Arctic chironomids of the northwest North Atlantic reflect environmental and biogeographic gradients (2020)
Journal Article
Medeiros, A. S., Milošević, Đ., Francis, D. R., Maddison, E., Woodroffe, S., Long, A., …Axford, Y. (2021). Arctic chironomids of the northwest North Atlantic reflect environmental and biogeographic gradients. Journal of Biogeography, 48(3), 511-525. https://doi.org/10.1111/jbi.14015

Aim: While we understand broad climate drivers of insect distributions throughout the Arctic, less is known about the role of spatial processes in determining these relationships. As such, there is a need to understand how spatial controls may influe... Read More about Arctic chironomids of the northwest North Atlantic reflect environmental and biogeographic gradients.

Social tipping points and Earth systems dynamics (2014)
Journal Article
Bentley, R., Maddison, E., Ranner, P., Bissell, J., Caiado, C., Bhatanacharoen, P., …Garnett, P. (2014). Social tipping points and Earth systems dynamics. Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2, Article 35. https://doi.org/10.3389/fenvs.2014.00035

Recently, Early Warning Signals (EWS) have been developed to predict tipping points in Earth Systems. This discussion highlights the potential to apply EWS to human social and economic systems, which may also undergo similar critical transitions. Soc...

Seasonally-laminated diatom-rich sediments from Dumont d’Urville Trough, East Antarctic Margin: Late Holocene Neoglacial sea-ice conditions (2012)
Journal Article
Neoglacial sea-ice conditions. Holocene, 22(8), 857-875. https://doi.org/10.1177/0959683611434223

Laminated sediments are unique archives of palaeoenvironmental and palaeoceanographic conditions, recording changes on seasonal and interannual timescales. Diatom-rich laminated marine sediments are examined from Dumont d’Urville Trough, East Antarct...

Observations on the relationship between the Antarctic coastal diatoms Thalassiosira antarctica Comber and Porosira glacialis (Grunow) Jorgensen and sea ice concentrations during the late Quaternary. Marine Micropaleontology, 73(1-2), 14-25. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marmicro.2009.06.005

The available ecological and palaeoecological information for two sea ice-related marine diatoms (Bacillariophyceae), Thalassiosira antarctica Comber and Porosira glacialis (Grunow) Jorgensen, suggests that these two species have similar sea surface...

An ultra-high-resolution post-glacial laminated sediment record from Mertz Ninnis Trough, East Antarctic Margin (EAM), has been analysed using SEM backscattered electron imagery, secondary electron imagery and quantitative diatom abundance. Laminatio... Read More about Post-glacial seasonal diatom record of the Mertz Glacier Polynya, East Antarctica.

East Antarctic Margin marine sediment record of deglaciation (2006)
Journal Article

Deglacial seasonal and sub-seasonal diatom record from Palmer Deep, Antarctica (2005)
Journal Article

The Antarctic Peninsula is one of the most sensitive regions of Antarctica to climate change. Here, ecological and cryospheric systems respond rapidly to climate fluctuations. A 4.4 m thick laminated diatom ooze deposited during the last deglaciation... Read More about Deglacial seasonal and sub-seasonal diatom record from Palmer Deep, Antarctica.
