Aleksandr Stepanovich Kuchin: the Russian who went south with Amundsen - Barr, William (Polar Record, 1985)
Aleksandr Stepanovich Kuchin (1888–1912) was already an experienced mariner and oceanographer when Amundsen invited him to join the Fram expedition of 1910–12. Expecting a voyage through the Barents Sea, Kuchin found himself on an expedition to the Antarctic. While Amundsen's sledging parties sought the South Pole, Kuchin remained with the ship, completing an excellent oceanographic survey of the southern Atlantic Ocean. Returning to Russia in 1912 he was recruited, by the geologist and explorer V. A. Rusinov to join a scientific expedition to Svalbard. As deputy leader of the party and captain of Gerkules, the expedition ship, Kuchin played an important role in the Svalbard survey. Then once again found himself heading in an unexpected direction: on completing the Svalbard work, Rusanov decided to attempt the Northern Sea Route to the Bering Strait. Gerkules disappeared and was never seen again; her loss, presumably in the Kara Sea, brought to an untimely end the career of a promising young polar explorer.

Technological transformation in the Norwegian whaling industry in the interwar period - Basberg, Bjørn L (Scandinavian Economic History Review, 1985)
Inventions, innovations and technological changes in the broadest sense are often treated as an independent process and are not subjected to any detailed attempts at explanation. It is scarcely anything exceptional, for example, that Sigurd Risting, the first historian of the whaling industry in Norway, explains the development of whaling as follows: Thus there has been a large stock of finback whales along the coast of Norway for hundreds of years without their having been an object of regular profitable hunting. The reason for this has been nothing more than lack of tackle and methods capable of making hunting possible. The moment these become available, whaling as a rational business will arise by itself out of natural necessity, so to speak." Bjern L. Basberg, b. 1952, is a research fellow in economic history at the Norwegian School of Economic and Business Administration. The article is based on a thesis of 1980 titled: Innovasjons-teori, patenter og teknologisk utvikling i norsk hvalfangst ca. 1860-1968.

On the purification and characterization of three anionic, serine-type peptide hydrolases from antarctic krill, Euphausia Superba - Osnes, Knut Kristian; Mohr, Viggo (Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1985)
1. Three enzymes effecting hydrolysis of TAME have been purified from E. superba using gel filtration, affinity chromatography and FPLC-anion exchange chromatography. 2. The enzymes had molecular weights of 30,000 (Enzyme I), and 31,000 (Enzymes II and III), respectively, as estimated from SDS-PAGE. 3. pH-optima of about 8.2 were observed for all three enzymes. 4. The enzymes were inhibited by phenyl methyl sulphonyl fluoride (PMSF), tosyl lysyl chloromethyl ketone (TLCK) and soybean trypsin inhibitor (SBTI), whereas tosyl phenyl chloromethyl ketone (TPCK) had no effect on the activity. 5. The enzymes were stable at neutral pH, and only slowly inactivated at highly alkaline pH. Low pH rapidly inactivated all three enzymes. 6. Enzyme I liberated amino acids from casein, whereas Enzymes II and III did not; the latter two being true endopeptidases which effected enhanced amino acid production from casein when mixed with Enzyme I.

Peptide hydrolases of Antartic krill, Euphausia superba - Osnes, Knut Kristian; Mohr, Viggo (Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1985)
1. A survey has been made of the peptide hydrolase activities occurring in Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba. 2. A major protein hydrolyzing activity in the pH range of 6–8, and a minor activity at pH 3–4, were detected. 3. Temperature optima of approx. 50°C and 35–40°C, respectively were determined for the neutral and acid peptide hydrolases. 4. Trypsin-like activity, as well as carboxypeptidase A-, carboxypeptidase B-, and aminopeptidase activity were detected in extracts of krill. 5. Considerable variation in total hydrolase activity was observed in different catches of E. superba obtained from the same area. 6. The pattern of release of amino acids during autolytic breakdown of krill proteins was very similar in catches of krill exhibiting considerable differences with respect to total peptide hydrolase activity.

