Impact of Deep Water Formation on Antarctic Circumpolar Transport During Gateway Opening
Read more of: Impact of Deep Water Formation on Antarctic Circumpolar Transport During Gateway OpeningAmbiguity over the Eocene opening times of the Tasman Gateway and Drake Passage makes it difficult to determine the initiation time of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current. If the Tasman Gateway […]

Evolution of ice rises in the Fimbul Ice Shelf, Dronning Maud Land, over the last millennium
Read more of: Evolution of ice rises in the Fimbul Ice Shelf, Dronning Maud Land, over the last millenniumWe investigate two ice rises, Kupol Moskovskij and Kupol Ciolkovskogo, in the Fimbul Ice Shelf, East Antarctica, situated ~60 km from each other but differing in their glaciological settings. We […]

Steppe-tundra composition and deglacial floristic turnover in interior Alaska revealed by sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA)
Read more of: Steppe-tundra composition and deglacial floristic turnover in interior Alaska revealed by sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA)When tracing vegetation dynamics over long timescales, obtaining enough floristic information to gain a detailed understanding of past communities and their transitions can be challenging. The first high-resolution sedimentary DNA […]

Walruses from space: walrus counts in simultaneous remotely piloted aircraft system versus very high-resolution satellite imagery
Read more of: Walruses from space: walrus counts in simultaneous remotely piloted aircraft system versus very high-resolution satellite imageryRegular counts of walruses (Odobenus rosmarus) across their pan-Arctic range are necessary to determine accurate population trends and in turn understand how current rapid changes in their habitat, such as […]

Mercury Concentrations in Feathers of Albatrosses and Large Petrels at South Georgia: Contemporary Patterns and Comparisons with Past Decades
Read more of: Mercury Concentrations in Feathers of Albatrosses and Large Petrels at South Georgia: Contemporary Patterns and Comparisons with Past DecadesMercury (Hg) is an environmental contaminant that can negatively impact the health of humans and wildlife. Albatrosses and large petrels show some of the highest levels of Hg contamination among […]

Trajectory of increased iceberg kill-off in West Antarctica’s shallows [Correspondence]
Read more of: Trajectory of increased iceberg kill-off in West Antarctica’s shallows [Correspondence]Compared with low latitude coasts, many polar latitudes are still little impacted by intense and direct anthropogenic stressors. Climate forcing is now bringing rapid physical change to nearshore polar realms. […]

CMIP6 Models Rarely Simulate Antarctic Winter Sea‐Ice Anomalies as Large as Observed in 2023
Read more of: CMIP6 Models Rarely Simulate Antarctic Winter Sea‐Ice Anomalies as Large as Observed in 2023In 2023, Antarctic sea-ice extent (SIE) reached record lows, with winter SIE falling to 2.5Mkm2 below the satellite era average. With this multi-model study, we investigate the occurrence of anomalies […]

At‑sea distribution of marine predators around South Georgia during austral winter, with implications for fisheries management
Read more of: At‑sea distribution of marine predators around South Georgia during austral winter, with implications for fisheries managementThe sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia is surrounded by highly productive waters, supporting dense aggregations of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba), a vital food source for globally important seabird and marine […]

Investigating the physiological ecology of mesopelagic zooplankton in the Scotia Sea (Southern Ocean) using lipid and stable isotope signatures
Read more of: Investigating the physiological ecology of mesopelagic zooplankton in the Scotia Sea (Southern Ocean) using lipid and stable isotope signaturesThe mesopelagic zooplankton community plays an important role in the cycling and sequestration of carbon via the biological pump. However, little is known about the physiology and ecology of key […]
