1. Evidence that a highly invasive ascidian can survive the thermal conditions of a simulated transit across the sub-Antarctic and polar fronts

   The sub-Antarctic and polar fronts are features of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current that separates the South Atlantic and Southern Ocean. These fronts act as both a physical and physiological barrier […]

2. Abyssal DNA: Eukaryotic Diversity in Atlantic Equatorial Deep-Sea Sediments Assessed Through DNA Metabarcoding

   Background/Objectives: We evaluated eukaryotic diversity in two cores obtained from abyssal sediments collected at depths of 4280 m and 4444 m in the equatorial Atlantic, between the Fernando de Noronha […]

3. Future under sea ice light availability and algal bloom timing from CMIP6 model simulations

   Arctic sea ice is projected to thin and reduce in extent significantly over the next century. Both sea ice and its overlying snow limit the amount of light that reaches […]

4. Distal cryptotephra records in the Falkland Islands refine South American tephrochronology

   Cryptotephra (non-visible volcanic ash) deposits in the Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas) provide a distal record of South American volcanism and ash dispersal into the South Atlantic Ocean. Here, we present […]

5. Characterization of the ionosphere response to the X1.3 solar event occurred on 30 March 2022

   This work aims to characterize the ionospheric disturbances in the South America – Antarctic Peninsula sector due the impact of a X1.3 solar event. This flare occurred on 30 March […]

6. Variability and Trends of the Amundsen Sea Low since the Early Twentieth Century from Seasonal-Station-Based Reconstructions

   The Amundsen Sea is dominated by a quasi-stationary low-pressure region, the Amundsen Sea Low (ASL). ASL variability impacts on regional weather and the basal melting of ice shelves, an important […]

7. Understanding the risk of marine introductions through the biofouling of vessels operating in the remote sub-Antarctic

   Understanding the risk of introduction of marine non-native species requires data on pathways, including the level of biofouling present on vessels, vessel operating profiles and maintenance regimes. This study presents […]

9. Adjusting management of the Antarctic krill fishery to the challenges of the 21st Century

   Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is the central prey species in the Southern Ocean food web, supporting the largest and fastest-growing fishery in the region, managed by the Commission for the […]

10. The abundance, diversity, and assemblage structure of the macrobenthos at the South Georgia shelf methane seeps

    A quarter of all marine methane, a potent greenhouse gas, is estimated to be hosted in Southern Ocean sediments. Climate change-induced ocean warming and ice shelf melting risk the stability […]

11. Stable isotopes constrain the genesis of Thar Desert gypsum playas and reveal Holocene paleoenvironmental variability in Northwest India

    Numerous evaporative saline playa lakes exist within the Thar Desert in Northwest India. Some are active seasonally, whereas others are dry and preserve up to several meters of sedimentary deposits. […]

12. Century-scale effect of climate change on meteorite falls

    Climate change is inducing a global atmospheric contraction above the tropopause (~10 km), leading to systematic decrease in neutral air density. The impact of climate change on small meteoroids has […]
