Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Using 25–30 cm Umbra synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery combined with ground validation of our observations, we introduce a method to track the phenology of emperor penguins during the Antarctic winter. We successfully identified events in the breeding cycle, which were previously impossible to observe during the complete darkness of Antarctic ...

Remote Sensing, 2020 The presence of sea ice leads in the sea ice cover represents a key feature in polar regions by controlling the heat exchange between the relatively warm ocean and cold atmosphere due to increased fluxes of turbulent sensible and latent heat.

Field immobilisation of adult Weddell seals using intramuscular butorphanol and midazolam
Veterinary 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 ...

Transposons as Tools for Future Genome Engineering in Yeasts and Filamentous Fungi
Yeast, EarlyView.Applications of transposon‐based tools for genome engineering in fungi include transposon‐mediated mutagenesis and targeted genomic integration. ABSTRACT Transposons are fundamental genetic elements that have profoundly shaped the architecture of eukaryotic genomes.

Extended seasonal prediction of Antarctic sea ice concentration using ANTSIC-UNet [PDF]
The CryosphereAntarctic sea ice has experienced rapid change in recent years, with the total sea ice extent abruptly decreasing after a period of gradual increase from the late 1970s until 2014.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.This study provides the first isotopic analysis of Oligocene mammals from Quebrada Fiera, Mendoza, Argentina, filling a major gap in South American paleontology. It reveals a latitudinal gradient in aridity due to the Andean rain shadow and highlights the role of (semi)permanent water bodies in sustaining diverse herbivore communities. Additionally, it

Geographical Variation in Thermal Adaptation of the Asiatic Toad (Bufo gargarizans)
Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Northern and southern populations of Bufo gargarizans exhibit coordinated divergence in thermal preference, resting metabolic rate, and TRPM4 temperature sensitivity along a climatic gradient. ABSTRACT Thermal adaptation in animals can manifest in multiple dimensions, yet few studies have integrated behavioral, physiological, and molecular perspectives

Boreas, EarlyView.Józefów site is a case study which provides a detailed record of environmental and climate changes and confirms the main traces of the landscape morphogenesis of the Late Pleistocene established in central‐eastern Europe. This study presents a multiproxy reconstruction of palaeoenvironment under variable climatic conditions from the retreat of the ...
