Unexpected Changes to the Global Methane Budget over the Past 2000 Years. Science, 2005 (Ref: 12160)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We report a 2000-year Antarctic ice-core record of stable carbon isotope measurements in atmospheric methane (ä13CH4). Large ä13CH4 variations indicate that the methane budget varied unexpectedly during the late preindustrial Holocene (circa 0 to 1700 A.D.). During the first thousand years…

Predicting the distribution of crabeater seals Lobodon carcinophaga off east Antarctica during the breeding season. Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2005 (Ref: 12166)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

ABSTRACT: Predictive species–environment models have numerous ecological and management applications, and can provide insight into the functional relationships between a species and its environment.

Mass of weaned elephant seal pups in areas of low and high human presence. Polar Biology, 2001 (Ref: 9617)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

On sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island, we examined pup weaning mass of southern elephant seals in relation to human presence. Pup weaning mass was previously found to be positively associated with 1st-year survivorship. Weaned pups were weighed in a remote area, Middle Beach…
