We present PATICE, a GIS database of Patagonian glacial geomorphology and recalibrated
chronological data. PATICE includes 58,823 landforms and 1,669 geochronological ages …

A global overview of glacier advances and retreats (grouped by regions and by millennia)
for the Holocene is compiled from previous studies. The reconstructions of glacier …

This chapter assesses the state of physical, biological and social knowledge concerning the
Arctic and Antarctic ocean and cryosphere, how they are affected by climate change, and …

Range shift is the primary short-term species response to rapid climate change, but it is often
hampered by natural or anthropogenic habitat fragmentation. Different critical areas of a …

A robust understanding of Antarctic Ice Sheet deglacial history since the Last Glacial
Maximum is important in order to constrain ice sheet and glacial-isostatic adjustment …

Terrestrial biota in the Antarctic are more globally distinct and highly structured
biogeographically than previously believed, but information on biogeographic patterns and …

Abstract Ice-free areas occupy< 0.5% of Antarctica and are unevenly distributed across the
continent. Terrestrial ecosystem dynamics in ice free areas are strongly influenced by …

Global cooling and glacial–interglacial cycles since Antarctica's isolation have been
responsible for the diversification of the region's marine fauna. By contrast, these same Earth …

Antarctica and the Southern Ocean comprise a critical part of the Earth System. Their
environments are better understood than ever before, yet the region remains poorly …

Proxy records from across the Southern Hemisphere show significant local to regional scale
variability in climatic and environmental conditions during late Marine Isotope Stage 3 and …
