatures of geomagnetic activity in zonal mean zonal wind, temperature, and Eliassen-Palm flux in the Northern Hemisphere extended winter (November–March). […]

8. Environmental management of a scientific field camp in Maritime Antarctica: reconciling research impacts with conservation goals in remote ice-free areas

   Currently, a substantial proportion of Antarctic research is carried out through deployment of field camps, but little detailed information on the running of these facilities is often available. The remoteness […]

11. Computer animation of bathymetry around Orkney Passage, Southern Ocean

    This is a short video animation of a “flythrough” of Orkney Passage, between the Weddell and Scotia Seas, using multi-beam sonar and satellite gravity-based measurements. Much of the sonar data […]

12. The freshwater system west of the Antarctic Peninsula: spatial and temporal changes

    Climate change west of the Antarctic Peninsula is the most rapid of anywhere in the Southern Hemisphere, with associated changes in the rates and distributions of freshwater inputs to the […]
