Pelagic provinces of the world: A biogeographic classification of the world’s surface pelagic waters
Read more of: Pelagic provinces of the world: A biogeographic classification of the world’s surface pelagic watersOff-shelf waters cover 66% of the planet. Growing concerns about the state of natural resources in these waters, and of future threats have led to a growing movement to improve […]

Distribution, lithofacies and environmental context of Neogene glacial sequences on James Ross and Vega islands, Antarctic Peninsula
Read more of: Distribution, lithofacies and environmental context of Neogene glacial sequences on James Ross and Vega islands, Antarctic PeninsulaConsiderable controversy exists concerning the stability of the Antarctic Ice Sheet during the Neogene Period. The northern Antarctic Peninsula is in a critical position in this debate as it represents […]

Widespread amplification of amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) in marine Antarctic animals
Read more of: Widespread amplification of amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs) in marine Antarctic animalsAlthough recent years have witnessed a rapid growth in the number of genetic studies of Antarctic organisms, relatively few studies have so far used nuclear markers, possibly due to the […]
