2. The importance of Antarctic krill in biogeochemical cycles

   Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are swarming, oceanic crustaceans, up to two inches long, and best known as prey for whales and penguins – but they have another important role. With […]

3. Spatial and temporal variations in basal melting at Nivlisen ice shelf, East Antarctica, derived from phase-sensitive radars

   Thinning rates of ice shelves vary widely around Antarctica, and basal melting is a major component of ice shelf mass loss. In this study, we present records of basal melting […]

4. Using remote sensing to detect whale strandings in remote areas: the case of sei whales mass mortality in Chilean Patagonia

   We test the ability of Very High Resolution satellite (VHR) imagery to detect stranded whales using both manual and automated methods. We use the 2015 mass mortality event in the […]

5. Particle‐in‐cell experiments examine electron diffusion by whistler‐mode waves: 1. Benchmarking with a cold plasma

   Using a particle‐in‐cell code, we study the diffusive response of electrons due to wave‐particle interactions with whistler‐mode waves. The relatively simple configuration of field‐aligned waves in a cold plasma is […]

6. Very low latitude whistler‐mode signals: Observations at three widely spaced latitudes

   VLF radio signals with travel times ~100 ms were observed continuously for up to ~11 hours at night on Rarotonga (Cook Islands, ~21°S) at 21.4 kHz from US Navy transmitter […]

7. Variability of quasilinear diffusion coefficients for plasmaspheric hiss

   In the Outer Radiation Belt, the acceleration and loss of high‐energy electrons is largely controlled by wave‐particle interactions. Quasilinear diffusion coefficients are an efficient way to capture the small‐scale physics […]

8. Seasonal variations in the total lipid content of Chorismus antarcticus (Pfeffer) (Crustacea: Decapoda) at South Georgia

   The Antarctic benthic prawn Chorismus antarcticus (Pfeffer) was sampled regularly for a year and its total lipid content measured. Immature and transitional prawns had very variable lipid contents but similar […]

9. Lipid class and fatty acid composition of Chorismus antarcticus (Pfeffer) (Crustacea: Decapoda) at South Georgia

   The major lipids of the Antarctic benthic hippolytid prawn Chorismus antarcticus (Pfeffer) were phospholipid and triacylglycerol. There were small amounts of free sterol and alkyldiacylglycerol and traces of free fatty […]

10. Contamination of Peregrine falcons (Falco peregrinus) with fulmar stomach oil

    Since 1971, four peregrine falcons, Falco peregrinus, coated with an oil‐like contamination, have been received for analysis at Monks Wood Experimental Station. All were from north or west Scotland. The […]

12. The I.B.P. Bipolar Botanical Project

    A summary is given of comparative work carried out within the I.B.P. Tundra Biome at an Arctic station (Greenland) and a sub-Antarctic station (South Georgia). The investigations covered many aspects […]
