Previous studies of Antarctic mosses … employing RAPDs have reported extraordinarily … high levels of genetic variation, even within a single … clump of moss. This is unexpected given their … extreme isolation in Antarctica and lack of sexual … reproduction. We offer an alternative explanation:
Decadal variations of the quasi-stationary wave amplitude and zonal structure are analyzed using the TOMS data. Seasonal dependence of total ozone content (TOC) is considered.
Past changes in East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) volume are poorly known and diffi cult to … measure, yet are critical for predicting the response of the ice sheet to modern climate change. In particular, it is important to identify the sources of sea-level rise since the Last Glacial … Maximum (LGM)…
