Multi-model estimate of Antarctic ice-shelf basal mass budget and ocean drivers The Cryosphere, 2025 (Ref: 17479)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Societal adaptation to rising sea levels requires robust projections of the Antarctic Ice Sheet's retreat, particularly due to ocean-driven basal melting of its fringing ice shelves.

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…

Antarctic Krill Lipid and Fatty acid Content Variability is Associated to Satellite Derived Chlorophyll a and Sea Surface Temperatures Scientific Reports, 2020 (Ref: 17178)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are a key component of the Antarctic food web with considerable lipid reserves that are vital for their health and higher predator survival. Krill lipids are primarily derived from their diet of plankton, in particular diatoms and flagellates.

Seasonal and interannual variation in the lipid content and composition of Euphausia superba Dana, 1850 (Euphausiacea) samples derived from the Scotia Sea fishery Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2018 (Ref: 17170)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The Antarctic krill (Euphausia superbaDana, 1850) is an important trophic link between phytoplankton and higher trophic levels. Knowledge of the lipid biochemistry of krill assists in understanding their seasonal biology and predicting their responses to ecological changes.

Deriving melt rates at a complex ice shelf base using in situ radar Application to Totten Ice Shelf Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 (Ref: 16392)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A phase-sensitive radar (ApRES) was deployed on Totten Ice Shelf to provide the first in situ basal melt estimate at this dynamic East Antarctic ice shelf.

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)…

Differential mobilization of blubber fatty acids in lactating Weddell seals: evidence for selective use. Physiological and Biochemical Zoology, 2008 (Ref: 13850)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A major source of energy during lactation in mammals is provided … through the mobilization of blubber fatty acids (FAs).

Unsaturated diether lipids in the psychrotrophic archaeon Halorubrum lacusprofundi. Systematic and Applied Microbiology, 2005 (Ref: 11827)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The major phospholipids of Halorubrum lacusprofundi grown at 25 1C were archaeol phosphatidylglycerol, archaeol … phosphatidylglycerylsulphate and archaeol phosphatidylglycerylphosphate methyl ester.Glycolipids included a monoglycosyl archaeol and the sulphate ester of a diglycosyl archaeol.

Colony-based foraging segregation by Antarctic fur seals at the Kerguelen Archipelago. Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2008 (Ref: 13845)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The foraging behaviour of conspecific female Antarctic fur seals (AFS) was compared … simultaneously at 2 breeding colonies at Iles Kerguelen (S Indian Ocean). A remnant colony at IIes … Nuageuses (IN)…
