Reproductive success in Antarctic marine invertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Temperature-driven biogeography of the deep-sea family Lithodidae (Crustacea: Decapoda: Anomura) in the Southern Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Species’ distributions are dynamic and are linked to the changing physical environment. Temperature is considered to be a major factor influencing biogeography, especially in ectotherms such as the family Lithodidae.

Nanomaterials' Multigenerational Effects by Single and Joint Exposure in Non‐mammalian Models

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanotoxicology has mainly focused on single‐generation studies, leaving multigenerational toxicity underexplored. Having animal welfare recently gained importance, we aimed to provide the state‐of‐the‐art of knowledge about multigenerational effects in non‐mammalian models in the case of nanomaterials (NM) single and joint exposure to other ...

Field immobilisation of adult Weddell seals using intramuscular butorphanol and midazolam

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background When working with free‐ranging phocid seals, methods of chemical immobilisation require ongoing refinement to reduce complications, particularly apnoea, during research procedures. Methods Adult Weddell seals (n = 20) at Cape Crozier, Antarctica, were chemically immobilised with intramuscular injection of butorphanol and midazolam ...
