Reproductive success in Antarctic marine invertebrates [PDF]
, 2005 The nearshore Antarctic marine environment is unique, characterised by low but constant temperatures that contrast with an intense peak in productivity. As a result of this stenothermal environment, energy input has a profound ecological effect.

Antarctic reptant decapods: more than a myth? [PDF]
, 2004 The impoverished Antarctic decapod fauna is one of the most conspicuous biodiversity phenomena in polar science. Although physiological and ecological approaches have tried to explain the reason for the low decapod biodiversity pattern in the Southern ...

Structure and Propagation of Mesoscale Cyclonic Eddies in the Brazil–Malvinas Confluence
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Between 1993 and 2022, 1386 cyclonic eddies were identified in the Brazil–Malvinas Confluence, one of the most energetic regions of the South Atlantic. While most eddies dissipated locally, a smaller number of individuals, more energetic, and longer lived propagated predominantly south‐westward and north‐eastward, driven by topographic constraints and ...

THE METEOROLOGY OF THE ANTARCTIC
Monthly Weather Review, 1921 IN the preface to my book on Antarctic meteorology I wrote, “I was recalled to my work in India when the Terra Nova returned to the Antarctic in January, 1912,” and the reviewer in NATURE of December 23 (p. 528) has very naturally concluded that this meant that I was recalled officially by the Government of India.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Marine isotope substage 11c (~426–366 ka) is widely regarded as the most recent Pleistocene interglacial that is broadly analogous to the Holocene. The timing and magnitude of sea‐level changes during MIS 11 have been much debated, particularly concerning whether sea levels were significantly higher than during the Holocene. Empirical evidence

The Monterey Event and the Paleocene‐Eocene Thermal Maximum
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 401-416., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While the Antarctic region has experienced significant climatic changes over the Holocene, few high‐resolution records have examined their effects on the local biota. In order to understand past ecological shifts and forecast future changes, it is important to obtain high‐resolution palaeoecological records from this region.

Mesozooplankton assemblages in two bays in the Beagle Channel (Argentina) during January, 2001
Scientia Marina, 2005 This paper describes the composition and abundance of mesozooplankton of Bahía Ushuaia and Bahía Golondrina. These small bays are located in the northern Beagle Channel. Sampling was carried out from January 20 to 23, 2001 and samples were collected from

The Antarctic Anticyclone [PDF]
Nature, 1920 IN NATURE for August 5 Mr. R. F. T. Granger remarks: “The same conditions, i.e. the surface outflow and the central descent of air, exist in Prof. Hobbs's polar ice-cap anticyclone; the only difference the physical origin.”
