Recent climate variability of the Antarctic Peninsula - isotopic characteristics and tele-connections of hydrological systems [PDF]
Antarctica is among the regions with highest recent rapid regional warming (RRR) (Cullather et al. 1996, Vaughan et al. 2003, Schneider et al. 2006), most likely due to post-industrial anthropogenic influence.

This paper presents the results of a dual approach for assessing fossil benthic foraminiferal communities using both traditional morphology‐based analyses and sedimentary ancient DNA (sedaDNA) metabarcoding. The main objectives are to test the feasibility of sedaDNA analyses to assess foraminiferal biodiversity in temperate shelf sediments (Le Croisic,

We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...

The Antarctic Region: Geological Evolution and Processes [PDF]
The Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) supports discipline‐ and issue‐based meetings in Antarctic research, and these are forums for announcing developments in Antarctic science. Refereed symposia proceedings normally follow and generate a number of volumes that almost constitute serial publication.

Revealing patterns of endemism in the transatlantic family Chelodesmidae (Polydesmida: Diplopoda)
Abstract With fossil records dating back to the Silurian/Late Ordovician, millipedes stand out as one of the earliest terrestrial animal groups. Their limited vagility and high endemism make them valuable tools for formulating and testing biogeographic hypotheses, including those related to macro‐vicariance events.

The Arctic and Antarctic Sea-Ice Area Index Records versus Measured and Modeled Temperature Data
Here we study the Arctic and Antarctic sea-ice area records provided by the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC). These records reveal an opposite climatic behavior: since 1978 the Arctic sea-ice area index decreased, that is, the region has warmed,

Application of the dendrite analysis in the discussion on the biogeography of the Antarctic [PDF]
Paper received 20 October 1984.The method of construction and division of dendrites proposed by Florek et al. (1951) was used for defining of the Antarctic biojjeographic areas. The affinity matrices of Knox and Lowry (1977) resulting from the analysis

Evaluating the empirical basis for threat attribution in the IUCN Red List
Abstract Understanding the impacts of different threats on species is key to successful conservation interventions and policies. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) assesses threats to species, and the organization's Red List of Threatened Species is a key conservation tool.

Reflections On the Anomalous ANITA Events: The Antarctic Subsurface as a Possible Explanation
The ANITA balloon experiment was designed to detect radio signals initiated by neutrinos and cosmic ray air showers. These signals are typically discriminated by the polarization and phase inversions of the radio signal.
