1. Rafting by five phyla on man-made flotsam in the Southern Ocean

   In just 4 decades, marine litter has become abundant in northern oceans and seas and is increasing on even remote Southern Ocean island shores. The Southern Ocean was thought to […]

2. Zoobenthic biodiversity, biomass and abundance at Adelaide Island, Antarctica

   The waters surrounding Antarctica are amongst the most isolated large areas of continental shelf, cut off for about 15 to 30 million yr by both deep water and the oceanographic […]

3. Local, regional and global patterns of resource use in ecology: hermit crabs and gastropod shells as an example

   To see the ‘big pictures’, it seems increasingly clear that experimental design, data collection and analyses of ecological investigation need to be at multiple scales. This causes problems with data […]

4. Population dynamics and biogeochemical significance of Limacina helicina antarctica in the Scotia Sea (Southern Ocean)

   Limacina helicina antarctica is a common part of the Southern Ocean zooplankton community but little is known about its life cycle. Here we determine the population structure and standing stock […]

5. Wax ester composition influences the diapause patterns in the copepod Calanoides acutus

   Many calanoid copepods inhabiting high latitude environments overwinter at depth in the water column in a state of diapause and the large wax ester reserves that they contain are central […]

6. Mesozooplankton community structure and variability in the Scotia Sea: A seasonal comparison

   Mesozooplankton distribution and community structure was investigated during 3 cruises to the Scotia Sea in austral spring, summer and autumn. Three mesh sizes of Bongo nets were used during each […]

8. Ecology of subtropical hermit crabs in SW Madagascar: short-range migrations

   Many mobile animals migrate because of the different benefits provided by different localities in time and space. For hermit crabs, such benefits include resource (shell, water, food) acquisition and gamete […]

9. Competition asymmetry with taxon divergence

   Most organisms experience competition for resources, probably most of the time. As the structure and requirements of closely related species are generally liable to be more similar than in distantly […]

10. International Photolysis Frequency Measurement and Model Intercomparison (IPMMI): spectral actinic solar flux measurements and modeling

    [1] The International Photolysis Frequency Measurement and Model Intercomparison (IPMMI) took place in Boulder, Colorado, from 15 to 19 June 1998, aiming to investigate the level of accuracy of photolysis […]

11. High-energy phosphate metabolism during exercise and recovery in temperate and Antarctic scallops – an in vivo 31P-NMR study

    In vivo P-31-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used to measure the levels of ATP, phospho-L-arginine (PLA), and inorganic phosphate in the adductor muscle of the Antarctic scallop Adamussium colbecki […]

12. In situ investigation of burst swimming and muscle performance in the deep-sea fish Antimora rostrata (Gunther, 1878)

    The few existing measurements of deep-sea fish physiology consistently indicate reduced basal metabolism and metabolic power. A possible explanation for this is the reduction in selective pressure for burst activity […]
