Revealing Antarctica’s secrets
Read more of: Revealing Antarctica’s secretsIn the clamour of predictions about future climate changes, it can be difficult to get hold of facts. However, by drilling ice cores from polar ice sheets and analysing them, […]

Structural variations in derivatives of the bacteriochlorophylls of Chlorobiaceae: impact of stratigraphic resolution on depth profiles as revealed by methanolysis
Read more of: Structural variations in derivatives of the bacteriochlorophylls of Chlorobiaceae: impact of stratigraphic resolution on depth profiles as revealed by methanolysisBacteriochlorophylls c and d, recovered from two sedimentary sequences, were converted to bacteriophaeophorbide methyl esters by methanolysis and analysed by atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation liquid chromatography-multi-stage mass spectrometry (APCI LC-MSn).

A Carboniferous necrophagous myodocopid ostracod from Derbyshire, England
Read more of: A Carboniferous necrophagous myodocopid ostracod from Derbyshire, EnglandA monospecific population of cypridinid ostracods (Myodocopida) has been recovered from an ammonoid-bearing concretion of Namurian (Kindescoutian, R1a-b) age in the Bowland Shale Formation of Central England. These deposits represent […]

Cooling process recorded in subglacially erupted rhyolite glasses: rapid quenching, thermal buffering, and the formation of meltwater
Read more of: Cooling process recorded in subglacially erupted rhyolite glasses: rapid quenching, thermal buffering, and the formation of meltwaterThe thermal histories of two subglacial rhyolite glasses from Torfajokull complex of south central Iceland have been determined from changes in the relaxation of enthalpy in the calorimetric glass transition […]

Temporal and spatial components of variability in benthic recruitment, a 5-year temperate example
Read more of: Temporal and spatial components of variability in benthic recruitment, a 5-year temperate exampleDeployment of artificial substrata is a common method of investigating early community development and recruitment, but rarely are such experiments of long enough duration to include even year time scales.

Quantifying assemblage distinctness with time: an example using temperate epibenthos
Read more of: Quantifying assemblage distinctness with time: an example using temperate epibenthosArtificial substrata are an often-used tool in assessing community development; here we quantify the changing presence of functional groups of benthos with replicate, depth, site, and time in order to […]

Mesozooplankton community structure in the Scotia Sea during the CCAMLR 2000 Survey: January-February 2000
Read more of: Mesozooplankton community structure in the Scotia Sea during the CCAMLR 2000 Survey: January-February 2000An analysis of mesozooplankton community structure in the Scotia Sea was carried out, based on 123 RMT1 double oblique hauls (0-200m) taken during the CCAMLR 2000 Survey. Standardized sample data […]
