Marine diffusive boundary layers at high latitudes. Limnology and Oceanography, 2004 (Ref: 12031)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The thickness of marine diffusive boundary layers (DBLs) can be calculated from the friction velocity and the water … density (a function of temperature and salinity). However, DBL thickness scales differently with temperature, depending … on whether free-stream or friction velocity is used.

Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The aim of this project was to determine both … the diurnal changes in photosynthetic activity of Antarctic … sea ice algae and also the protective mechanisms … they use to mitigate the effects of in situ UV radiation.

Spatial utilisation of fast-ice by Weddell seals Leptonychotes weddelli during winter. Ecography, 2005 (Ref: 12024)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

This study describes the distribution of Weddell seals Leptonychotes weddelli in winter(May-September 1999) at the Vestfold Hills, in Prydz Bay, East Antarctica. Specifically, we describe the spatial extent of haul-out sites in shore - fast sea-ice, commonly referred to as fast-ice.
