Passive acoustic tracking of blue whales has been proposed as a key component in a strategy to obtain a circumpolar abundance for Antarctic blue whale as proposed in a project of the IWC Southern Ocean Research Partnership.
Livestock was often released onto remote Southern Ocean islands as a food source for shipwreck survivors during the industrial whaling and sealing era. Although animals were put ashore at nearby Isles Kerguelen and Crozet…
The parties to the Montreal Protocol are informed by three panels of experts. One of these is the … Environmental Effects Assessment Panel (EEAP), which deals with two focal issues. The first focus is … the effects of increased UV radiation on human health, animals, plants, biogeochemistry…
Considerable progress in our understanding of the causes of polar stratospheric ozone loss has been made during the past two decades. However, model calculations are still limited by uncertainties in both chemical and dynamical factors.
The upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) is a highly coupled region of the atmosphere where radiation, dynamics, clouds and chemical processes interact on a wide variety of spatial and temporal scales. We use a suite of instruments at Davis, Antarctica (69S, 78E)…
We use a set of metrics for the polar atmosphere to compare coupled ocean-atmosphere general circulation models (AOGCMs) experiments for the 5th Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) with results from chemistryclimate models (CCMs) of the 2nd Chemistry-Climate Model Validation (CCMVal-2)…
Antarctic krill (hereafter krill) is the key species of the Antarctic marine ecosystem as well as a target of commercial fishery in the Southern Ocean, which compels careful predictions about potential impacts of Ocean Acidification (OA)…
