The use of acoustics to monitor burrow-nesting white-chinned petrels Procellaria aequinoctialis at Bird Island, South Georgia
Read more of: The use of acoustics to monitor burrow-nesting white-chinned petrels Procellaria aequinoctialis at Bird Island, South GeorgiaTape recordings of two types of vocalisations were used to assess burrow occupancy by white-chinned petrels (Procellaria aequinoctialis) at South Georgia. Birds responded to the rattle call on 74% of […]

Anomalous temperatures in central Scotia Sea sediments – Bottom water variation or pore water circulation in old ocean crust
Read more of: Anomalous temperatures in central Scotia Sea sediments – Bottom water variation or pore water circulation in old ocean crustWe report low temperature gradients (from 60% to 12% of geothermal), and extrapolated temperatures offset from modern bottom water temperatures, in sediments from the central Scotia Sea. We examine possible […]

Surface phosphomonoesterase activity of a natural immobilized system: Chroococcidioposis in an Antarctic desert rock
Read more of: Surface phosphomonoesterase activity of a natural immobilized system: Chroococcidioposis in an Antarctic desert rockThe phosphomonoesterase activity of a microbialcommunity dominated by Chroococcidiopsis in arock sample from the Antarctic dry desert was comparedwith that of a non-axenic culture of thecyanobacterium isolated from the same […]

Widespread complex flow in the interior of the Antarctic Ice Sheet
Read more of: Widespread complex flow in the interior of the Antarctic Ice SheetIt has been suggested that as much as 90% of the discharge from the Antarctic Ice Sheet is drained through a small number of fast-moving ice streams and outlet glaciers […]

Thermal tolerance and acclimation response of larvae of the sub-Antarctic beetle Hydromedion sparsutum (Coleoptera: Perimylopidae)
Read more of: Thermal tolerance and acclimation response of larvae of the sub-Antarctic beetle Hydromedion sparsutum (Coleoptera: Perimylopidae)Hydromedion sparsutum is a locally abundant herbivorous beetle on the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia, often living in close association with the tussock grass Parodiochloa flabellata. Over a 4-day period […]

Tropical daytime lower D-region dependence on sunspot number
Read more of: Tropical daytime lower D-region dependence on sunspot numberObserved phases and amplitudes of VLF radio signals propagating on (near) tropical all-sea paths, both short, ∼300 km, and long, ∼10 Mm, are used to find daytime parameter changes for […]
