Climate projections over the Antarctic Peninsula region to the end of the 21st century. Part 1: cold temperature indices

open access: yesУкраїнський антарктичний журнал, 2019
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 ...

Short-Term and Long-Term Predictions: Is the Green Crab Carcinus maenas a Threat to Antarctica and Southern South America under a Climate-Change Scenario?

open access: yesDiversity, 2023
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]

open access: yesPolar Research, 2011
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

open access: yesJournal of Climate, 2018
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

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
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 ...

Floristic Similarities between the Lichen Flora of Both Sides of the Drake Passage: A Biogeographical Approach

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
This paper analyses the lichen flora of Navarino Island (Tierra del Fuego, Cape Horn Region, Chile), identifying species shared with the South Shetland Islands (Antarctic Peninsula). In this common flora, species are grouped by their biogeographic origin

Climate projections over the Antarctic Peninsula region to the end of the 21st century. Part II: wet/dry indices

open access: yesУкраїнський антарктичний журнал, 2020
Objective of the study is an assessment of possible climate change in the region of the Antarctic Peninsula from 1986 until the end of the 21st century projected by the RCMs’ ensemble.

A high-resolution bedrock map for the Antarctic Peninsula [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2014
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]

open access: yesIntegrative and Comparative Biology, 2020
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

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
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
