Using telemetry data and the sea ice satellite record to identify vulnerabilities in critical moult habitat for emperor penguins in West Antarctica
We tracked adult emperor penguins from Rothschild Island, west Antarctic Peninsula in 2015/2016 during a summer with extensive sea ice of long...

Contrasting sea ice conditions shape microbial food webs in Hudson Bay (Canadian Arctic)
The transition from ice-covered to open water is a recurring feature of the Arctic and sub-Arctic, but microbial diversity and cascading effects on...

Atlantic water influx and sea-ice cover drive taxonomic and functional shifts in Arctic marine bacterial communities
The Arctic Ocean is experiencing unprecedented changes because of climate warming, necessitating detailed analyses on the ecology and dynamics of...

The direct influence of climate change on marginal populations: a review
Climatic changes and their impact on animals and plants at the margins of their distributions are evident in terrestrial, limnic, and marine...

Societal importance of Antarctic negative feedbacks on climate change: blue carbon gains from sea ice, ice shelf and glacier losses
Diminishing prospects for environmental preservation under climate change are intensifying efforts to boost capture, storage and sequestration...

Diversity and Endemism of the Marsupials of Australia’s Arid Zone
The arid and semiarid regions of Australia encompass about three quarters of the continent. This vast area – the arid zone – is characterized by very... -

Sea-ice habitat minimizes grazing impact and predation risk for larval Antarctic krill
Survival of larval Antarctic krill ( Euphausia superba ) during winter is largely dependent upon the presence of sea ice as it provides an important...

Influence of sea-ice-related features and anthropogenic subsidies on the foraging behaviour of a high-Arctic seabird, the ivory gull (Pagophila eburnea)
The Arctic region is currently experiencing major modifications in sea ice extent and phenology due to global climate and anthropogenic changes. As...

Water mass influence on spatial and seasonal distributions of diatoms, dinoflagellates and coccolithophores in the western Barents Sea
Arctic phytoplankton are highly sensitive to seawater physical and chemical conditions, especially in the context of rapid climate change and sea ice...

Heat tolerance and evaporative cooling capacity in an arid-zone elephant shrew
Endotherms vary widely in their capacity to defend sublethal body temperature ( T b ) during acute heat exposure. Interspecific variation in the upper...

Characterising the molecular diversity of ash (Fraxinus excelsior L.) at its western marginal range in Europe — phylogeographic insights and implications for conservation in Ireland
A large proportion of the western marginal range for common ash ( Fraxinus excelsior L.) is located on the island of Ireland. However, the molecular...

Differential kinetics of splenic CD169+ macrophage death is one underlying cause of virus infection fate regulation
Acute infection and chronic infection are the two most common fates of pathogenic virus infections. While several factors that contribute to these...
