1. Life of the Bellingshausen plate

   The onset of independent Bellingshausen plate movement in the South Pacific is estimated at just after chron C33o. This event closely follows a change in the offset sense on the […]

2. High-resolution animated tectonic reconstruction of the South Pacific and West Antarctic margin

   An animated reconstruction shows South Pacific plate kinematics between 90 and 45 Ma, using the satellite-derived gravity anomaly field, interpolated isochrons and plate rotation parameters from both published and new […]

3. The large-scale dynamics of the mesosphere-lower thermosphere during the Southern Hemisphere stratospheric warming of 2002

   An unprecedented major stratospheric warming occurred in the Antarctic winter of 2002. We present measurements of winds in the mesosphere-lower thermosphere (MLT) made with MF radars located at Davis (69degreesS, […]

4. Thickness and extent of the subglacial till layer beneath an Antarctic paleo-ice stream

   Fast-flowing ice streams and outlet glaciers currently account for as much as 90% of the discharge from the Antarctic and Greenland Ice Sheets. Although the deformation of subglacial material has […]

5. Continental slope morphology and sedimentary processes at the mouth of an Antarctic palaeo-ice stream

   Continental-slope and shelf-edge morphology off Marguerite Bay, western Antarctic Peninsula, is investigated using swath-bathymetric data and parametric sub-bottom profiler records, together with sediment cores. Marguerite Bay has a well-defined cross-shelf […]

6. New data on Martialia hyadesi feeding in the Scotia Sea during winter; with emphasis on seasonal and annual variability

   The diet of the seven star flying squid, Martiala hyadesi, from the South Georgia sector of the Scotia Sea was described front stomach contents collected in winter (June) 2001. Diet […]

7. Quantifying spatial patterns of intertidal biodiversity: is movement important?

   Small-scale patterns of low-, mid- and high-shore intertidal species density, richness and abundance were systematically examined to assess the potential influence of ‘mobility’ on spatial community dynamics and diversity. Mobile […]

8. Macrobenthic migration and its influence on the intertidal diversity dynamics of a meso-tidal system

   The link between movement and migration of organisms to patterns of biodiversity may be an important mechanism of biodiversity maintenance at local scales. but is regularly underestimated in marine studies. […]

9. Molecular evidence links cryptic diversification in polar planktonic protists to Quaternary climate dynamics

   It is unknown how pelagic marine protists undergo diversification and speciation. Superficially, the open ocean appears homogeneous, with few clear barriers to gene flow, allowing extensive, even global, dispersal. Yet, […]

10. Life cycle strategies of Northern krill (Meganyctiphanes norvegica) for regulating growth, moult, and reproductive activity in various environments: the case of fjordic populations

    Adaptive strategies of two fjord populations of Northern krill (Meganyctiphanes norvegica Sars) were studied and compared with other populations from different climatic and oceanic conditions. The Gullmarsfjord (West Sweden) and […]

11. Structural and geochronological constraints of early Ross orogenic deformation in the Pensacola Mountains, Antarctica

    During end-Neoproterozoic to early Paleozoic time, the southern margin of Gondwana was affected by widespread subduction-related orogenesis. In East Antarctica this event is known as the Ross orogeny, whose manifestation […]

12. Seaflux

    High-resolution surface fluxes over the global ocean are needed to evaluate coupled atmosphere–ocean models and weather forecasting models, provide surface forcing for ocean models, understand the regional and temporal variations […]
