Geothermal environments in Antarctica
, 2018 Geothermal environments in Antarctica have profound ecological and scientific value. They are single points of heat and moisture in an icy and dry landscape, and provide habitats for diverse living organisms, some of which are found nowhere else on Earth.

Distinct Impacts of the Central and Eastern Atlantic Niño on West Antarctic Sea Ice
npj Climate and Atmospheric ScienceThe sea ice variabilities in West Antarctica, crucial for both local and global climate systems, are profoundly affected by the sea surface temperature anomalies over the tropical Atlantic.

Variations in snow and firn chemistry along US ITASE traverses and the effect of surface glazing [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2013 This study provides a baseline from which changes in the chemistry of the atmosphere over Antarctica can be monitored under expected warming scenarios and continued intensification of industrial activities in the Southern Hemisphere.

Scaling turbulence drives the general circulation
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.The NOAA Gulfstream SP4, which deployed the GPS dropsondes over the NE Pacific Ocean as part of the Winter Storms Project during the January–March periods of 2004, 2005 and 2006. Abstract Statistical multifractal analysis of airborne and dropsonde observations is used to show that persistence of velocity after molecular collisions breaks the continuous

Gravity analyses for the crustal structure and subglacial geology of West Antarctica, particularly beneath Thwaites Glacier [PDF]
, 2008 textThe West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) is mostly grounded in broad, deep basins (down to 2.5 km below sea level) that are stretched between five crustal blocks. The geometry of the bedrock, being mostly below sea level, induces a fundamental instability

Journal of Glaciology, 2018 Ice rheology governs how glaciers flow and respond to environmental change. The rheology of glacier ice evolves in response to a variety of mechanisms, including damage, heating, melting and the development of crystalline fabric.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Autonomous fixed‐wing drones operating beyond visual line of sight of the pilot were used to conduct the first aerial, multi‐species baseline reference survey at the sub‐Antarctic island of South Georgia. Long‐term population monitoring in this remote, challenging environment has historically proved difficult, with terrestrial monitoring generally ...

Inland thinning of the Amundsen Sea sector, West Antarctica [PDF]
, 2002 [1] Together with the Pine Island glacier (PIG), the Thwaites (TG) and Smith (SG) glaciers are the principal drainage systems of the Amundsen Sea (AS) sector of Western Antarctica.
