A new volcanic province: an inventory of subglacial volcanoes in West Antarctica

open access: yesSpecial Publications, 2017
The West Antarctic Ice Sheet overlies the West Antarctic Rift System about which, due to the comprehensive ice cover, we have only limited and sporadic knowledge of volcanic activity and its extent.

Lead isotope evidence for Antarctic Ice Sheet changes in the Weddell Sea sector since the Last Glacial Maximum

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The Weddell Sea influences global ocean circulation and sea level through modulating Antarctic Bottom Water formation and Antarctic Ice Sheet discharges, but the history of ice‐sheet dynamics in this region remains poorly constrained due to limited well‐dated geological records.

Islands of Ice: Influence of Free-Drifting Antarctic Icebergs on Pelagic Marine Ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yesOceanography, 2012
Regional warming around West Antarctica, including the Antarctic Peninsula, is related to the retreat of glaciers that has resulted in significant ice mass loss in recent decades (De Angelis and Skvarca, 2003). Large icebergs (> 18.5 km long) originating

A 2700-year annual timescale and accumulation history for an ice core from Roosevelt Island, West Antarctica

open access: yesClimate of the Past, 2017
. We present a 2700-year annually resolved chronology and snow accumulation history for the Roosevelt Island Climate Evolution (RICE) ice core, Ross Ice Shelf, West Antarctica. The core adds information on past accumulation changes in an otherwise poorly

A revised classification system of the marronoid clade of spiders (Araneae), based on dense sampling phylogenomics and comparative morphology

open access: yesCladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract The marronoid clade is a globally distributed, ecologically diverse group of spiders. It is an important faunal component in both natural and synanthropic environments, and even found in aquatic and extreme habitats such as desert salt flats. The systematics of the marronoid clade has been notoriously unstable due to the widespread character ...

Accelerated Sea-Level Rise from West Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2004
Recent aircraft and satellite laser altimeter surveys of the Amundsen Sea sector of West Antarctica show that local glaciers are discharging about 250 cubic kilometers of ice per year to the ocean, almost 60% more than is accumulated within their catchment basins.

A rapid shift in migration schedule of an Austral shorebird is linked to a changing southern climate oscillation

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
Global climate change is reshaping the schedules and routes of migratory birds, which can disrupt annual cycles, ecological interactions and the fitness trade‐offs of migrating or staying resident. In particular, climate change has led to advances in arrival at the breeding grounds and to shifts in the timing of post‐breeding migration, whereby both ...

Gravity studies over West Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
textThis thesis describes the results of new analysis of gravity studies over West Antarctica. Set on the Siple Coast, an airborne geophysical survey was flown between 1994 and 1997 that covered the trunk of Bindschadler Ice Stream and the up-stream ...

Tides and the flow of Rutford Ice Stream, West Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
[1] Surface speeds of Rutford Ice Stream, West Antarctica, are known to vary by around 10–20% (depending on location) with a fortnightly periodicity corresponding to a springneap tidal cycle. The reasons for these periodic variations in flow are unclear.
