With the development of next generation aircraft designs capable of ultralong-range flight and … extended flight endurance…
A study of the variation in snow cover and depth over the Antarctic sea ice zone was … performed using AMSR-E/Aqua snow depth and sea ice temperature products of … approximate 5-day intervals from June 2002 through December 2005. Time series statistic … analyses of mean and maximum snow depth…
A diverse fouling community discovered encrusting a barge intended for deployment at subantarctic … Macquarie Island is described and its role as a transport vector for non-indigenous marine organisms is … discussed.
The introduction of invasive species may be the most profound modern threat to biological … communities in high-latitude regions. In the Southern Ocean…
As part of a general survey of the biodiversity and inherent ecophysiology of bacteria associated with coastal Antarctic sea-ice diatom assemblages, eight strains were identified by 16S rRNA sequence analysis as belonging to the genus Colwellia. The isolates were non-pigmented…
A group of sea-ice-derived psychrophilic bacterial strains possessing the unusual ability to synthesize the polyunsaturated fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (20:5w3) and arachidonic acid (20:4w6) belong to the Family Flavobacteriaceae (Flexibacter–Bacteroides–Flavobacterium phylum)…
