  • Potential Regime Shift in Decreased Sea Ice Production After the Mertz Glacier Calving
    ARTICLE Received 27 Jan 2012 | Accepted 3 Apr 2012 | Published 8 May 2012 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms1820 Potential regime shift in decreased sea ice production after the Mertz Glacier calving T. Tamura1,2,*, G.D. Williams2,*, A.D. Fraser2 & K.I. Ohshima3 Variability in dense shelf water formation can potentially impact Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) production, a vital component of the global climate system. In East Antarctica, the George V Land polynya system (142–150°E) is structured by the local ‘icescape’, promoting sea ice formation that is driven by the offshore wind regime. Here we present the first observations of this region after the repositioning of a large iceberg (B9B) precipitated the calving of the Mertz Glacier Tongue in 2010. Using satellite data, we find that the total sea ice production for the region in 2010 and 2011 was 144 and 134 km3, respectively, representing a 14–20% decrease from a value of 168 km3 averaged from 2000–2009. This abrupt change to the regional icescape could result in decreased polynya activity, sea ice production, and ultimately the dense shelf water export and AABW production from this region for the coming decades. 1 National Institute of Polar Research, Tachikawa, Japan. 2 Antarctic Climate & Ecosystem Cooperative Research Centre, University of Tasmania, Hobart, Australia. 3 Institute of Low Temperature of Science, Sapporo, Japan. *These authors contributed equally to this work.

  • Haswell Island (Haswell Island and Adjacent Emperor Penguin Rookery on Fast Ice)
    Measure 5 (2016) Management Plan for Antarctic Specially Protected Area No. 127 Haswell Island (Haswell Island and Adjacent Emperor Penguin Rookery on Fast Ice) 1. Description of values to be protected The area includes Haswell Island with its littoral zone and adjacent fast ice when present. Haswell Island was discovered in 1912 by the Australian Antarctic Expedition led by D. Mawson. It was named after William Haswell, professor of biology who rendered assistance to the expedition. Haswell is the biggest island of the same-name archipelago, with a height of 93 meters and 0,82 sq.meters in area. The island is at 2,5 km distance from the Russian Mirny Station operational from 1956. At East and South-East of the island, there is a large colony of Emperor penguins (Aptenodytes forsteri) on fast ice. The Haswell Island is a unique breeding site for almost all breeding bird species in East Antarctica including the: Antarctic petrel (Talassoica antarctica), Antarctic fulmar (Fulmarus glacioloides), Cape petrel (Daption capense), Snow petrel (Pagodroma nivea), Wilson’s storm petrel (Oceanites oceanicus), South polar skua (Catharacta maccormicki), Lonnberg skua Catharacta antarctica lonnbergi and Adelie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae). The Area supports five species of pinnipeds, including the Ross seal (Ommatophoca rossii) which falls in the protected species category. ATCM VIII (Oslo, 1975) approved its designation as SSSI 7 on the aforementioned grounds after a proposal by the USSR. Map 1 shows the location of the Haswell Islands (except Vkhodnoy Island), Mirny Station, and logistic activity sites. It was renamed and renumbered as ASPA No. 127 by Decision 1 (2002).

Insgesamt können 24 Arten nachgewiesen werden. Tonnoidea weisen generell eine ungewöhnliche weite geographische und stratigraphische Verbreitung auf, wie sie bei anderen Gastropoden unbekannt ist. Dementsprechend sind die paratethyalen Arten meist auch in der mediterranen und der atlantischen Bioprovinz vertreten. Einige Arten treten zuerst im mittleren Miozän der Paratethys auf. Insgesamt dokumentiert die Verteilung der tonnoiden Gastropoden in der Parate- thys einen starken klimatischen Einfluss.

These poorly studied projections arise as extensions either of external spiral cords or of interspaces between cords. This paper describes taxonomic, phylogenetic, architectural and func- tional aspects of serrations. Cord-associated serrations occur in cerithiids, strombids, the personid Distorsio anus, ocenebrine muricids and some cancellariids. Interspace-associated serrations are phylo- genetically much more widespread, and occur in at least 16 family-level groups. The nature of serration may be taxonomically informative in some fissurellids, littorinids, strombids and costellariids, among other groups. Serrated outer lips occur only in gastropods in which the apex points more backward than upward, but the presence of serrations is not a necessary byproduct of the formation of spiral sculp- tural elements.
