Year-round spatial segregation and fisheries overlap of white-chinned petrels from multiple populations at South Georgia
Read more of: Year-round spatial segregation and fisheries overlap of white-chinned petrels from multiple populations at South GeorgiaBy-catch in fisheries is the leading cause of population decline in pelagic sea-birds. The white-chinned petrel (Procellaria aequinoctialis) is the most by-caught sea-bird species in the Southern Ocean, and many […]

Interpreting the Altimetric Radar Cross Section of Young Sea Ice
Read more of: Interpreting the Altimetric Radar Cross Section of Young Sea IceKu-band radar altimeters such as the one onboard CryoSat-2 measure the return-time of backscattered radar pulses to derive sea ice freeboard and thickness. This method relies on the two-way penetration […]

Study of Drivers of Antarctic Weather Extremes
Read more of: Study of Drivers of Antarctic Weather ExtremesOver Antarctica, short-lived extremes in wind, precipitation, and near-surface temperature influence surface mass balance by affecting snow accumulation, snow redistribution, meltwater production, and ice-shelf stability. This thesis uses a combination […]
