1. The effect of simultaneous temperature, pressure and stress on the experimental annealing of spontaneous fission tracks in apatite: a brief overview

   Tracks made in minerals by the electronic stopping Of uranium fission fragments provide a modern geological dating tool, and are believed also to yield specific information on the low-temperature thermal […]

2. Mesozooplankton community structure across the Antarctic Circumpolar Current to the north of South Georgia: Southern Ocean

   During four summer seasons mesozooplankton community composition and structure in relation to water mass distribution were investigated along a 735-km transect running across the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) to the […]

3. Maximum entropy reconstructions of krill distribution and estimates of krill density from acoustic surveys at South Georgia, 1996-2000

   This paper presents Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) reconstructions of krill distribution and estimates of mean krill density within two survey boxes (dimensions 80 km x 100 km) north of South Georgia. […]

5. Modelling diatom responses to climate induced fluctuations in the moisture balance in continental Antarctic lakes

   The water chemistry of lake systems on the edge of the Antarctic continent responds quickly to changes in the moisture balance. This is expressed as increasing salinity and decreasing lake […]

6. Dynamic seasonal cycling of inorganic carbon downstream of South Georgia, Southern Ocean

   The influence of the island mass effect of South Georgia on the seasonal marine carbon cycle was investigated during austral summer (January–February) 2008. South Georgia (54–55°S 36–38°W) lies on the […]

7. Fronts and habitat zones in the Scotia Sea

   The fronts in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) comprise the Southern ACC Front (SACCF), the Polar Front (PF) and Sub-Antarctic Front (SAF), which, together with the Southern Boundary (SB), separate […]

8. DISCOVERY 2010: Spatial and temporal variability in a dynamic polar ecosystem

   The Scotia Sea has been a focus of biological- and physical oceanographic study since the Discovery expeditions in the early 1900s. It is a physically energetic region with some of […]

9. Acoustic impedance and basal shear stress beneath four Antarctic ice streams

   The acoustic impedance of the subglacial material beneath 7.2 km profiles on four ice streams in Antarctica has been measured using a seismic technique. The ice streams span a wide […]

10. Recent rapid regional climate warming on the Antarctic Peninsula

    The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) confirmed that mean global warming was 0.6 +/- 0.2degreesC during the 20th century and cited anthropogenic increases in greenhouse gases as the likely […]

12. Ophiolite obduction pulses as a proxy indicator of superplume events?

    A major new synthesis of ophiolite geochronology and map of global Phanerozoic distribution indicates that previously noted pulses of ophiolite obduction can be linked to superplume-related tectonism. A marked cyclicity […]
