Shearwater foraging in the Southern Ocean: The roles of prey availability and winds PLoS ONE, 2010 (Ref: 14127)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Background: Sooty (Puffinus griseus) and short-tailed (P. tenuirostris) shearwaters are abundant seabirds that range widely across global oceans. Understanding the foraging ecology of these species in the Southern Ocean is important for … monitoring and ecosystem conservation and management.

Rapid development and persistence of a massive Antarctic sea ice tongue Journal of Geophysical Research, 2008 (Ref: 13663)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

An extraordinary sea ice tongue developed near 85E over a period of 30 days in … April–May 2002. The ice tongue extended to the north more than 800 km from the … surrounding ice edge and covered an area greater than 200,000 km2.

On the relationship between fronts of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and surface chlorophyll concentrations in the Southern Ocean Journal of Geophysical Research - Oceans, 2007 (Ref: 13381)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We reexamine the relationship between circulation, bathymetry, and surface … chlorophyll in the Southern Ocean, using new high-resolution maps of the frontal structure … of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) derived from satellite altimetry.

Tracking the Antarctic Circumpolar Current fronts using penguin and seal dive data. Abstracts from the SCAR Open Science Conference, Hobart, 12-14 July 2006., 2006 (Ref: 12607)
Category 3: Abstract

Vertical temperature profiles collected by king penguins and elephant seals are used to map … oceanographic fronts south of Australia and New Zealand. Independently, the Southern … Ocean front locations are derived using satellite synoptic maps of sea surface height (SSH).

Network approaches to marine regionalisation. Network Theory Working Group Meeting 3, CSIRO Sustainable Ecosystems, Canberra, June 2006., 2006 (Ref: 12530)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Regionalisation algorithms attempt to partition a broad spatial area into discrete spatial regions, each with relatively homogeneous environmental or biotic conditions. Marine regionalisations commonly make use of data that can be represented naturally in a network context…

Tracking the polar front south of New Zealand using penguin dive data. Deep-Sea Research I, 2006 (Ref: 12334)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Nearly 36,000 vertical temperature profiles collected by 15 king penguins are used to map oceanographic fronts south of … New Zealand. There is good correspondence between Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC)…

Upper ocean temperature and baroclinic transport stream function relationship in Drake Passage. Journal of Geophysical Research, 2004 (Ref: 12067)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Repeat hydrographic sections across the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) in Drake Passage are used to derive an empirical relationship between upper ocean … temperature and the baroclinic transport stream function.

Subsurface structure of interannual temperature anomalies in the Australian sector of the Southern Ocean. Journal of Geophysical Research, 2003 (Ref: 12064)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A 7 year time series of austral summer expendable bathythermograph (XBT) sections between Tasmania and Antarctica is used to describe the subsurface structure of Southern Ocean interannual temperature anomalies. Comparison of the discontinuous XBT record with a continuous (weekly average)…
