Many animals rely on acclimation to enhance their stress tolerance to face unfavorable conditions. Some animals can also rely on their phenotypic plasticity to respond to these unfavorable conditions without the need to slowly experience increasing levels of stress to enhance their stress tolerance (i.e., acclimate). \r\n\u003cbr/\u003eBelgica antarctica can rely on both types of strategies, but since they evolved to live in a habitat with such dramatic environmental changes as Antarctica, they are very sensitive to any type of stress (e.g., a sudden drop in temperature, or a bout of high-speed wind). Studying the extent to which B. antarctica rely on each of these strategies to survive and how environmental variation can shape this species\u2019 biology across distinct populations (i.e., that might experience distinct selective pressures) is important to help us better understand how polyextremophiles adapt and evolve while inhabiting extreme environments. This project focused on studying stress tolerance in B. antarctica populations of three distinct islands, Torgersen, Cormorant, and Outcast. In addition, we investigated how these responses to stress change between early- and late-summer (i.e., between larvae that recently finished overwintering - here referred as summer larvae, and larvae that are preparing to overwinter - here referred as winter larvae).", "east": -63.964, "geometry": ["POINT(-64.0155 -64.78)"], "keywords": "Antarctica; Belgica Antarctica; Cryosphere; Population Genetics", "locations": "Antarctica", "north": -64.766, "nsf_funding_programs": "Antarctic Organisms and Ecosystems", "persons": "Sousa Lima, Cleverson; Michel, Andrew; Hayward, Scott; Teets, Nicholas", "project_titles": "NSFGEO-NERC: Mechanisms of Adaptation to Terrestrial Antarctica through Comparative Physiology and Genomics of Antarctic and sub-Antarctic Insects", "projects": [{"proj_uid": "p0010203", "repository": "USAP-DC", "title": "NSFGEO-NERC: Mechanisms of Adaptation to Terrestrial Antarctica through Comparative Physiology and Genomics of Antarctic and sub-Antarctic Insects"}], "repo": "USAP-DC", "repositories": "USAP-DC", "science_programs": null, "south": -64.794, "title": "Temporal and spatial variation in stress tolerance in Belgica antarctica populations from distinct islands", "uid": "601873", "west": -64.067}, {"awards": "1850988 Teets, Nicholas", "bounds_geometry": ["POLYGON((-64.067 -64.766,-64.05669999999999 -64.766,-64.04639999999999 -64.766,-64.03609999999999 -64.766,-64.02579999999999 -64.766,-64.0155 -64.766,-64.0052 -64.766,-63.994899999999994 -64.766,-63.9846 -64.766,-63.9743 -64.766,-63.964 -64.766,-63.964 -64.7688,-63.964 -64.7716,-63.964 -64.7744,-63.964 -64.77720000000001,-63.964 -64.78,-63.964 -64.7828,-63.964 -64.7856,-63.964 -64.7884,-63.964 -64.7912,-63.964 -64.794,-63.9743 -64.794,-63.9846 -64.794,-63.994899999999994 -64.794,-64.0052 -64.794,-64.0155 -64.794,-64.02579999999999 -64.794,-64.03609999999999 -64.794,-64.04639999999999 -64.794,-64.05669999999999 -64.794,-64.067 -64.794,-64.067 -64.7912,-64.067 -64.7884,-64.067 -64.7856,-64.067 -64.7828,-64.067 -64.78,-64.067 -64.77720000000001,-64.067 -64.7744,-64.067 -64.7716,-64.067 -64.7688,-64.067 -64.766))"], "date_created": "Wed, 12 Mar 2025 00:00:00 GMT", "description": "Insects are known for occurring in any biome due to their outstanding phenotypic plasticity, reproductive ability, and environmental resilience, but only a few species can survive Antarctica\u2019s environmental conditions.

