Come tell us about your cool new evolutionary work on Antartic (and/or sub-Antarctic) fishes! It doesn't have to be notothenioids, we love all the fishes (and Evolution)!!

They were meant to get to Halley today, but weather on the rest of their route is causing delays. Not a bad view to wait with though, eh?

Ocean warming threatens the viability of 60% of Antarctic ice shelves - Nature
The viability of Antarctic ice shelves under low rates and high rates of global warming is modelled to estimate when it will become unfeasible for the ice shelves to maintain their present-day shape.
