Diving behaviour of lactating Antarctic fur seals
The diving behaviour of 11 lactating female Antarctic fur seals (Arctocephalus gazella) was recorded for a total of 254 animal-days at sea. Median and maximum dive depths for individuals varied […]

The sedimentary record of Antarctic climate change
Read more of: The sedimentary record of Antarctic climate changeCircum-Antarctic marine sediments contain a record of past climate and Southern Ocean circulation that both complements and considerably extends the record in the continental ice. Variations in primary biological production, […]

The effect of sample emission on measurements of spectral parameters using a fourier transform absorption spectrometer
Read more of: The effect of sample emission on measurements of spectral parameters using a fourier transform absorption spectrometerRadiative transfer within an interferometric spectrometer is discussed in relation to measurements of infrared transmittance spectra of gases. It is shown that for certain types of interferometric spectrometers, radiation from […]

Feeding rates and diel vertical migration of copepods near South Georgia: a comparison of shelf and oceanic sites
Read more of: Feeding rates and diel vertical migration of copepods near South Georgia: a comparison of shelf and oceanic sitesSeventeen Longhurst Hardy Plankton Recorder profiles were taken over a diel cycle in January 1990 to study the feeding of four major copepods over the South Georgia shelf. Ontogenetic changes […]
