This paper describes the diet and foraging behaviour of Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) at Béchervaise Island during 1998-99, a season of low breeding success. Fifty six percent of nests with eggs failed during the three weeks following first hatch. A breeding success of 0.
Noctilucent ("night shining") clouds can be a beautiful, awe-inspiring sight but they are viewed by some scientists as harbingers of mans impact on his environment. We use a rare sighting of a noctilucent cloud at Davis station (68.6S, 78.0E)…
Laboratory ice deformation experiments are described that use an apparatus designed to apply a simple shear stress configuration. Ice samples are deformed by the application of horizontal parallel forces, with no vertical forces imposed…
We combine ERS-1 satellite radar altimeter surface elevations (Fricker and others, this issue) with six different accumulation distributions to compute balance fluxes for the Lambert Glacier-Amery Ice Shelf Drainage system.
The Lambert Glacier–Amery Ice Shelf system is a major component of the East Antarctic ice sheet. This paper presents two Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) that have been generated for the Lambert Glacier - Amery Ice Shelf system from validated ERS-1 satellite radar altimeter waveform data.
