Population dynamics and spatial structure of the grey rockcod (Lepidonotothen squamifrons) in the vicinity of Heard Island and the McDonald Islands. PLOS ONE, 2024 (Ref: 17148)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The grey rockcod, Lepidonotothen squamifrons is an important prey species for seals, penguins and Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) in the Southern Ocean. Across the Kerguelen Plateau, the species was fished to commercial extinction (ca. 152 000 tonnes between 1971 and 1978)…

Ticks Associated with Macquarie Island Penguins Carry Arboviruses from Four Genera PLoS ONE, 2009 (Ref: 13598)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Macquarie Island, a small subantarctic island, is home to rockhopper, royal and king penguins, which are often infested with the globally distributed seabird tick, Ixodes uriae. A flavivirus, an orbivirus, a phlebovirus, and a nairovirus were isolated from these ticks and partial sequences obtained.

Comparisons of Southern and Northern Polar Mesospheric Clouds based on Lidar observations. Eos Transactions, 2003 (Ref: 11241)
Category 3: Abstract

Since the first lidar observation of polar mesospheric clouds (PMC) in 1989 by a Na lidar at Andoya, extensive PMC observations have been made by lidars in both the northern and southern hemispheres. The lidar observations provide precise information on PMC altitudes, layer structure…

An assessment of particulate organic carbon to thorium-234 ratios in the ocean and their impact on the application of 234Th as a POC flux proxy. Marine Chemistry, 2006 (Ref: 12377)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Thorium-234 is increasingly used as a tracer of ocean particle flux, primarily as a means to estimate particulate organic carbon … export from the surface ocean. This requires determination of both the 234Th activity distribution (in order to calculate 234Th fluxes)…

Arbovirus of Marine Mammals: a New Alphavirus Isolated from the Elephant Seal Louse, Lepidophthirus macrorhini . Journal of Virology, 2001 (Ref: 9615)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A novel alphavirus was isolated from the louse Lepidophthirus macrorhini, collected from southern elephant seals, Mirounga leonina, on Macquarie Island, Australia. The virus displayed classic alphavirus ultrastructure and appeared to be serologically different from known Australasian alphaviruses.