The distribution of lipid in the tissues of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba - Saether, Olav; Ellingsen, Trond E.; Mohr, Viggo (Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1985)
1. The distribution of lipid in the tissues of Euphausia superba has been examined by histological and chemical methods. 2. The total lipid content of krill from different catches may vary considerably, and the variations are probably due both to differences in nutritional status and maturity of the roe of female krill. 3. Female krill contained about twice as much lipid as male krill from the same haul. 4. The roe is the dominating lipid depot in female krill; in both male and female krill lipid-rich areas are found along the digestive tract, between muscle bundles and beneath the exoskeleton. 5. Both the phosphoglyceride- and triacylglycerol content of body fractions of E. superba varied in proportion to the total lipid content, thus supporting the contention that both phosphoglycerides and triacylglycerols serve as depot lipids in this species of krill.

Resting spore formation in the antarctic diatoms Coscinodiscus furcatus Karsten and Thalassiosira australis Peragallo - Syvertsen, Erik E. (Polar Biology, 1985)
The resting spore morphology of the antarctic diatoms Coscinodiscus furcatus Karsten and Thalassiosira australis Peragallo are described. Both species form endogenous resting spores. The spore valve of C. furcatus differ from those of the vegetative cells primarily by (i) a greater convexity and (ii) a coarser and more distinctly fasciculated areolation. This resting spore is identical to the diatom traditionally identified as C. stellaris var. symbolophorus (Grunow) Jørgensen in the Antarctic. The resting spore of T. australis differs from the vegetative cells by (i) a lack of clusters of strutted processes in a modified ring on valve face, (ii) a coarser areolation and tangential rows of areolae and (iii) a narrower and more simply structured girdle. The resting spore valve of T. australis has been described as belonging to a separate species, Actinocyclus excentricus Peragallo.

Size Frequency Pattern of Euphausia Superba in the Antarctic Peninsula Waters in the Austral Summer of 1983 - Fevolden, Svein Erik; George, Robert Y. (Journal of Crustacean Biology, 1984)
In the austral summer of 1983, schools of krill from Bransfield Strait and Palmer Archipelago were analyzed for composition in terms of size frequencies and maturity stages. Juveniles dominated in all schools, and mature animals never exceeded 6.8% of the animals at any sampling site. Gravid females were encountered in only four out of 15 schools and were never more frequent than 1.8% of the animals in any school. Among subadults and juveniles the largest animals were found on the inside of Palmer Archipelago. Smaller nonreproductive animals were on the outside and in Bransfield Strait. A second group of juveniles, in a size range of 12-15 mm, was more pronounced north of Crocker Passage than south of the Passage. Their potential origin from a more slowly growing and later spawning Southern Weddell Sea population is discussed. Lack of reproductive animals in the Bransfield/South Shetlands vicinity may reflect yearly variation in this region. A hypothesis is put forward on the basis of this study that Palmer Archipelago is a nursery ground for krill spawned elsewhere. The sites of origin of this krill could be ascertained on the basis of studies of enzyme polymorphism in these populations.

Marine and non-marine contribution to the chemical composition of snow at the Riiser-Larsenisen Ice Shelf in Antarctica - Gjessing, Yngvar (Atmospheric Environment (1967), 1984)
The distribution with depth of seven different ions in three snow profiles, 1, 60 and 120km from the coast on Riiser-Larsenisen Ice Shelf (72° 30′ S, 15°E) shows a close co-variation between ions of marine origin and non-correlation between these ions and ions of presumptively non-marine origin. The deposition rates of ions of marine origin vary as 50:1 over some 120 km distance from the coast. The SO42−Na+ ratio in snow near the coast is lower than for bulk sea water indicating a loss of SO42− in snow to the atmosphere by volatilization.

