Ocean Acidification at High Latitudes: Potential Effects on Functioning of the Antarctic Bivalve Laternula elliptica
Ocean acidification is a well recognised threat to marine ecosystems. High latitude regions
are predicted to be particularly affected due to cold waters and naturally low carbonate …

Nitrogen and carbon isotope values of individual amino acids: a tool to study foraging ecology of penguins in the Southern Ocean
We determined the δ 15 N and δ 13 C values of individual amino acids (AAs) isolated from
chick blood of 4 penguin species that forage in different oceanic regions (from the subtropics …
