Species Diversity and Community Structure of Macrobenthos in the Cosmonaut Sea, East Antarctica

Diversity, 2023
The Cosmonaut Sea is an under-studied area and a “white spot” for macrobenthos research. Here, we report on the species diversity and community structure of macrobenthos collected using tringle trawls on the 38th Chinese National Antarctic Research ...

Predicted changes in the distribution of Antarctic krill in the Cosmonaut Sea under future climate change scenarios

Ecological Indicators, 2022
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are the key species of the ecological system in the Cosmonaut Sea. Long-term habitat alterations in krill due to climate change have been considered in recent decades. However, there is still a lack understanding about

Paleoproductivity and deep-sea oxygenation in Cosmonaut Sea since the last glacial maximum: impact on atmospheric CO2

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The paleoproductivity in the Southern Ocean plays a crucial role in controlling the atmospheric CO2 concentration. Here, we present the sediment record of gravity core ANT37-C5/6-07, which was retrieved from the Cosmonaut Sea (CS), Indian Ocean sector of

Demersal Fish Community in the Near-Shelf Zone of the Cosmonaut Sea, Southern Ocean

Diversity
Studies on the demersal fish composition of the East Antarctic nearshore region are very scarce due to the harsh physical geography of the East Antarctic region, which is covered in ice and snow year round, leading to a scarcity of scientific surveys ...

Summertime tintinnids in surface water of the Weddell and Cosmonaut seas: community structure and relationships with different water masses

Polar Research, 2023
Tintinnids (Ciliophora) are important microzooplankton grazers. In the Southern Ocean, they are found in the Antarctic Zone, Polar Front and Subantarctic Zone.