The antarctic diatoms Thalassiosira dichotomica (Kozlova) comb. nov. and T. ambigua kozlova - Fryxell, Greta A.; Hasle, Grethe Rytter (Polar Biology, 1983)
Two small antarctic diatoms, usually missed by traditional collection methods, have been studied in light and electron microscopes. Porosira dichotomica has been transferred to Thalassiosira since its valve structure and process pattern agree better with that genus. T. dichotomica is unusual in that some lines of areola walls are extended, sail-like, out from the valve, supporting Kozlova's original drawings. T. ambigua, the smaller of the two, has many similarities in structure with T. dichotomica, but has granules on the margin, lacks the sail-like structures on the valve, and has minor differences in processes and areola size. Bands stay together in T. ambigua and show more fine structure than many species in the genus.

The mineral resources of Antarctica: progress in their identification - Gjelsvik, Tore (Antarctic Resources Policy: Scientific, Legal and Political Issues, 1983)
The increment in informationCareful geological investigations started at a few places in Antarctica after World War II, but gained momentum and became systematic only when the International Geophysical Year started, and when SCAR and its Working Group on Geology were established just 25 years ago. Although geology was not initially part of the IGY programme, it soon became one of the thriving sciences in Antarctica.The growth of Antarctic geosciences can be shown in many ways, for example by the expansion of the Symposium volumes from the first one in 1963, containing 76 papers, to the latest one in August 1982, with 191 papers.The investigations have largely had the character of regional reconnaissance surveys, and the observations have mostly been published as general descriptions with maps at the scale of 1:1 million or smaller. Only one Antarctic nation has a systematic mapping programme of larger scales (1:500,000). In a few cases, such as in areas around some larger stations, more detailed work has been going on, in some cases also related to mineral occurrences. A few programmes are under way that have aspects of being resource-oriented: investigations of the Dufek Massif, a layered intrusion similar to the Cr-, Pt- and Ni-rich Bushfeld complex in South Africa, and sampling of manganese nodules during marine geological surveys. Airborne radiometric surveys and also some marine seismic surveys conducted by national oil companies or by resource-oriented state agencies belong to this category.

Modelling of antarctic tabular icebergs in ocean waves - Kristensen, Monica; Squire, Vernon A (Annals of Glaciology, 1983)
The prediction of the motions of a tabular iceberg in a seaway is a problem which cannot be solved with a simple approach. The main difficulty lies in the size and mass of the iceberg, which produce frequency-dependent hydrodynamical effects as it moves in the water. Specifically, any solution must take into account both the added inertia and the generation of surface waves caused by the motions of the berg. Early attempts at modelling, which did not include these terms, could not accurately predict the complicated response behaviour seen in field data. In this paper we discuss some modifications to a two-dimensional simulation of floating bodies in waves, which must be applied when the motions and the hydro-dynamical pressures beneath tabular icebergs are required.

The response of Antarctic icebergs to ocean waves - Wadhams, Peter; Kristensen, Monica; Orheim, Olav (Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1983)
The heave, tilt, and strain responses of three Antarctic tabular icebergs to ocean waves were measured during a 1980–1981 cruise of HMS Endurance to the South Atlantic. The three icebergs, located near the South Sandwich and South Orkney islands, were instrumented with accelerometers, tiltmeters, and wire strainmeters, while a Waverider buoy was used to record the ocean wave field. The thickness of the icebergs was surveyed by a helicopter-borne radio echo sounder. The heave response occurred mainly at the swell period but with outbreaks of bobbing which lasted for a few cycles at a resonant period (about 40 s), which agreed well with the predictions of a numerical finite element model. The roll response occurred mainly at a long resonant period (40–50 s), which again agreed well with the model, but there was also a significant response at ocean wave periods (5–20 s), which exceeded predictions. The strain response had a component at very long periods, which is unexplained by theory, while the surface strain at ocean wave periods agreed with the simple analytical model of Goodman et al. (1980). Using this model it is possible to predict a wave height and period that will cause breakup of the icebergs, and we conclude that swell-induced breakup is likely to occur during major storms in the open southern ocean.

