New insights into the origins of crustaceans of Antarctic lakes Antarctic Science, 2007 (Ref: 13069)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

New evidence regarding the origins of the Crustacea of Antarctic lakes is reviewed. Palaeolimnological data indicates that the cladoceran Daphniopsis studeri has been present in Lake Reid, Larsemann Hills, for over 120 000 yr.

Some like it wet — biological characteristics underpinning tolerance of extreme water stress events in Antarctic bryophytes. Functional Plant Biology, 2006 (Ref: 12318)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic bryophyte communities presently tolerate physiological extremes in water availability, surviving both desiccation and submergence events.

Climate change manipulations show Antarctic flora is more strongly affected by elevated nutrients than water. Global Change Biology, 2006 (Ref: 12682)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Climate change is expected to affect the high latitudes first and most severely, rendering … Antarctica one of the most significant baseline environments for the study of global … climate change. The indirect effects of climate warming…

Holocene development of the fauna of Lake Boeckella, northern Antarctic Peninsula. The Holocene, 2006 (Ref: 12581)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The origins of the freshwater fauna that inhabits Antarctic lakes are poorly known. The species … present today could be relict species that have survived Quaternary glaciations on the continent, or … Holocene migrants from more temperate regions.

Barometers of the Antarctic: What seals tell us about climate change. An address given to the Veterinary Science Foundation, University of Sydney, 6 July 2006, 2006 (Ref: 12574)
Authors:
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Once again Antarctica is under threat with the proposal by Senator Barnaby Joyce to have mining sanctioned by the Australian Government. Dr Tracey Rogers, presenter of the 2006 J D Stewart Address at the University of Sydney Faculty of Veterinary Science…

Southern Ocean ventilation inferred from seasonal cycles of atmospheric N2O and O2/N2 at Cape Grim, Tasmania. Tellus, 2005 (Ref: 12171)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The seasonal cycle of atmospheric N2O is derived from a 10-yr observational record at Cape Grim, Tasmania (41◦S, 145◦E). After correcting for thermal and stratospheric influences…

Antarctic bryophytes and global climate change: Seasonal patterns in tolerance of desiccation. Journal of Experimental Botany (Supplement)., 2001 (Ref: 10170)
Category 3: Poster

Bryophytes (mosses and liverworts) are sensitive indicators of environmental change and with climate change expected to occur first at high latitudes, Antarctic bryophytes are ideal study systems for the detection of climate change effects.

Antarctic bryophytesand global climate change: Seasonal patterns in tolerance of desiccation for three moss species from the Windmill Islands, East Antarctica. Com Bio 2000. Australian Society of Plant Physiologists Annual Meeting. Published Abstracts. Wellington, New Zealand., December 11-14, 2000., 2000 (Ref: 10168)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Bryophytes are sensitive indicators of environmental change and with climate change being expected to occur first at high latitudes, Antarctic bryophytes are ideal study systems for the detection of climate change effects.
