The summertime plankton community at South Georgia (Southern Ocean): comparing the historical (1926/27) and modern (post 1995) records. [PDF]

, 2008
The earliest comprehensive plankton sampling programme in the Southern Ocean was 32 undertaken during the early part of last century by Discovery Investigations to gain a 33 greater scientific understanding of whale stocks and their summer feeding ...

The importance of Antarctic krill in biogeochemical cycles

Nature Communications, 2019
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are swarming, oceanic crustaceans, up to two inches long, and best known as prey for whales and penguins – but they have another important role.

Enhancing the ecosystem approach for the fishery for Antarctic krill within the complex, variable, and changing ecosystem at South Georgia

ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2021
The objective of the ecosystem approach to fisheries management is to sustain healthy marine ecosystems and the fisheries they support. One of the earliest implementations was in the Southern Ocean, where decision rules and stock reference points were ...

Hemispherical Distribution of Antarctic Krill Indicates High Abundance in Amundsen Sea

Oceans
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are an essential source of food for whale, seal, several fish, squid and seabird species in the Southern Ocean. Krill also play a major role in biogeochemical cycling and are the target of a growing commercial fishery.

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

Detecting Climate Signals in Southern Ocean Krill Growth Habitat

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Climate change is rapidly altering the habitat of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba), a key species of the Southern Ocean food web. Krill are a critical element of Southern Ocean ecosystems as well as biogeochemical cycles, while also supporting an ...

Characterization of Molecular Species and Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Purified Phospholipids from Antarctic Krill Oil

Marine Drugs, 2021
The phospholipids (PLs) from Antarctic krill oil were purified (>97.2%) using adsorption column chromatography. Forty-nine PL molecular species were characterized by ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (

Do small swimmers mix the ocean?

, 2010
In this communication we address some hydrodynamic aspects of recently revisited drift mechanism of biogenic mixing in the ocean (Katija and Dabiri, Nature vol. 460, pp. 624-626, 2009).

Nance‐Horan Syndrome: Further Delineation of the Affected Male and the Female Carrier Phenotypes

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nance‐Horan syndrome (NHS; OMIM 302350) is a rare, X‐linked syndrome characterized by bilateral congenital cataracts leading to profound vision loss, specific dental anomalies including characteristic screwdriver blade‐shaped incisors, facial anomalies, and intellectual disability.
