2. A novel miniature confocal microscope/Raman spectrometer system for biomolecular analysis on future Mars missions after Antarctic trials

   Biomolecules, such as the productive and protective pigments of photosynthetic organisms, are good biomarkers in extreme Antarctic deserts as analogues of early Mars. Laser Raman technology at long wavelengths which […]

3. Molecular evidence for genetic mixing of Arctic and Antarctic subpolar populations of planktonic foraminifers

   Bipolarity, the presence of a species in the high latitudes separated by a gap in distribution across the tropics, is a well-known pattern of global species distribution. But the question […]

4. Cephalopod diet of the southern elephant seal, Mirounga leonina, at King George Island, South Shetland Islands

   In the summer of 1995/96, 25 southern elephant seals, Mirounga leonina, were stomach lavaged at Stranger Point, King George Island, South Shetland Islands. Cephalopod remains were present in 72% of […]

5. Energy balance and cold adaptation in the octopus Pareledone charcoti

   A complete energy balance equation is calculated for the Antarctic octopus Pareledone charcoti at 0°C. Energy used in respiration, growth, and excretion of nitrogenous and faecal waste, was recorded along […]

8. Fatty acid composition as an indicator of carnivory in Antarctic krill,Euphausia superba

   In a previous study at South Georgia, carnivory was invoked as a cause of high polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) content of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba. To examine this, krill were […]

10. The nature and origin of taxonomic diversity gradients in marine bivalves

    Bivalves have been fundamental in developing the understanding of large-scale biodiversity patterns in the marine realm. A new study based on 29 regional bivalve faunas indicates that both latitudinal and […]

11. Intrinsic and extrinsic controls on the diversification of the Bivalvia

    At the present day the Class Bivalvia comprises some 8000 species, sub-divided into approximately 700 genera, 107 families, and 41 superfamilies (Morton, 1996, and references therein). It represents one of […]

12. Evolution of taxonomic diversity gradients in the marine realm: evidence from the composition of Recent bivalve faunas

    A major new inventory of living marine Bivalvia (Mollusca) is based on 29 regional faunas. These again pick out strong latitudinal and longitudinal gradients in taxonomic diversity, but there are […]
