Antarktis-bibliografi er en database over den norske Antarktis-litteraturen.
Hensikten med bibliografien er å synliggjøre norsk antarktisforskning og annen virksomhet/historie i det ekstreme sør. Bibliografien er ikke komplett, spesielt ikke for nyere forskning, men den blir oppdatert.
Norsk er her definert som minst én norsk forfatter, publikasjonssted Norge eller publikasjon som har utspring i norsk forskningsprosjekt.
Antarktis er her definert som alt sør for 60 grader. I tillegg har vi tatt med Bouvetøya.
Det er ingen avgrensing på språk (men det meste av innholdet er på norsk eller engelsk). Eldre norske antarktispublikasjoner (den eldste er fra 1894) er dominert av kvalfangst og ekspedisjoner. I nyere tid er det den internasjonale polarforskninga som dominerer. Bibliografien er tverrfaglig; den dekker både naturvitenskapene, politikk, historie osv. Skjønnlitteratur er også inkludert, men ikke avisartikler eller upublisert materiale.
Til høyre finner du en «HELP-knapp» for informasjon om søkemulighetene i databasen. Mange referanser har lett synlige lenker til fulltekstversjon av det aktuelle dokumentet. For de fleste tidsskriftartiklene er det også lagt inn sammendrag.
Bibliografien er produsert ved Norsk Polarinstitutts bibliotek.

The dive profiles of pursuit-diving marine predators are often used to infer foraging behaviour, including potential indicators of prey consumption. ‘Wiggles’ are undulations in dive profiles that relate to foraging activity in a variety of marine predators. In penguins, wiggles are sometimes used as a proxy for prey consumption (e.g., catch per unit effort, CPUE), but this relationship remains poorly validated and likely varies with diet. We deployed animal-borne video cameras and depth recorders on chinstrap penguins (Pygoscelis antarcticus; n = 37) and identified over 17,000 euphausiid prey captures - mainly Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) - during dives deeper than 3 m (n = 2458 dives). Using the video-observed prey captures as a reference, we tested how well various wiggle metrics derived from 1 Hz depth data predicted krill consumption by the penguins. Wiggle metrics generally showed a positive but noisy and highly variable relationship with the number of krill captured per dive, with association strength varying among metrics. While it is tempting to infer detailed foraging behaviours from dive wiggles (including ‘bottom distance’ generated by the R package diveMove), our results show: (1) notable rates of foraging – non-foraging dive misclassification; (2) only moderate agreement between CPUE estimated from wiggle counts and video observations; and (3) imprecise predictive models of actual prey consumption. While wiggle analyses offer some insight into prey consumption of krill-feeding penguins, our results suggest that alternative methods (e.g., acceleration-based indices) are needed to obtain more robust quantitative estimates of prey consumption.

Seabirds can disperse widely when searching for prey, particularly during nonbreeding periods. Conservation measures predominately focus on protecting breeding colonies, while spatial protection at sea is often based on knowledge of the distribution of breeding adults, despite accumulating evidence that marine habitats used by immature birds sometimes differ from those of adults. Juvenile emperor penguins from Atka Bay, west Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica, tracked immediately after fledging performed long migrations to the northern extents of the Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources subareas 48.4 and 48.6. Individuals did not remain long at their northern positions, before commencing a rapid southerly movement to within a few hundred km of the marginal ice zone (MIZ). The initial migratory movement was broadly synchronous across individuals. The southward movement and subsequent change to area-restricted searching were consistent with the MIZ representing a potentially important feeding habitat for juvenile emperor penguins. Spatio-temporal management mechanisms may be beneficial in reducing threats to these young penguins.
