. PloS one, 6(1), e15919.
Abstract: The Antarctic krill Euphausia superba is a keystone species in the Antarctic food chain. Not only is it a significant grazer of phytoplankton, but it is also a major food item for charismatic megafauna such as whales and seals and an important Southern Ocean fisheries crop. Ecological data suggest that this species is being affected by climate change and this will have considerable consequences for the balance of the Southern Ocean ecosystem. Hence, understanding how this organism functions is a priority area and will provide fundamental data for life history studies, energy budget calculations and food web models.

. (2010). Hormonal correlates of individual quality in a long-lived bird: a test of the 'corticosterone-fitness hypothesis'.
. Biology letters, 6(6), 846–9.
Abstract: Measuring individual quality in vertebrates is difficult. Focusing on allostasis mechanisms may be useful because they are functionally involved in the ability of an individual to survive and reproduce in its environment. Thus, a rise in stress hormones levels (corticosterone) occurs when an organism has to cope with challenging environmental conditions. This has recently led to the proposal of the 'cort-fitness hypothesis', which suggests that elevated baseline corticosterone levels should be found in individuals of poor quality that have difficulty coping with their environment. We tested this hypothesis by comparing an integrative measure of individual quality to baseline corticosterone in black-browed albatrosses (Thalassarche melanophrys). We found that individual baseline corticosterone levels were related to individual quality and highly repeatable from one breeding season to the next. Importantly, this relationship was found in males, but not in females. Therefore, we suggest that the relationship between quality and baseline corticosterone levels may depend on the environmental and energetic constraints that individuals have to cope with.

Butler Rhett, Tsuboi Seiji, . (2010). Antipodal seismic observations of temporal and global variation at Earth's inner-outer core boundary
. Geophysical Research Letters, 37(11), L11301–.
Abstract: We have found two pairs of earthquake doublets closely located antipodally on one diametral axis between Tonga-Algeria, and several other events on other axes. These doublets show significant correlation, and exhibit seismic phases traversing the Core that cannot be explained by a standard radial Earth model such as PREM. The antipodal waveform data are highly variable between axes. The observed variability of the waveforms indicates global variations in the structure above and below the Inner-Outer Core boundary region. We have found evidence for a regional low-velocity zone at the base of the Outer Core, corresponding with a decadal temporal variation (0.55 s) in seismic energy traversing the top of the Inner Core. We propose an antipodal seismic array to constrain and to provide further progress for the study of the Inner and Outer Core.
