• The Disappearing Cryosphere: Impacts and Ecosystem Responses to Rapid Cryosphere Loss (2012, background): “One of the best-studied examples of the response of predator populations to sea-ice loss is the Adelie penguin, a true Antarctic penguin with strong fidelity to sea ice as a platform for foraging activity (Ducklow et al. 2007).”
• Long-term (1993-2013) changes in macrozooplankton off the Western Antarctic Peninsula (2015, background): “…western side of the Antarctic Peninsula, and extends from Palmer Station on Anvers Island (64.771S, 64.051W) in the north to approximately 700 km south near Charcot Island (69.451S, 75.151W), and from coastal to slope waters approximately 200 km offshore (Ducklow et al., 2007, 2012a, 2012b) (Fig.”

• Effects of climate change and fisheries bycatch on Southern Ocean seabirds : a review (2012, positive): “In particular, decreased sea-ice extent and duration altered the phytoplankton and zooplankton communities and had negative effects on krill recruitment and on top predator populations such as Adélie and chinstrap penguins (Ducklow et al. 2007, Hinke et al. 2007, and references in Appendix 1).”
• Time series of vertical flux of zooplankton fecal pellets on the continental shelf of the western Antarctic Peninsula (2012, background): “As a result, the marine ecosystem in the WAP has been undergoing rapid physical climate change in the past few decades from a cold-dry, polar-type climate to a warm-humid, sub-Antarctic-type climate (Ducklow et al, 2007; Ducklow et al., in press).”
• Seaweeds and Their Communities in Polar Regions (2012, background): “With respect to the nutrients, levels of nitrate and phosphate are high throughout the year in the Southern Ocean (Drew and Hastings 1992; Ducklow et al. 2007), while there is a strong seasonal variation of these levels in the Arctic.”
• Krill, climate, and contrasting future scenarios for Arctic and Antarctic fisheries (2014, background): “…classical view of the Southern Ocean foodweb also has a small number of trophic levels and a large number of apex predators (Cleveland, 2009; Figure 4), but the importance of alternative and longer routes of energy flow has been increasingly recognized (Ducklow et al., 2007; Murphy et al., 2007a).”
