Prawns (Chorismus antarcticus) caught by mesh traps at the Vestfold Hills
This record describes the collection of marine fauna sampled from coastal areas of the Vestfold Hills in 1999. The project was undertaken to compile morphometric data on Weddell... -
Photoquadrat survey of hard substratum assemblages around Casey Station:...
A survey of the epibenthic fauna of hard-substrata was made around Casey Station, using a camera mounted on a frame to take photoquadrats. A nested sampling design was used with... -

The fate of primary production in Antarctic sea ice: the role of metazoan grazers.
Crustaceans are an important component of the Antarctic marine ecosystem. Large numbers live in or close to the sea-ice cover, using it as a refuge from predation and a source... -
