Record #210164:

Shackleton's emperor penguins / Bernard Stonehouse.

Title: Shackleton's emperor penguins / Bernard Stonehouse.
Author(s): Stonehouse, Bernard.
Date: 2014.
In: Polar Record. (2014.), Vol. 50(253) (2014)
Abstract: Discusses identity of emperor penguin colony on east coast of Stancomb-Wills Ice Stream on Caird Coast, Weddell Sea, first reported by Frank Worsley in January 1915 during Shackleton's 1914-17 Endurance Antarctic expedition. Examines reasons for emperor penguins favouring locations of particular glaciological disturbance, and suggests that where ice shelves are disturbed by ice streams, subglacial freshwater streams provide local enrichment of nutrients to prey.
