The foraging distribution and habitat use of chick-rearing snow petrels from two colonies in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica (2025)
Journal Article
Honan, E. M., Wakefield, E. D., Phillips, R. A., Grecian, W. J., Prince, S., Robert, H., Descamps, S., Rix, A., Hoelzel, A. R., & McClymont, E. L. (2025). The foraging distribution and habitat use of chick-rearing snow petrels from two colonies in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. Marine Biology, 172(7), Article 109. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00227-025-04657-w

The polar sea-ice zones are highly productive and seasonal habitats that support large populations of vertebrate predators. In the Antarctic, snow petrels (Pagodroma nivea) are regarded as highly ice-dependant, yet knowledge of their habitat use and...

Journal Article
O'Brien, K. M., Rix, A. S., Jasmin, A., & Lavelle, E. (2024). The hypoxia response pathway in the Antarctic fish Notothenia coriiceps is functional despite a poly Q/E insertion mutation in HIF-1α. Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology - Part D: Genomics and Proteomics, 50, Article 101218. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cbd.2024.101218

Antarctic notothenioid fishes, inhabiting the oxygen-rich Southern Ocean, possess a polyglutamine and glutamic acid (poly Q/E) insertion mutation in the master transcriptional regulator of oxygen homeostasis, hypoxia- inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α). To... Read More about The hypoxia response pathway in the Antarctic fish Notothenia coriiceps is functional despite a poly Q/E insertion mutation in HIF-1α..

The untapped potential of seascape genomics in the North Pacific (2023)
Journal Article
Timm, L. E., Tucker, N., Rix, A., LaBua, S., López, J. A., Boswell, K. M., & Glass, J. R. (2023). The untapped potential of seascape genomics in the North Pacific. Frontiers in Conservation Science, 4, Article 1249551. https://doi.org/10.3389/fcosc.2023.1249551

Seascape genomics provides a powerful framework to evaluate the presence and strength of environmental pressures on marine organisms, as well as to forecast long term species stability under various perturbations. In the highly productive North Pacif... Read More about The untapped potential of seascape genomics in the North Pacific.
