The production of 'food boluses' by Antarctic krill and implications for organic matter transport Biology Letters, 2025 (Ref: 17405)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are a key species in the marine Antarctic ecosystem. Food boluses, a by-product of feeding where Antarctic krill form a compact food mass within their feeding basket, were formed and rejected under laboratory conditions.

IAPSO Best Practice Research Group: REconciling Cross-platform Observations of Ice-sheLf melt (RECOIL) Zenodo, 2025 (Ref: 17425)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

One of the principal factors influencing mass loss and sea level contribution from … the Antarctic Ice Sheet currently and in future centuries is the melting of ice … shelves by the ocean. These floating extensions of the ice sheet buttress against … ice-sheet movement…

Global Analysis of the Extended Decreases in Cosmic Rays Observed with Worldwide Networks of Neutron Monitors and Muon Detectors: Temporal Variation of the Rigidity Spectrum and Its Implication Astrophysical Journal, 2025 (Ref: 17375)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

This paper presents the global analysis of two extended decreases in the galactic cosmic-ray intensity observed by worldwide networks of ground-based detectors in 2012. This analysis is capable of separately deriving the cosmic-ray density (or omnidirectional intensity) and anisotropy…

Effects of ocean alkalinity enhancement on plankton in the Equatorial Pacific Communications Earth and Environment, 2025 (Ref: 17329)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Ocean alkalinity enhancement is a potential strategy for gigatonne-scale atmospheric carbon dioxide removal. It uses alkaline substances to convert seawater carbon dioxide into (bi)carbonate, enabling uptake of additional carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Demography of an ice-obligate mysticete in a region of rapid environmental change Royal Society Open Science, 2022 (Ref: 16696)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic minke whales (Balaenoptera bonaerensis, AMW) are an abundant, ice-dependent species susceptible to rapid climatic changes occurring in parts of the Antarctic. Here, we used remote biopsy samples and estimates of length derived from unoccupied aircraft system (UAS)…

Analysis of Cosmic Rays' Atmospheric Effects and Their Relationships to Cutoff Rigidity and Zenith Angle Using Global Muon Detector Network Data Journal of Geophysical Research - Space Physics, 2019 (Ref: 16881)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Cosmic rays are charged particles whose flux observed at Earth shows temporal variations related to space weather phenomena and may be an important tool to study them. The cosmic ray intensity recorded with ground-based detectors also shows temporal variations arising from atmospheric variations.

Changes in microbial functional genes as indicators of soil health and their response to fuel contamination in Antarctica Thesis, Bachelor of Science with Honours, University of Tasmania, Tasmania, 2013 (Ref: 15542)
Authors:
Category 3: Thesis, higher degree

Terrestrial fuel spills in Antarctica commonly occur on ice-free land around research stations as the result of human activities. Successful clean-up of spills not only requires appropriate remediation strategies and technologies that are effective in cold climates…

Metal accumulation and toxicity in the Macquarie Island isopod, Exosphaeroma gigas Bachelor of Science (Hons), Deakin University, Australia, 2014 (Ref: 15547)
Authors:
Category 3: Thesis, higher degree

Macquarie Island currently has no specific water quality guidelines to indicate a safe level of contamination on the island. This study investigated the toxic effects and accumulation of Cu and Zn in the subantarctic invertebrate, Exosphaeroma gigas. Further to this…
