1. Invasions by marine life on plastic debris

   Colonization by alien species poses one of the greatest threats to global biodiversity1. Here I investigate the colonization by marine organisms of drift debris deposited on the shores of 30 […]

2. Hermit crabs, humans and crowded house markets

   There is a complex and dynamic interrelationhip between hermit crabs, humans and the coastal environment. Hermit crab homes (shells) are often hard to come by, but humans are helping out […]

3. Clade perseverance from mesozoic to present: a multidisciplinary approach to interpretation of pattern and process

   Two clades of marine bryozoans, cyclostomes and cheilostomes, exemplify the benefits of applying a multidisciplinary approach to the interpretation of long-term evolutionary patterns. The cyclostome bryozoans were dominant in the […]

4. Seasonal and interannual variation in foraging range and habitat of macaroni penguins Eudyptes chrysolophus at South Georgia

   In marine ecosystems, characterisation of the foraging areas and habitats of predators is a key factor in interpreting their ecological role, We studied the foraging areas of the macaroni penguin […]

5. Provisioning behaviour of macaroni penguins Eudyptes chrysolophus

   Understanding how parental expenditure reflects food availability and influences reproductive output is a key part of studies of breeding performance. Provisioning behaviour is an important aspect of parental expenditure. We […]

6. Data report: Composite depths and spliced sections for Leg 178 Sites 1095 and 1096, Antarctic Peninsula continental rise

   During Leg 178, multiple advanced piston corer holes were drilled at our sites (1095, 1096, 1098, and 1099). Cores from the holes were correlated on board to produce composite depths […]

7. Antarctic glacial history and sea-level change

   The Pacific margin of the Antarctic Peninsula was drilled during Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 178 to understand the past 10 m.y. of its glacial history and to test a […]

8. Length-at-age in juvenile Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides)

   We used the otoliths from a sample of Dissostichus eleginoides pre-recruits, whose length density was distinctly polymodal, to see whether ages estimated by reading otoliths were congruent with the length […]

10. Variation in plasma leptin levels in response to fasting in Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella)

    Plasma leptin levels were determined in 8 lactating female and 20 pup Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus ga:ella) during fasting periods of normal duration. Plasma leptin levels ranged from 1.35-3.19 ng.ml(-1) […]

11. Influence of magnetospheric processes on winter HF radar spectra characteristics

    This study investigates further the relationship between regions of the magnetosphere and the characteristics of HF radar Doppler spectra recorded in the ionospheric projection of those regions. It builds on […]

12. Modelling multivariate determinants of growth in Antarctic bryozoans

    Bryozoans seem fairly typical amongst Antarctic benthos, in both timing and magnitude of growth. Growth varies interspecifically from nearly comparable to much slower than warm water equivalent species. Factors including […]
