2. Bacteria in the lakes of the Tibetan Plateau and polar regions

   The Tibetan Plateau, also termed ‘the Third Pole’ harbors the largest number of high-altitude lakes in the world. Due to the presence of extreme conditions such as low temperature and […]

3. Optimization of phenol degradation by Antarctic bacterium Rhodococcus sp.

   This study focused on the ability of the Antarctic bacterium Rhodococcus sp. strain AQ5-14 to survive exposure to and to degrade high concentrations of phenol at 0.5 g l-1. After […]

4. Bipolar volcanic synchronization of abrupt climate change in Greenland and Antarctic ice cores during the last glacial period

   The last glacial period is characterized by a number of millennial climate events that have been identified in both Greenland and Antarctic ice cores and that are abrupt in Greenland […]

5. Microalgae as potential anti-inflammatory natural products against human inflammatory skin diseases

   The skin is the first line of defense against pathogen and other environmental pollutant. The body is constantly exposed to reactive oxygen species (ROS) that stimulates inflammatory process in the […]

6. Revealing the former bed of Thwaites Glacier using sea-floor bathymetry: implications for warm-water routing and bed controls on ice flow and buttressing

   The geometry of the sea floor immediately beyond Antarctica’s marine-terminating glaciers is a fundamental control on warm-water routing, but it also describes former topographic pinning points that have been important […]

7. Optimisation of biodegradation conditions for waste canola oil by cold-adapted Rhodococcus sp. AQ5-07 from Antarctica

   Background: The potential waste canola oil-degrading ability of the cold-adapted Antarctic bacterial strain Rhodococcus sp. AQ5-07 was evaluated. Globally, increasing waste from food industries generates serious anthropogenic environmental risks that […]

9. Modeling the impact of ocean circulation on chlorophyll blooms around South Georgia, Southern Ocean.

   The northeast periphery of the Scotia Sea hosts one of the largest chlorophyll‐a blooms of the Southern Ocean. This bloom peaks to the northwest of the island of South Georgia, […]

10. DNA metabarcoding to assess the diversity of airborne fungi present over Keller Peninsula, King George Island, Antarctica

    We assessed fungal diversity present in air samples obtained from King George Island, Antarctica, using DNA metabarcoding through high-throughput sequencing. We detected 186 fungal amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) dominated by […]

11. Modeling of the Influence of Sea Ice Cycle and Langmuir Circulation on the Upper Ocean Mixed Layer Depth and Freshwater Distribution at the West Antarctic Peninsula

    The Southern Ocean is chronically undersampled due to its remoteness, harsh environment, and sea ice cover. Ocean circulation models yield significant insight into key processes and to some extent obviate […]

12. Variation in zoobenthic blue carbon in the Arctic’s Barents Sea Shelf Sediments

    The flow of carbon from atmosphere to sediment fauna and sediments reduces atmospheric CO2, which in turn reduces warming. Here, during the Changing Arctic Ocean Seafloor programme, we use comparable […]
