Objective. This paper deals with an estimation of the climate change at the Antarctic Peninsula region. During last decades, the most significant warming is observed in Polar regions, particularly in the Antarctic Peninsula region, where the Ukrainian ...

Non-native species can have profound implications on the survival of native ones. This is especially true for some invasive crabs, such as the green crab Carcinus maenas, a native species to the Northern Hemisphere that has been introduced into southern ...

Global southern limit of flowering plants and moss peat accumulation [PDF]
The ecosystems of the western Antarctic Peninsula, experiencing amongst the most rapid trends of regional climate warming worldwide, are important “early warning” indicators for responses expected in more complex systems elsewhere.

Atmospheric Patterns over the Antarctic Peninsula
Abstract Using clustering analysis for the sea level pressure field of the ERA-Interim reanalysis between 1979 and 2016, five synoptic pressure patterns have been obtained for the Drake area and Antarctic Peninsula (AP) region (45°–75°S, 20°–120°W), and the resulting daily series has been made available to the scientific community.

Past penguin colony responses to explosive volcanism on the Antarctic Peninsula
Changes in penguin populations on the Antarctic Peninsula in recent decades have been linked to environmental factors such as sea ice. Here, the authors show that penguin colony change on Ardley Island, NW Antarctic Peninsula during the last 8,500 years ...

A high-resolution bedrock map for the Antarctic Peninsula [PDF]
Assessing and projecting the dynamic response of glaciers on the Antarctic Peninsula to changed atmospheric and oceanic forcing requires high-resolution ice thickness data as an essential geometric constraint for ice flow models.

Linking Antarctic krill larval supply and recruitment along the Antarctic Peninsula [PDF]
SynopsisAntarctic krill (Euphausia superba) larval production and overwinter survival drive recruitment variability, which in turn determines abundance trends. The Antarctic Peninsula has been described as a recruitment hot spot and as a potentially important source region for larval and juvenile krill dispersal.

Counting cases, conserving species: addressing highly pathogenic avian influenza in wildlife
ABSTRACT Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has become a critical threat to wildlife, shifting from a seasonal epizootic to a persistent, year‐round panzootic with global consequences. Here, we summarise the origin, evolutionary mechanisms, and expanding host range of the current H5N1 virus (clade 2.3.4.4b) and assess its impact on wildlife. Over
