Late Pleistocene and Holocene glacial history of James Ross Island, Antarctic Peninsula
Read more of: Late Pleistocene and Holocene glacial history of James Ross Island, Antarctic PeninsulaStudies of Quaternary glacial stratigraphy and morphology around the Antarctic Peninsula have shown that James Ross Island in the western Weddell Sea probably has the best occurrences of stratigraphic sections […]

Distributions and predator-prey interactions of macaroni penguins, Antarctic fur seals, and Antarctic krill near Bird Island, South Georgia
Read more of: Distributions and predator-prey interactions of macaroni penguins, Antarctic fur seals, and Antarctic krill near Bird Island, South GeorgiaWe studied the distributions, abundances and interactions of macaroni penguins Eudyptes chrysolophus, Antarchc fur seals Arctocephalus gazella, and their zooplankton prey, m particular Antarctic krill Euphausia superba, near Bird Island, […]

Changes in seabird species abundance near South Georgia during a period of rapid change in sea surface temperature
Read more of: Changes in seabird species abundance near South Georgia during a period of rapid change in sea surface temperatureDuring a three month research cruise near the island of South Georgia, sea surface temperature (SST) increased from c. 2°C to over 4°C. Satellite derived SST show that this corresponded […]

An additional record of a placental mammal (Order Astrapotheria) from the Eocene of West Antarctica
Read more of: An additional record of a placental mammal (Order Astrapotheria) from the Eocene of West AntarcticaRecently, fossil land mammals have been recorded in the James Ross Island area, east of the Antarctic Peninsula, from the marine middle-late Eocene strata of Seymour Island. These include two […]

Specification of the near-Earth space environment with SHIELDS
Read more of: Specification of the near-Earth space environment with SHIELDSPredicting variations in the near-Earth space environment that can lead to spacecraft damage and failure is one example of “space weather” and a big space physics challenge. A project recently […]

Regional climate of the Larsen B embayment 1980–2014
Read more of: Regional climate of the Larsen B embayment 1980–2014Understanding the climate response of the Antarctic Peninsula ice sheet is vital for accurate predictions of sea-level rise. However, since climate models are typically too coarse to capture spatial variability […]

Antarctic climate variability on regional and continental scales over the last 2000 years
Read more of: Antarctic climate variability on regional and continental scales over the last 2000 yearsClimate trends in the Antarctic region remain poorly characterized, owing to the brevity and scarcity of direct climate observations and the large magnitude of interannual to decadal-scale climate variability. Here, […]

The contribution of compressional magnetic pumping to the energization of the Earth’s outer electron radiation belt during high-speed-stream-driven storms
Read more of: The contribution of compressional magnetic pumping to the energization of the Earth’s outer electron radiation belt during high-speed-stream-driven stormsCompressional magnetic pumping is an interaction between cyclic magnetic compressions and pitch-angle scattering with the scattering acting as a catalyst to allow the cyclic compressions to energize particles. Compressional magnetic […]
