Characterization of Staphylococcus intermedius Group Isolates Associated with Animals from Antarctica and Emended Description of Staphylococcus delphini [PDF]

open access: goldMicroorganisms, 2020
Members of the genus Staphylococcus are widespread in nature and occupy a variety of niches, however, staphylococcal colonization of animals in the Antarctic environment has not been adequately studied.

Satellite altimetry detection of ice-shelf-influenced fast ice [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2021
The outflow of supercooled Ice Shelf Water from the conjoined Ross and McMurdo ice shelf cavity augments fast ice thickness and forms a thick sub-ice platelet layer in McMurdo Sound.

FROM SPACE TO EARTH: PHYSICAL AND BIOLOGICAL IMPACTS OF GLACIER DYNAMICS IN THE MARINE SYSTEM BY MEANS OF REMOTE SENSING AT ALMIRANTAZGO BAY, ANTARCTICA [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020
To determine the biological and physical mechanisms between Lange glacier and its pro-glacier marine system located in Almirantazgo bay, King George Island, Antarctica, specific variables were determined through remote sensing approaches shown in this ...

RECENT DYNAMICAL FEATURES OF TYNDALL AND GREY GLACIERS, FROM SOUTHERN PATAGONIAN ICEFIELD, BY USING SATELLITE REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUES [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020
Most glaciers in Patagonia have been rapidly shrinking during the past decades in response to ongoing global warming. To extend techniques to monitor their dynamics is crucial to understand individual glacier response to climate change and its ...

STEREO-PHOTOGRAMMETRIC MEASUREMENT OF SPATIO-TEMPORAL VELOCITY FIELDS AT LANGE GLACIER, KING GEORGE ISLAND [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020
A network consisting of six cameras was set up on both sides of Lange Glacier on King George Island, Antarctica, for a period of two years to monitor changes in the glacier’s motion behaviour.

ASSESSMENT OF SEA ICE FREEBOARD AND THICKNESS IN MCMURDO SOUND, ANTARCTICA, DERIVED BY GROUND VALIDATED SATELLITE ALTIMETER DATA [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2012
This investigation employs the use of ICESat to derive freeboard measurements in McMurdo Sound in the western Ross Sea, Antarctica, for the time period 2003-2009. Methods closely follow those previously presented in the literature but are complemented by

Differential interferometric synthetic aperture radar for tide modelling in Antarctic ice-shelf grounding zones [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2019
Differential interferometric synthetic aperture radar (DInSAR) is an essential tool for detecting ice-sheet motion near Antarctica's oceanic margin. These space-borne measurements have been used extensively in the past to map the location and retreat of ...

Long-Term Analysis of Sea Ice Drift in the Western Ross Sea, Antarctica, at High and Low Spatial Resolution

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The Ross Sea region, including three main polynya areas in McMurdo Sound, Terra Nova Bay, and in front of the Ross Ice Shelf, has experienced a significant increase in sea ice extent in the first four decades of satellite observations.

Analysis of ice shelf flexure and its InSAR representation in the grounding zone of the southern McMurdo Ice Shelf [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2017
We examine tidal flexure in the grounding zone of the McMurdo Ice Shelf, Antarctica, using a combination of TerraSAR-X repeat-pass radar interferometry, a precise digital elevation model, and GPS ground validation data.