Technological change in the Norwegian whaling industry: A case-study in the use of patent-statistics as a technology indicator - Basberg, Bjørn L (Research Policy, 1982)
This paper presents an example of the use of patent statistics as a technology indicator in one industry. The first part deals with the problem of interpretation. Through examination of several other partial technology indicators, it is concluded that at least in this industry, patent statistics provide a reliable indicator, not only for the timing of inventions, but for the timing of innovations and diffusion as well. The reason is that the intervals between the stages in the innovation process are very short. This contradicts evidence from many other industries, and it is therefore emphasized that generalizations are unwarranted. The second part of this paper deals with the possible causes of technological change in Norwegian whaling. The methodology is inspired by J. Schmookler's work. Thus, the patents are correlated with other indicators of economic development in the industry. But while Schmookler's view is that the patent activity is determined by social demand and economic growth, the conclusions for the Norwegian whaling industry point in the opposite direction: the technological transformation that took place during the 1920s and early 1930s was forced upon the firms in their efforts to cut costs, which was achieved by rationalizing production and catching methods in line with a downward price trend for whale oil.

Cold Hardiness of Terrestrial Mites at Signy Island, Maritime Antarctic - Block, William; Sømme, Lauritz (Oikos, 1982)
The cold hardiness of four species was studied in respect of supercooling ability, cryoprotective substances, chill-coma temperatures and survival under anaerobiosis. The effects of low temperature acclimation and starvation on cold hardiness were examined experimentally. (2) Mean supercooling points of field animals ranged from -6.1° to -28.8°C during Jan-Mar 1980. In Nanorchestes antarcticus (Strandtmann) and Alaskozetes antarcticus (Michael), a bimodal distribution of individual supercooling points occurred with the low group (LG) consisting of animals without gut nucleators. In Stereotydeus villosus (Trouessart) and Gamasellus racovitzai (Trouessart) only a high group (HG) was present in the supercooling-point distributions. (3) In all species, except the predatory G. racovitzai, starvation combined with low temperature exposure for various time periods lowered the mean supercooling point. This was associated with increased concentrations of glycerol in the body fluid. Glucose, ribitol and mannitol together with straight chain hydrocarbons were also detected in the extracts by GLC techniques. (4) Chill-coma temperatures varied from -4.5° to -8.0°C. (5) Under anoxia at 0°C, survival of A. antarcticus was greater than that of G. racovitzai, with the later nymphal stages being slightly more resistant than adults.

Petrology and geochemistry of Jurassic basalt dykes from Vestfjella, Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica - Furnes, Herald; Neumann, Else-Ragnhild; Sundvoll, Bjørn (Lithos, 1982)
Mineral and whole rocks analyses of 12 Jurassic basalt dykes from Vestfjella, Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica, are presented, and their genesis discussed. On the basis of major oxides and norms the basalts may be classified as olivine and quartz tholeiites. Plotted in the Plag Cpx (Opx + 4Q) and Ol Plag Q projections, the compositions are most compatible with fractional crystallization of olivine, clinopyroxene and plagioclase from a basalt liquid at very low pressure. The ratios between strongly incompatible elements such as Rb, Cs, Zr, Hf, Ta and Th vary considerably, and petrographic mixing calculations give poor fits with respect to Rb, Cs, Ta, Th and light REE. Initial 87Sr/86 Sr ratios range between 0.70347 and 0.70687, and show no correlation with Rb/Sr or any other SIE ratios. The trace element and Sr isotope data thus do not suggest any simple cogenetic petrogenetic model. It is concluded that the basalt melts most plausibly have been contaminated by, or mixed with anatectic melts of crustal material, rather than reflecting mantle heterogeneity.

