Modelling growth of Antarctic krill. I. Growth trends with sex, length, season, and region. Marine Ecology Grogress Series, 2006 (Ref: 12274)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Growth trends of Antarctic krill with sex, length, season, and region as independent variables … were modelled with a linear mixed model (LMM) using … 10 yr of accumulated instantaneous growth rate (IGR) measurements. A model of inter-moult period (IMP) as … a function of temperature…

Modelling growth of Antarctic krill. II. Novel approach to describing the growth trajectory. Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2006 (Ref: 12275)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Von Bertalanffy (VB) growth models for … Antarctic krill have been calibrated from populationlevel … data consisting of modal lengths obtained from … a time sequence of length frequency samples. We … developed an alternative approach to predicting the … trajectory of length over time…

Tracking the polar front south of New Zealand using penguin dive data. Deep-Sea Research I, 2006 (Ref: 12334)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Nearly 36,000 vertical temperature profiles collected by 15 king penguins are used to map oceanographic fronts south of … New Zealand. There is good correspondence between Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC)…

Isolation, amplification, and identification of ancient copepod DNA from lake sediments. Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, 2005 (Ref: 12262)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Species identification of copepods in lake sediments is often difficult because their remains lack diagnostic … features. It is therefore not easy to track changes in copepod biodiversity in lakes through time. We report a … method for the isolation, amplification…

Photosynthesis of marine macroalgae in ice-covered and ice-free environments in East Antarctica. European Journal of Phycology, 2006 (Ref: 12332)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic macroalgae survive extended periods of darkness followed by rapid and extreme increases in irradiance when sea-ice … breaks out in summer. Algae from dark, ice-covered locations had low values of saturating irradiance (Ek: 4–19 mmol photons … m2 s1)…

High-resolution ice-core stable-isotopic records from Antarctica: towards interannual climate reconstruction. Annals of Glaciology, 2005 (Ref: 12351)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Ice-core records are a key resource for reconstructing Antarctic climate. However, a … number of physical processes preclude the simple interpretation of ice-core properties such as oxygen … isotopic ratios in terms of climate variables like temperature or sea-level pressure. We show that welldated…

Solar forcing of the polar atmosphere. Annals of Glaciology, 2005 (Ref: 12350)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

ABSTRACT. We present highly resolved, annually dated, calibrated proxies for atmospheric circulation … from several Antarctic ice cores (ITASE (International Trans-Antarctic Scientific Expedition), Siple … Dome, Law Dome)…

Snow chemistry across Antarctica Annals of Glaciology, 2005 (Ref: 12349)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

An updated compilation of published and new data of major-ion (Ca, Cl, K, Mg, Na, NO3, SO4) and methylsulfonate (MS) concentrations in snow from 520 Antarctic sites is provided by the … national ITASE (International Trans-Antarctic Scientific Expedition) programmes of Australia, Brazil, China…
