Marine Ecosystem Assessment for the Southern Ocean: Birds and Marine Mammals in a Changing Climate (2020, background): “Despite much of Antarctica still being considered pristine (Tow and Cowan, 2005; Convey, 2011; Grimaldi et al., 2015), there has been vastly increased human activity in the last two centuries (Frenot et al., 2005; Kerry and Riddle, 2009) including recent exponential increases in Antarctic tourism…”
The terrestrial and freshwater invertebrate biodiversity of the archipelagoes of the Barents Sea; Svalbard, Franz Josef Land and Novaya Zemlya (2014, background): “…to relaxation of the constraints provided by either or both of these variables, the invertebrate biota are likely to benefit, with expectation of increased production, biomass, population size, community complexity, and colonisation (Convey, 2011; Nielsen et al., 2011; Nielsen and Wall, 2013).”
The spatial structure of Antarctic biodiversity (2014, background): “Such investment is arguably sufficient to generate a significant selection pressure, suggesting that spatial variation in exposure will be mirrored in biological responses that affect organism energy budgets and life history trade-offs (Convey 2011).”
