Penguin populations were the highest during ca. 1490 to 1670 AD, a cold period, which is contrary to previous results in other regions much farther north. Different responses to climate change may occur at low latitudes and high latitudes in the Antarctic, even if for same speciesQi-H...
The Little Penguin's Big Adventure / 小企鹅的大冒险 In the icy waters of the Antarctic, there lived a little penguin named Pip. Pip was the smallest penguin in his colony, but he had the biggest dreams. While the other penguins spent their days fishing and sliding on the ice, Pip ...
Penguins (企鹅) live together, but each pair has a little piece of ground of their own. When a penguin wants to walk through its neighbour's ground, it must ask permission (允许). If it does not, it will have to fight. Penguins come and go all day. They fight fish and look after...

In 2001 and 2003 small-scale acoustic surveys of Antarctic krill ( Euphausia superba) distribution and abundance were conducted offshore from...
aMost species of Antarctic penguin are abundant and not seriously threatened by man's activities. However rockhopper and macaroni penguin populations have decreased substantially in recent years though without obvious cause. In addition there remain concerns that Southern Ocean krill fisheries could compete...

Antarctic, and integrative, long-term studies of the impacts of environmental changes on the foraging ecology and fitness proxies of arctic seabirds are rare (e.g.8,15,17,19). Those are however needed to fully apprehend the incidence of ecosystem modifications on these vulnerable species....
Which is an odd defence for an institution which has always exalted itself as the bearer of Eternal Truth. The whole point of Christianity is that God’s laws donotchange: they are perpetual, apart from ephemeral community standards. There is no moral relativism. There is Good and there is...
Hundreds of thousands ofbudgerigars, or budgies, gather around a remote central Australian watering hole. While Americans recognize the bird as a household parakeet, budgies are native to Australia and easily the most popular bird there. The nomadic species often dwells among small flocks but can...
