Remotely sensed mesoscale oceanography of the central Eastern Pacific and recruitment variability in Dosidicus gigas
Read more of: Remotely sensed mesoscale oceanography of the central Eastern Pacific and recruitment variability in Dosidicus gigasABSTRACT: The Jumbo flying squid Dosidicus gigas has a short life span and is subject to rapid changes in population size. This species inhabits the Eastern Pacific, one of the […]

Ecological contrasts across an Antarctic land-sea interface
Read more of: Ecological contrasts across an Antarctic land-sea interfaceWe report the composition of terrestrial, intertidal and shallow sublittoral faunal communities at sites around Rothera Research Station, Adelaide Island, Antarctic Peninsula. We examined primary hypotheses that the marine environment […]

New boundary conditions for the West Antarctic ice sheet: subglacial topography beneath Thwaites and Smith glaciers catchments
Read more of: New boundary conditions for the West Antarctic ice sheet: subglacial topography beneath Thwaites and Smith glaciers catchmentsAirborne radar sounding over the Thwaites Glacier (TG) catchment and its surroundings provides the first comprehensive view of subglacial topography in this dynamic part of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet […]

New boundary conditions for the West Antarctic ice sheet: subglacial topography beneath Pine Island Glacier
Read more of: New boundary conditions for the West Antarctic ice sheet: subglacial topography beneath Pine Island GlacierPredictions about future changes in the Amundsen Sea sector of the West Antarctic ice sheet (WAIS) have been hampered by poorly known subglacial topography. Extensive airborne survey has allowed us […]

Recent trends in melting conditions on the Antarctic Peninsula and their implications for ice-sheet mass balance and sea level
Read more of: Recent trends in melting conditions on the Antarctic Peninsula and their implications for ice-sheet mass balance and sea levelLong-term records from meteorological stations on the Antarctic Peninsula show strong rising trends in the annual duration of melting conditions. In each case, the trend is statistically significant and represents […]

Significant warming of the Antarctic winter troposphere
Read more of: Significant warming of the Antarctic winter troposphereWe report an undocumented major warming of the Antarctic winter troposphere that is larger than any previously identified regional tropospheric warming on Earth. This result has come to light through […]

The performance of the Hadley Centre climate model (HADCM3) in high southern latitudes
Read more of: The performance of the Hadley Centre climate model (HADCM3) in high southern latitudesAn assessment of mean atmospheric and oceanic data from a 100-year segment of a pre-industrial control run of version 3 of the Hadley Centre climate model is presented. The model […]

Late Miocene paleoenvironment of the Lambert Glacier embayment, East Antarctica, evident from: mollusc paleontology, sedimentology and geochemistry
Read more of: Late Miocene paleoenvironment of the Lambert Glacier embayment, East Antarctica, evident from: mollusc paleontology, sedimentology and geochemistryThe Upper Miocene (10.7–9.0 Ma) Battye Glacier Formation was deposited 250 km inland from the modern Amery Ice Shelf edge in Prydz Bay, East Antarctica. The composition of clay minerals […]

Precipitation trapped in datable rock-forming minerals: estimating Antarctic palaeoelevations – a discussion
Read more of: Precipitation trapped in datable rock-forming minerals: estimating Antarctic palaeoelevations – a discussionMeteoric water that interacted with minerals during retrogressive metamorphism and hydrothermalism in the late-stage of mountain building processes contains hydrogen and oxygen isotopes that are potential proxies for palaeoelevation reconstruction […]

DNA barcoding: a molecular tool to identify Antarctic marine larvae
Read more of: DNA barcoding: a molecular tool to identify Antarctic marine larvaeTo begin to understand overall patterns and processes influencing marine populations, communities and ecosystems, it is important to determine the timing, duration, mode and dispersal of larvae. However, few studies […]
