Animals living in the Southern Ocean have evolved in a singular environment. It shares
many of its attributes with the high Arctic, namely low, stable temperatures, the pervading …

Antarctic ecosystems are under increasing anthropogenic pressure, but efforts to predict the
responses of Antarctic biodiversity to environmental change are hindered by considerable …

Pig farming is one of the major sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the
agricultural sector; nevertheless, few studies have been undertaken to directly measure or …

In recent years, sea ice cover along coasts of East Antarctica has tended to increase. To
understand ecological implications of these environmental changes, we studied benthic …

Wildlife population dynamics are shaped by multiple natural and anthropogenic factors,
including predation, competition, stressful life history events, and external environmental …

Robust ecological forecasting requires accurate predictions of physiological responses to
environmental drivers. Energy budget models facilitate this by mechanistically linking …

Early-life stages play a key role in the dynamics of bipartite life cycle marine fish populations.
Difficult to monitor, observations of these stages are often scattered in space and time. While …

Aim In the context of intensifying threats of climate change on marine communities,
ecological models are widely applied for conservation strategies, though polar studies …

Abstract Laternula elliptica (PP King, 1832) is the sole representative of the
anomalodesmatan family Laternulidae and the largest bivalve in the Antarctic and …

The mechanistic approach and the potential predictive power of Dynamic Energy Budget
(DEB) models are making this modelling framework increasingly popular in aquaculture …
