Could Scott have survived with today's physiological knowledge?
In 1911, members of a British expedition walked across the Antarctic to the South Pole, but in the punishingly hostile environment, retracing their steps back to the edge of the continent proved fatal. Over the last 100 years, knowledge about human physiology has greatly increased and, on the centenary of this most extreme of all journeys, this essay explores the true extent of the physiologica...
متن کاملCould brown bears (Ursus arctos) have survived in Ireland during the Last Glacial Maximum?
Brown bears are recorded from Ireland during both the Late Pleistocene and early-mid Holocene. Although most of the Irish landmass was covered by an ice sheet during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), Irish brown bears are known to have hybridized with polar bears during the Late Pleistocene, and it is suggested that the Irish brown bear population did not become extinct but instead persisted in s...
متن کاملJones Mountains, Antarctica: Evidence for Tertiary glaciation revisited
The Jones Mountains (lat. 73°30’ S, long. 94° W) were discovered in January, 1960. In November of the same year, a University of Minnesota party led by Cam Craddock initiated studies of the geology of this previously unknown small group of mountains. The rocks exposed in this east-west trending group consist of a Mesozoic basement complex of granites in fault contact with younger felsic rocks. ...
متن کاملNorthern Hemisphere Glaciation during the Globally Warm Early Late Pliocene
The early Late Pliocene (3.6 to ∼3.0 million years ago) is the last extended interval in Earth's history when atmospheric CO2 concentrations were comparable to today's and global climate was warmer. Yet a severe global glaciation during marine isotope stage (MIS) M2 interrupted this phase of global warmth ∼3.30 million years ago, and is seen as a premature attempt of the climate system to estab...
