Around 176500 whales were killed in the sub-Antarctic waters off South Georgia (South Atlantic) between 1904 and 1965. In recent decades, whales have once again become summer visitors, with the southern right whale (SRW) the most commonly reported species until 2011. Here…
The Southern Ocean Research Partnership (IWC-SORP) is a multi-lateral, non-lethal scientific research programme established in 2009 to improve the coordinated and cooperative delivery of science to the IWC. There are 13 Partners: Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Chile, France, Germany, Italy…
This paper presents the results of a review of progress in the implementation of the recommendations identified in the Report of the Joint CEP/SC-CAMLR Workshop on Climate Change and Monitoring (2016). This review was undertaken during the 2021-22 intersessional period by Argentina, Australia…
Collaborative research has shown that diesel fuels used at Australian and Argentine Antarctic stations are chemically distinct. Such findings can assist with understanding the relative risks associated with fuel spills, the identification of specific compounds for monitoring…
The ozone loss simulated with climate models is based on laboratory kinetic data. These laboratory data are difficult to conduct at stratospheric pressures and temperatures and there is substantial uncertainty surrounding these parameters.
Effects of ocean acidification in conjunction with temperature change warrants investigation as little is known about potential interactive effects of these parameters on Antarctic benthic species.
obtained from Davis station in Antarctica (69S, 78E) provide an opportunity to study … interhemispheric coupling. Observations and modelling described by Becker and Fritts (Ann. Geophys, 24, 1175-1188, 2006) suggests that wintertime planetary wave activity…
We applied a multivariate statistical modelling technique called boosted regression trees to derive relationships between environmental conditions and the distribution of the adult stage of the cyclopoid copepod Oithona similis in the Southern Ocean.
Satellite remote sensing observations of three break-up events in 2008 for the Wilkins Ice Shelf (28 February … to 6 March, 27 May to 31 May, and 28 June to mid-July) provide unprecedented detail of ice shelf calving … during rapid break-up.
We compiled and reviewed 248 cases of reported vessel collisions with small cetaceans worldwide and with large … cetaceans in the Southern Hemisphere. Difficulties were encountered with the comparison of highly variable data in … terms of quality (evidence), sources…