Mercury and persistent chlorinated hydrocarbons in antarctic birds from bouvetøya and dronning maud land - Norheim, Gunnar; Sømme, Lauritz; Holt, Gunnar (Environmental Pollution Series A, Ecological and Biological, 1982)
The concentrations of DDE, PCB, hexachlorobenzene (HCB) and mercury were determined in samples from chinstrap penguin Pygoscelis antarctica, macaroni penguin Eudyptes chrysolophus, snow petrel Pagodroma nivea, Cape pigeon Daption capense, southern fulmar Fulmarus glacialoides, south polar skua Catharacta maccormicki and brown skua Catharacta lonnbergi. The birds were taken in central parts of Vestjella in Dronning Maud Land in February 1977 and at Bouvetøya in the South Atlantic in February 1977 and January 1979. Low levels of DDE, PCB and HCB were found in the two species of penguins, snow petrel, Cape pigeon and southern fulmar, while significantly higher levels were found in south polar and brown skua. The lowest mercury levels were found in the two penguin species and snow petrel. Cape pigeon, southern fulmar and south polar skua form an intermediate group, while the highest mercury levels were found in brown skua. It is assumed that there is a connection between the present findings and the migration pattern of the different birds. The results seem to be in agreement with previous investigations.

Present-day glaciation in the South Shetland Islands - Orheim, Olav; Govorukha, Leonid Sergeevich (Annals of Glaciology, 1982)
This paper presents mass-balance results from Deception Island for 1968–69 to 1973–74, from King George Island for the balance years 1969–70 and 1970–71, and from Livingston Island from 1971–72 to 1973–74. The accumulation areas of all localities are in the soaked fades, with a firn/ice transition at King George Island at 12 to 20 m depth. Of the glaciers studied, only “Gl” on Deception Island terminates wholly on land and has a relatively large ablation area. The mass-balance curves are similar for King George Island and Livingston Island, with equilibrium lines at around 150 m elevation. “Gl“ on Deception Island has more negative summer balances, and the equilibrium line ranged from 275 to 370 m during the six balance years. Here, there were no years of positive net mass balance, and large negative net values during the 1970–71 to 1972–73 balance years. This resulted from a lowered albedo caused by ash from the August 1970 eruption. Ash layers from the Deception Island eruptions are also observed on Livingston Island and King George Island, where they form stratigraphic markers in the accumulation areas of the glaciers. Annual balance variations from 1957–58 to 1970–71, based on stratigraphic studies at Deception Island and King George Island, show good correlations, indicating that the variations reflect changes in regional climate.

Cold Hardiness of Collembola at Signy Island, Maritime Antarctic - Sømme, Lauritz; Block, William (Oikos, 1982)
The cold hardiness of two Antarctic species of Collembola, Cryptopygus antarcticus Willem and Parisotoma octooculata (Willem), was studied in field fresh, starved and low temperature acclimated specimens at Signy Island, in the South Orkney Islands. Supercooling points of both species clearly fell in a high group (HG) and a low group (LG) with a division at ca. -15°C. Field fresh specimens mainly had HG supercooling points, while starvation at 5° and 15°C greatly increased the number of LG animals. Further evidence of the relation between supercooling and feeding status was obtained in C. antarcticus. Specimens fed moss turf homogenate almost entirely returned to HG supercooling points, indicating the presence of efficient nucleators in this substrate. In specimens fed purified green algae a high proportion of LG supercooling points was retained, which suggests a lack of nucleators in this kind of food. Increased ability of LG specimens to supercool was demonstrated in C. antarcticus following acclimation at -5°C, and in P. octooculata at 0°C. In C. antarcticus an increase in concentrations of cryoprotective substances took place at -5°C concurrent with the lowering of the mean supercooling point. The main substances of the multicomponent cryoprotectant system of this species were trehalose, mannitol and glycerol. Chill-coma temperatures of specimens collected in the field differed in C. antarcticus and P. octooculata with mean values of -8.3° and -4.8°C, respectively. P. octooculata was less resistant to anaerobic conditions than C. antarcticus. All specimens of the former species were killed within 8 d in nitrogen at 0°C, while ca. 30% of C. antarcticus specimens survived after 28 d.

