Our research published today suggests climate change will cause the ocean habitat supporting krill growth to move south. The habitat will also deteriorate in summer and autumn. The ramifications ...

For the first time, Antarctic krill have been found on seafloor vents. One scientist is working to figure out what they are ...

But between here and the krill habitat is this incredibly stormy ocean. It is the stormiest patch of water in the world. Every time we go south, we have to go through this really bumpy bit of ...

The study looked at how krill growth habitat is likely to be affected by changes to ocean temperatures and the concentration of the species' preferred food, phytoplankton. Ocean warming is likely ...

While warmer ocean temperatures help the krill hatch faster, declines in sea ice area, delayed sea ice formation, and a drop in phytoplankton populations meant that overall, the habitat suitable ...

Huckstadt and his coauthors used these data, together with oceanographic circulation models, to build a high-resolution, 3-dimensional model of current crabeater seal foraging habitat and, by ...

“That's going to have a big impact on where [krill] habitat is and how close they're able to get to land,” says Hellessey. Climate change is also driving penguins to colonize new ...

More than 50 years after the bipartisan U.S. Endangered Species Act was passed unanimously in the Senate and 355-4 in the ...

The last survey of this kind across Antarctica as a whole found a population drop of 9.5 percent in the decade leading up to ...

But rising ocean temperatures are causing the krill’s habitat to shrink, forcing populations to contract towards the South Pole. This means it is more important than ever to understand these animals ...
