Subglacial hydrology as a control on emergence, scale, and spacing of ice streams
Read more of: Subglacial hydrology as a control on emergence, scale, and spacing of ice streamsObservations have long associated ice streams with the presence of meltwater at the bed. More recently, theoretical models have been able to reproduce ice stream behavior as a consequence of […]

Emerging spatial patterns in Antarctic prokaryotes
Read more of: Emerging spatial patterns in Antarctic prokaryotesRecent advances in knowledge of patterns of biogeography in terrestrial eukaryotic organisms have led to a fundamental paradigm shift in understanding of the controls and history of life on land […]

Antarctic sea ice losses drive gains in benthic carbon drawdown
Read more of: Antarctic sea ice losses drive gains in benthic carbon drawdownClimate forcing of sea-ice losses from the Arctic and West Antarctic are blueing the poles. These losses are accelerating, reducing Earth’s albedo and increasing heat absorption [1]. Subarctic forest (area […]

Oxygen isotope mass balance of atmospheric nitrate at Dome C, East Antarctica, during the OPALE campaign
Read more of: Oxygen isotope mass balance of atmospheric nitrate at Dome C, East Antarctica, during the OPALE campaignVariations in the stable oxygen isotope composition of atmospheric nitrate act as novel tools for studying oxidative processes taking place in the troposphere. They provide both qualitative and quantitative constraints […]

Review of Antarctic greenhouses and plant production facilities: A historical account of food plants on the ice
Read more of: Review of Antarctic greenhouses and plant production facilities: A historical account of food plants on the iceAntarctic crews have been transporting plants and their supporting infrastructure to Antarctic field sites since as early as 1902. More than 46 distinct plant production facilities have, at one time […]

Conservation implications of consistent foraging and trophic ecology in a rare petrel species
Read more of: Conservation implications of consistent foraging and trophic ecology in a rare petrel speciesIndividuals within populations can use different resources, leading to ecological segregation and niche variation. This segregation could have direct impacts on the migratory strategy or breeding success, thus affecting the […]

Diving deeper into individual foraging specializations of a large marine predator, the southern sea lion
Read more of: Diving deeper into individual foraging specializations of a large marine predator, the southern sea lionDespite global declines in the abundance of marine predators, knowledge of foraging ecology, necessary to predict the ecological consequences of large changes in marine predator abundance, remains enigmatic for many […]

Contribution of surface roughness to simulations of historical deforestation
Read more of: Contribution of surface roughness to simulations of historical deforestationSurface roughness which partitions surface net radiation into energy fluxes is a key parameter for estimation of biosphere–atmosphere interactions and climate variability. An earth system model of intermediate complexity (EMIC), […]

The use of fishing vessels to provide acoustic data on the distribution and abundance of Antarctic krill and other pelagic species
Read more of: The use of fishing vessels to provide acoustic data on the distribution and abundance of Antarctic krill and other pelagic speciesA fishery for Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) has existed for over 3 decades and the Commission for Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) manages this fishery using precautionary catch […]

A new high-precision and low-power GNSS receiver for long-term installations in remote areas
Read more of: A new high-precision and low-power GNSS receiver for long-term installations in remote areasWe have developed a new high-precision GNSS receiver specifically designed for long-term unattended deployments in remote areas. The receiver reports its status, and can be reprogrammed remotely, through an integrated […]