Glaciomarine sediments and suspended particulate matter, Weddell sea, Antarctica (abstract only) - Elverhøi, Anders; Roaldset, Elen (Annals of Glaciology, 1981)
Samples of glaciomarine sediments and suspended particulate matter filtered from sea-water were collected in the Weddell Sea during the Norwegian Antarctic Research Expedition (NARE) in 1978–79. Analyses have provided information on the textural and mineralogical composition of shelf sediments, on the nature of biogenic and inorganic suspended particulate matter, and on the total sediment transport to the shelf areas and further into the deeper waters (). The shelf waters contain 0.1 to 1.2 g m–3 of suspended particulate matter, which is close to the range of 0.5 to 1.5 g m–3 reported for suspension concentrations in the oceans, but considerably lower than that found for some other glaciomarine environments such as the Bering Sea {up to 13-15 g m–3 ()) and off Kongsbreen, Spitsbergen {up to 500 g m–3 ()). Suspended particles from the Weddell Sea have maximum sizes of 50 to 70 µm and mean diameters in the range of 10 to 20 µm. In contrast, the bottom sediments on the outer shelf are deficient in the corresponding fractions. This reflects that when floating Antarctic ice supplies material to the Weddell Sea, the coarser fragments (>20-70 µm) are deposited, while the medium silt and finer fractions go into suspension. Considering the suspended-load data and the bottom-current measurements on the shelf break, it is evident that in January 1979 an average of 8.6 × 104tonnes d–1 (or 32 × 106 tonnes a–l) of particulate matter was transported by the current from the central Weddell Sea to the South Atlantic deep water. Morphological (scanning electron microscopy) and chemical analyses show the suspended material to be dominated by silica organisms (diatoms), and also to contain clastic grains of phyllosilicates, feldspar, quartz, zircon, in a few cases Al- and Fe-hydroxides/oxides also; authigenic “Fe-sepiolite” and secondary gypsum. Mineralogical analyses (X-ray diffraction) of the bottom sediments show the fine sand silt fractions to contain mainly clastic materials like illite, smectite-vermiculite, and quartz. Biogenic silica (cristobalite) and carbonate (Mg-calcite) as well as authigenic Fe-silicates (“Fe-sepiolite”) are also present.

Enzyme polymorphism in Antarctic krill (Euphausiacea); genetic variation between populations and species - Fevolden, Svein Erik; Ayala, Fransisco J. (Sarsia, 1981)
By means of enzyme electrophoretical assays three samples of Euphausia superba, all from the Atlantic sector of the Antarctic Ocean, were examined to see whether or not they represent genetically separated populations. The same samples were also compared with E. superba from off the Western coast of the Antarctic Peninsula, representing the Pacific sector. The latter animals have previously been studied by other authors. One sample of a second species of Antarctic krill, E. crystallorophias, was likewise examined. Thirty-five loci were studied in E. superba, and it is concluded that the three samples from the Atlantic sector most probably do not represent reproductively isolated populations. Their average heterozygosity, about 10%, is however greater than the value previously found for the ‘Pacific’ E. superba, 5.8 %. Calculations of the genetic identity and genetic distance between the Atlantic and ‘Pacific’ samples of E. superba suggest they represent separate populations. The average heterozygosity of E. crystallorophias was estimated to be between 9.1 and 9.4 %, from studies of 33 loci. The genetic distance between this species and E. superba was estimated at 0.989. The results are finally discussed in terms of postulated theories on genetic variability versus environmental heterogeneity.

Bacteriologigal characteristics of Antarctic krill (Crustacea, Euphausiacea) - Fevolden, Svein Erik; Eidså, Gudmunn (Sarsia, 1981)
The bacterial flora of two species of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba Dana and E. crystallorophias Holt & Tattersall, was studied with the aim of investigating the role played by bacteria during the claimed rapid deterioration of these animals. The number of bacteria on fresh krill was characterized as low, but started to increase exponentially after a few days of storage at low temperatures. Dominant species were of the genera Moraxella, Pseudomonas, and Alteromonas. Comparing the low initial number of bacteria with the high autolytic activity it is suggested that the rapid degradation of krill during the first days of storage is induced by autolysis and not by bacterial activity.

