The diet of black-browed albatrosses at the Diego Ramirez Islands, Chile
Read more of: The diet of black-browed albatrosses at the Diego Ramirez Islands, ChileThe diet of black-browed albatrosses was studied at Gonzalo Island, Diego Ramirez, Chile, during the early chick-rearing periods of 2000, 2001, and 2002. Diet composition was determined by sampling chick-stomach […]

A regression model for the mass-balance distribution of the Vatnajokull ice cap, Iceland
Read more of: A regression model for the mass-balance distribution of the Vatnajokull ice cap, IcelandA non-linear regression model describing the mass-balance distribution of the whole Vatnajokull ice cap, Iceland, for the years 1992-2000 is presented. All available data from some 40 locations over this […]

Regional and seasonal differences in microplankton biomass, productivity, and structure across the Scotia Sea: Implications for the export of biogenic carbon
Read more of: Regional and seasonal differences in microplankton biomass, productivity, and structure across the Scotia Sea: Implications for the export of biogenic carbonSurveys of the microplankton communities of the Scotia Sea, Southern Ocean, were carried out during three separate seasons of interest, spring, summer, and autumn of consecutive years. The surveys were […]

Comparative seasonal biogeography of mineralising nannoplankton in the Scotia Sea: Emiliania huxleyi, Fragilariopsis spp. and Tetraparma pelagica
Read more of: Comparative seasonal biogeography of mineralising nannoplankton in the Scotia Sea: Emiliania huxleyi, Fragilariopsis spp. and Tetraparma pelagicaThe Southern Ocean is an important biogeochemical region on a global scale, in which mineralising phytoplankton play a role in cycling energy, carbon and nutrients. Mineralising phytoplankton with cells 2–20 […]

Substantial primary production in the land-remote region of the central and northern Scotia Sea
Read more of: Substantial primary production in the land-remote region of the central and northern Scotia SeaThe Scotia Sea area has high productivity relative to the Southern Ocean as a whole, but this displays strong latitudinal and longitudinal gradients. Elucidating the extent of these from a […]

Different age response of zircon and monazite during the tectono-metamorphic evolution of a high grade paragneiss from the Ruhla Crystalline Complex, central Germany
Read more of: Different age response of zircon and monazite during the tectono-metamorphic evolution of a high grade paragneiss from the Ruhla Crystalline Complex, central GermanyResults of TIMS, SIMS and SEM analyses show that zircon and monazite in a high-grade paragneiss of the Ruhla Crystalline Complex, central Germany, were formed and/or altered during different stages […]

Feeding strategies and diets of breeding grey-headed and wandering albatrosses at South Georgia
Read more of: Feeding strategies and diets of breeding grey-headed and wandering albatrosses at South GeorgiaThe foraging areas and diets of the grey-headed albatross Thalassarche chrysostoma and wandering albatross Diomedea exulans were studied in March/April 2000 at Bird Island, South Georgia, during their respective chick-rearing […]

Inter-annual variation in the cephalopod component of the diet of the wandering albatross, Diomedea exulans, breeding at Bird Island, South Georgia
Read more of: Inter-annual variation in the cephalopod component of the diet of the wandering albatross, Diomedea exulans, breeding at Bird Island, South GeorgiaCephalopods play an important role in the diet of many predators of the Southern Ocean. We investigated the cephalopod component of the diet of the wandering albatross, during breeding at […]

Interannual variation in the diets of two albatross species breeding at South Georgia: implications for breeding performance
Read more of: Interannual variation in the diets of two albatross species breeding at South Georgia: implications for breeding performanceThe diet and breeding performance of Grey-headed Albatrosses Thalassarche chrysostoma and Black-browed Albatrosses Diomedea melanophris breeding at Bird Island, South Georgia, were studied simultaneously during the chick-rearing period between 1996 […]

Responses of microplankton community structure to iron addition in the Scotia Sea
Read more of: Responses of microplankton community structure to iron addition in the Scotia SeaThe Southern Ocean is largely a High Nutrient Low Chlorophyll (HNLC) region where macronutrient concentrations are high and phytoplankton productivity is low. However, there are productive ‘hot spots’ that sustain […]

Detection of artificially generated ULF waves by the FAST spacecraft and its application to the ‘tagging’ of narrow flux tubes
Read more of: Detection of artificially generated ULF waves by the FAST spacecraft and its application to the ‘tagging’ of narrow flux tubes[1] Recently, Robinson et al. [2000] presented a brief report on the artificial generation of ULF waves by high power ionospheric modification and their subsequent detection by the Fast Auroral […]
