Viruses that infect bacteria (bacteriophages or phages) are the most abundant biological entities in thebiosphere. Phages play a central role in shaping microbial communities and regulating global biogeochemicalcycles. T...

Se describe en detalle un nuevo estípite petrificado de Millerocaulis Erasmus ex Tidwell emend. Vera, colectado en afloramientos de edad aptiana de la Formación Cerro Negro en Isla Livingston (Antártida). Este espéci...

Sea-ice motion plays a pivotal role in the variability of the Antarctic climate system by modulating the atmosphere–ocean fluxes and the ocean freshwater budget. Due to the variability of the ice surface, snow&#x2...

We identified six fossil-species of angiosperms based on fossil woods from two small collections from the Beta Member (lower Campanian) of the Santa Marta Formation on James Ross Island: 1) Paraphyllanthoxylon antarcticu...

The seed cone Telemachus is known from several Triassic localities in Gondwana. New specimens from two localities in Antarctica provide additional information about the type species, Telemachus elongatus, based on detail...

The diet of non-breeding male Antarctic fur seals Arctocephalus gazella was investigated at different localities of the Antarctic Peninsula (Cierva Point and Hope Bay), South Shetland Islands (Deception Island and Potter...

Lu-Hf isotope data are presented for dated Permian zircon grains from six samples of the latest Palaeozoic to Jurassic low-grade metasedimentary rocks of western Patagonia and the northern Antarctic Peninsula, as well as...

O trabalho aborda a história do empreendimento colonizador francês na área da baía de Guanabara que se desenvolveu entre 1555 e 1560, conhecida pelo nome de França Antártica. A experiência francesa foi derrotada p...

The productivity and linkages in the food web of the southern region of the west Antarctic Peninsula continental shelf were investigated using a multi-trophic level mass balance model. Data collected during the Southern ...

Different morphotypes of vertically embedded ammonoid shells are abundant in the 1-km-thick deposits of the Santa Marta Formation, Antarctica, that record the evolution of a deep-water delta system. Vertical shells depos...

In this study, we describe, for the first time, the genetic composition of the southern elephant seal Mirounga leonina (SES) breeding colony at Potter Peninsula (PP) (King George Island, Antarctica) based on a fragment o...

Three azulenoid sesquiterpenes (1 – 3) were isolated from the Antarctic gorgonian Acanthogorgia laxa collected by bottom trawls at −343 m. Besides linderazulene (1), and the known ketolactone 2, a new brominated C...

The long-term evolution of total ozone column inside the Antarctic polar vortex is investigated over the 1980-2016 period. Trend analyses are performed using a multilinear regression (MLR) model based on various proxies ...

Despite being one of the most diversified families of mollusks in sub-Antarctic and Antarctic waters, Philobryidae Bernard, 1897 still appears as a poorly studied family of bivalves. The aim of this study is to contribut...

Abstract The upwelling of warm Circumpolar Deep Water is a key process in the global climate system, transporting heat, nutrients, and carbon poleward towards Antarctic ice shelves. Here we use physical and chemical seaw...

Tree growth is one of the main variables needed for forest management planning. The use of simple models containing traditional equations to describe tree growth is common. However, equations that incorporate different f...

© 2017 Elsevier B.V. Current winemaking trends include low-temperature fermentations and using non-Saccharomyces yeasts as the most promising tools to produce lower alcohol and increased aromatic complexity wines. Here ...

En las asociaciones de quistes de dinoflagelados del Eoceno medio a tardío de cuencas subtropicales del Atlántico Sudoccidental se registra la presencia de especies de Enneadocysta, entre ellas: E. dictyostila (Menénd...

Modern baleen whales (Mysticeti), the largest animals on Earth, arose from small ancestors around 36.4 million years ago (Ma). True gigantism is thought to have arisen late in mysticete history, with species exceeding 10...

Abstract Adélie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) colonies can be detected from space using very high‐resolution (VHR; 0.3–0.6 m resolution) satellite imagery, as the contrast between their guano and the surrounding te...

We thank Panero for his interest in our paper. However, we consider his interpretations somewhat incomplete and misleading, principally because he reports results using methods that we did not apply in our study, and und...

Abstract The Ship Of Opportunity Expendable BathyThermograph (SOOP-XBT) Network has been measuring upper ocean temperature aboard volunteer vessels over multiple decades in key locations of the global ocean. Through inte...

Speciation through homoploid hybridization (HHS) is considered extremely rare in animals. This is mainly because the establishment of reproductive isolation as a product of hybridization is uncommon. Additionally, many t...