Hydrographic and current measurements in the southern Weddell Sea 1979/80 - Gammelsrød, Tor; Slotsvik, Noralf (Polarforschung, 1981)
During the 1979-1980 expediton with the icebreaker Polarsirkel we had an excellent opportunity to study the physical oceanography of the inner part of the Weddell Sea. The ship followed the ice shelf barrier from Cape Norwegia at about 15 °W, and due to favourable ice conditions, it was able to penetrate all the way to the Antarctic Peninsula (60 0W). In this preliminary report we give a review of the physical oceanography programme which mostly consists of hydrographic (CTD) stations near the barrier, and also sorne current and water level measurernents. The different water masses observed are described and the possibility for a tidal-drlvcn upwelling near the ice shelf barrier is indicated.

Cold tolerance of alpine, Arctic, and Antarctic Collembola and mites - Sømme, Lauritz (Cryobiology, 1981)
Because of their dominant role in the fauna of alpine, Arctic and Antarctic locations Collembola and mites are of particular interest regarding adaptations to low temperatures. No freezing-tolerant species have been found in these groups of terrestrial arthropods, and it appears that all species depend entirely on supercooling to survive the lower temperatures of their habitats. While summer animals have high supercooling points, an increase in supercooling ability occurs during autumn and early winter, and can be explained as a two-step process. Initially gut content has to be eliminated to avoid heterogeneous nucleation at high subzero temperatures due to foreign nucleating agents. Second, supercooling is further enhanced through accumulation of glycerol or other lowmolecular cryoprotective substances. Further studies are needed on the ability of such animals to avoid inoculative freezing in their microhabitats.

Krill off Bouvetøya and in the southern Weddell Sea with a description of larval stages of Euphausia crystallorophias - Fevolden, Svein Erik (Sarsia, 1980)
In the austral summer 1978/79 samples of krill were taken off Bouvetøya and in the southern Weddell Sea. Off Bouvetøya Euphausia superba Dana was the dominant species, but the population pattern indicates that the individuals found there were expatriates from other areas. For the first time larvae of E. superba were found in significant amounts in the southern Weddell Sea. Except from shallow water and the most southern position, they were equal in abundance to the larvae of E. crystallorophias Holt & Tattersall. Larval stages of the latter are described as is the successive spawning that takes place among the three species of krill found in the southern Weddell Sea.

Investigations on krill (Euphausiacea) sampled during the Norwegian Antarctic Research Expedition 1976–1977 - Fevolden, Svein Erik (Sarsia, 1979)
Krill was sampled in the Weddell Sea, farther south than ever before, and off Bouvet-öya. Five species were found: Euphausia superba, E. crystallorophias, E. frigida, E. triacantha, and Thysanoessa macrura. E. superba and E. crystallorophias were the most abundant species north and south of 74° S respectively. Length frequency analyses suggest that E. superba from the inner Weddell Sea takes three years to reach maturity. This population differed in several aspects from the populations farther north. E. crystallorophias and T. macrura were registered south to 77°45′ S, the southernmost localisation investigated. The material gives no clear evidence whether these species take one or two years to reach maturity. Their spawning activity seems to start earlier in the season than for E. superba. E. frigida and E. triacantha were only-found off Bouvetöya. Continuous echosounder recordings revealed that the total abundance of krill in the southern parts of the Weddell Sea was low, as was also the abundance on the route between the South Orkney Islands and Dronning Maud Land.

