Interpolation errors in UV–visible spectroscopy for stratospheric sensing: implications for sensitivity, spectral resolution, and spectral range

1 January, 1996 by Howard Roscoe

UV–visible measurements of stratospheric constituents require the ratio of a pair of spectra to be determined. If their wavelength calibrations differ and if an array detector is used, at least…

Early Paleozoic sedimentation, magmatism, and deformation in the Pensacola Mountains, Antarctica: The significance of the Ross orogeny

1 January, 1996

Combined sedimentological, structural, and geochemical studies of a lower Paleozoic succession within the Pensacola Mountains, Antarctica, suggest that it probably formed in a foreland basin setting during the Ross-Delamerian orogen,…

Rhincalanus gigas and Calanus simillimus: lipid storage patterns of two species of copepod in the seasonally ice-free zone of the Southern Ocean

1 January, 1996 by Peter Ward

The lipid and hydrocarbon composition of two species of Antarctic copepod, Rhincalanus gigas and Calanus simillimus, was investigated at two contrasting sites. Differences in the quantity of total lipid between…

The Moores Peak Formation, a Cretaceous debris-avalanche deposit in the Antarctic Peninsula Volcanic Group, Livingston Island, South Shetland Islands

1 January, 1996

The Moores Peak Formation occurs on eastern Hurd Peninsula, Livingston Island, part of the South Shetland Island volcanic arc, which was active during Mesozoic and Cenozoic times. The rocks were…

The relationship between water content and cold tolerance in the arctic collembolan Onychiurus arcticus (Collembola: Onychiuridae)

1 January, 1996 by Roger Worland

The arctic collembolan Onychiurus arcticus is freezing intolerant and experiences temperatures below -25°C during winter periods of low air temperatures and only light snow cover. Summer-collected individuals have a mean…

An annual profile of growth in the otoliths of immature Notothenia coriiceps Richardson in relation to the environment at Signy Island, Antarctica

1 December, 1995

Scanning electron microscope and image analysis techniques were used to construct a profile of otolith growth from June 1987–June 1988 in immature Notothenia coriiceps. Growth was found to fluctuate seasonally…

Acid sulphate alteration in a magmatic hydrothermal environment, Barton Peninsula, King George Island, Antarctica

1 September, 1995

Volcanic-hosted advanced argillic alteration on Barton Peninsula comprises an assemblage of chalcedonic silica, alunite family minerals, pyrophyllite, pyrite, native sulphur, zunyite and rutile, characteristic of an acid sulphate-type epithermal system.…
