2. Aspects of Scotia Sea zooplankton

   Information on small scale distributions of three species of Antarctic zooplankton is reviewed. Aggregations of the euphausiid Euphausia superba, the tunicate Salpa thompsoni, and the amphipod Parathemisto gaudichaudii are compared, […]

3. Peat respiration and decomposition in Antarctic terrestrial moss communities

   Oxygen uptake by the peat of two Antarctic bryophyte communities (a moss turf and a moss carpet) is converted to organic matter loss and used to derive the rate of […]

4. Food, feeding ecology and ecological segregation of seabirds at South Georgia

   At the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia 25 of the 29 breeding species are seabirds. Fifteen of these have recently been studied in some detail. By examining the timing of […]

8. Flow lines on Antarctic ice shelves

   Satellite images of Ronne and Filchner ice shelves show a variety of surface features many of which are believed to indicate flow lines in the ice. Sufficient imagery is now […]

9. Lipid content and composition of cultured Penaeus merguiensis fed with animal food

   The lipid content and composition of cultured Penaeus merguiensis were examined by lipid extraction, thin-layer chromatography and capillary gas chromatography. The lipid content, 1.99% fresh weight, was higher than in […]

11. A reappraisal of the concept of metabolic cold adaptation in polar marine invertebrates

    The concept of ‘metabolic cold adaptation’, namely that polar marine ectotherms are adapted in having an elevated basal metabolic rate, has been examined in the light of recent biochemical, physiological […]

12. The biochemical composition of krill, Euphausia superba Dana, from South Georgia

    Krill, Euphausia superba Dana, sampled from waters around South Georgia in 1978 contained 10–11% protein, 2–6% lipid, 0.3–0.6% carbohydrate, 2% chitin, and 3–4% mineral ash (all mean values, % fresh […]
