Lithodid crabs (and other skeleton-crushing predators) may have been excluded from cold Antarctic continental shelf waters for more than 14 Myr. The west Antarctic Peninsula shelf is warming rapidly and has been hypothesized to be soon invaded by lithodids. A remotely operated vehicle survey in Palmer Deep, a basin 120 km onto the Antarctic shelf, revealed a large, reproductive population of li...

In the complexity of modern, computerised systems, the current system state can come as an unpleasant shock to even an experienced user. The dominant thinking in this field [Palmer, 1995, Palmer et al, 1993, Degani et al, 1996, Rushby 1999] suggests that much of this "automation surprise" [Palmer 1995] comes as a result of mode error. In this paper, we will show that this is a fundamental miscl...

Recovery from the pandemic will be as challenging itself, argue Christina Pagel and Edward Palmer

The Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) has been used for more than 30 years to quantify the long-term drought conditions for a given location and time. However, a common critique of the PDSI is that the behavior of the index at various locations is inconsistent, making spatial comparisons of PDSI values difficult, if not meaningless. A self-calibrating Palmer Drought Severity Index (SC-PDSI) ...
