Observations of birds on King George Island
Polar Geography, 1979Abstract Observations in 1973–75 made it possible to provide more precise information on the species composition of bird fauna on the Fildes Peninsula of King George Island and to supplement findings on various aspects of bird life. In addition to description of the species composition of birds nesting on the peninsula and of temporary visitors, the ...

Radon flux at King George Island, Antarctic Peninsula
Journal of Environmental Radioactivity, 2002Fluxes of 222Rn from the ice-free terrain to the atmosphere were measured directly, for the first time, at the Brazilian Antarctic Station Ferraz during the summer field campaign of 1998/99. Average value for the flux was 7.7 +/- 4.8 x 10(-2) atoms cm(-2) s(-1) and it ranged between 0.21 x 10(-2) atoms cm(-2) s(-1) and 28 x l0(-2) atoms cm(-2) s(-1 ...

Cryogenic landforms on King George Island, South Shetland Islands
Polar Geography and Geology, 1985Abstract The South Shetland Islands lie within the oceanic geocryological zone of the Antarctic. King George Island, one of the largest islands of the archipelago, presents a variety of landforms of cryogenic‐denudational, nival, solifluction and cryostructural types.

The Southern Elephant seal of King George Island
Polar Geography, 1979Abstract The results of field‐station observations conducted during the wintering period December 1973 to January 1975 on King George (Waterloo) Island are described. The paper gives data on the numbers of the southern elephant seal, its distribution along the coast of Fildes Peninsula by seasons of the year, the age‐sex distribution of molting sites ...

Antarctic Science, 2020
In the krill-based ecosystem of the Antarctic, fluctuations in the distribution and abundance of Euphausia superba may have strong impacts on predator populations; thus, it is crucial to observe the feeding ecology of Antarctic predators, especially in ...

Determination of Glacier Velocities on King George Island (Antarctica) by DInSAR
2006 IEEE International Symposium on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2006The Antarctic Peninsula is a region highly sensitive to climate change. For ice dynamic modelling and climatic impact studies several parameters have to be known. Radar interferometry is a feasible method in such remote areas to derive velocity fields.