Melting of ice in sea water: a primitive model with application to the Antarctic ice shelf and icebergs - Gade, Herman G. (Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1979)
Steady-state conditions are assumed to exist everywhere in the case of melting of the underside of an infinite slab of ice floating in sea water. Basic transfer equations for heat and salt are established and solutions derived for the interior corresponding to given far field values of the temperature and salinity of the water. The solutions are discussed in the T-S diagram where the behavior is particularly simple. Determining parameters are the characteristic velocities ks/d and Ks/h, where ks and Ks are the molecular and turbulent diffusivities, respectively, of salt, d and h the thicknesses of the corresponding laminar and turbulent layers. Also the nonmelting/nonfreezing case is discussed and the determining parameter established. Application of the theory to the Ross Ice Shelf (Little America V) gives acceptable results with d = 2 × 10−3 m and Ks = 20 −30 × 10−4 m2 s−1. Analysis of the static stability of the melt water mixtures reveals that with ambient temperatures approaching 17°C, the stratification becomes unstable. Icebergs brought to tropical waters will cause melt water mixtures to intrude at subsurface levels. Finally, convection obtained in laboratory experiments with melting ice in sea water is reported to be in concordance with the theoretically derived stability criterion.

Mesozoic palaeomagnetism in Vestfjella, Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica - Løvlie, Reidar (Geophysical Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1979)
Thermal and alternating field demagnetization of oriented samples of Mesozoic lava flows (200–230 Myr) and dykes (154–172 Myr) collected from seven nunataks within the Vestfjella region, Dronning Maud Land, revealed stable directions of magnetization of normal and reverse polarity. Directional distributions of both polarities define tight groups along the same palaeomagnetic axis. Depending on whether the regional westward dip of the lava flows originated prior to, or after the intrusive igneous phase, two or one, respectively, palaeomagnetic pole(s) can be estimated. Both poles, however, are in general accord with previous Mesozoic poles from East Antarctica.

Fluoride in Antarctic Krill (Euphausia superba) and Atlantic Krill (Meganyctiphanes norvegica) - Soevik, Torleif; Braekkan, Olaf R. (Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada, 1979)
Samples of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) and Atlantic krill (Meganyctiphanes norvegica) were analysed for fluoride using a selective fluoride electrode method. Both species showed very high concentrations, a total of 1330–2400 mg F−/kg on fat free dry weight basis in raw samples whereas deep sea prawns (Pandalus borealis) showed a total of 18–91 and red feed (Calanus finmarchicus) 10–37 mg F−/kg. Sections of Antarctic krill were analyzed, and the highest concentration was found in the carapace, 4260 mg F−/kg fat free dry matter, compared with 570 and 750 mg F−/kg in raw and boiled muscle. Biological availability was measured in a chick assay, and showed fluoride in krill to be equally utilized as sodium fluoride added to the diet.

Stratigraphy and igneous petrology of Southern Heritage Range, Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica - Hjelle, Audun; Ohta, Yoshihide; Winsnes, Thore S (Results from Norwegian Antarctic Research 1974-1977, 1978)
Sedimentary and magmatic rocks of Late Proterozoic to Late Paleozoic age, from the southern half of Ellsworth Mountains are described. Basic volcanic rocks, mainly agglomeratic, occur abundantly in the lower part of the succession, in the Minaret Group, and in the lower part of the Heritage Group, but are not recorded in the upper part of the Heritage Group. Due to this lithostratigraphic contrast a new classification is proposed: the Heritage Group including the Middle Horseshoe Formation and the Edson Hills Formation. A stratigraphic gap is evident above the Edson Hills Formation and a separate unit--the Dunbar Ridge Formation--is proposed. This formation is of Middle-Upper Cambrian age, with trilobite-bearing limestones. The structure is governed by a major anticline with a NW plunge in the north but almost horizontal in the south. Contrast of fold intensity and fold style below the youngest exposed unit, the Whiteout Conglomerate and a weathered surface above the Crashite Quartzite suggests a late Paleozoic deformation phase. Two phases of magmatism are distinguished. The pre-Middle Cambrian magmatism is dominantly K-alkalic and suggests the beginning of block subsidence at the early stage of a rift tectonics on a continental crust. The presumptive Late Paleozoic magmatism is N-alkalic and tholeiitic, and occurred after the main deformation; however the rocks were regionally metamorphosed in the actinolite-greenschist facies probably in late Paleozoic time. This magmatism is considered to represent an advanced stage of block tectonics. (Auth. mod.)
