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.
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…
Southern hemisphere humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae, SHHW) breeding populations follow a high-fidelity Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) diet while feeding in distinct sectors of the Southern Ocean.
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.
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.
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.
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)…
A major source of energy during lactation in mammals is provided … through the mobilization of blubber fatty acids (FAs).
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.
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)…