Differences among individuals within a population are ubiquitous. Those differences are known to affect the entire life cycle with important consequences for all demographic rates and outcomes. One source of among-individual phenotypic variation that has received little attention from a demographic perspective is animal personality, which is defined as consistent and heritable behavioral differences between individuals. While many studies have shown that individual variation in individual personality can generate individual differences in survival and reproductive rates, the impact of personality on all demographic rates and outcomes remains to be assessed empirically.\r\n\r\n\t2. Here, we used a unique, long-term, dataset coupling demography and personality of wandering albatross (Diomedea exulans) in the Crozet Archipelago and a comprehensive analysis based on a suite of approaches (capture-mark-recapture statistical models, Markov chains models and structured matrix population models). We assessed the effect of boldness on annual demographic rates (survival, breeding probability, breeding success), life-history out-comes (life expectancy, lifetime reproductive outcome, occupancy times), and an integrative demographic outcome (population growth rate).\r\n\r\n\t3. We found that boldness had little impact on female demographic rates, but was very likely associated with lower breeding probabilities in males. By integrating the effects of boldness over the entire life cycle, we found that bolder males had slightly lower lifetime reproductive success compared to shyer males. Indeed, bolder males spent a greater proportion of their lifetime as non-breeders, which suggests longer inter-breeding intervals due to higher reproductive allocation.\r\n\r\n\t4. Our results reveal that the link between boldness and demography is more complex than anticipated by the pace-of-life literature and highlight the importance of considering the entire life cycle with a comprehensive approach when assessing the role of personality on individual performance and demography.\r\n", "east": 180.0, "geometry": ["POINT(0 -89.999)"], "keywords": "Antarctica; Cryosphere; Demography; Sub-Antarctic", "locations": "Sub-Antarctic; Antarctica", "north": -60.0, "nsf_funding_programs": "Antarctic Integrated System Science", "persons": "Joanie, Van de Walle; Jenouvrier, Stephanie", "project_titles": "NSFGEO-NERC: Integrating Individual Personality Differences in the Evolutionary Ecology of a Seabird in the Rapidly Changing Polar Environment", "projects": [{"proj_uid": "p0010283", "repository": "USAP-DC", "title": "NSFGEO-NERC: Integrating Individual Personality Differences in the Evolutionary Ecology of a Seabird in the Rapidly Changing Polar Environment"}], "repo": "USAP-DC", "repositories": "USAP-DC", "science_programs": null, "south": -90.0, "title": "The impact of boldness on demographic rates and lifehistory outcomes in the wandering albatross", "uid": "601770", "west": -180.0}, {"awards": "1543383 Postlethwait, John; 1947040 Postlethwait, John; 2232891 Postlethwait, John", "bounds_geometry": ["POLYGON((-180 -37,-144 -37,-108 -37,-72 -37,-36 -37,0 -37,36 -37,72 -37,108 -37,144 -37,180 -37,180 -42.3,180 -47.6,180 -52.9,180 -58.2,180 -63.5,180 -68.8,180 -74.1,180 -79.4,180 -84.69999999999999,180 -90,144 -90,108 -90,72 -90,36 -90,0 -90,-36 -90,-72 -90,-108 -90,-144 -90,-180 -90,-180 -84.7,-180 -79.4,-180 -74.1,-180 -68.8,-180 -63.5,-180 -58.2,-180 -52.9,-180 -47.6,-180 -42.300000000000004,-180 -37))"], "date_created": "Fri, 08 Sep 2023 00:00:00 GMT", "description": "Phylogenetic tree of Notothenioid species used in analyses and results of the HyPhy RELAX tests for pervasive changes in strength of natural selection on hemoglobin genes in the research article \u201cCold-driven hemoglobin evolution in Antarctic notothenioid fishes prior to hemoglobin gene loss in white-blooded icefishes\u201d by Thomas Desvignes, Iliana Bista, Karina Herrera, Audrey Landes, John H.

Impacts on upper trophic levels are evident, though there have been few, if any studies that have considered the impacts on bacterioplankton in the Southern Ocean. This proposal will characterize the winter bacterioplankton genome, transcriptome, and proteome and discover those features (community composition, genes up-regulated, and proteins expressed) that are essential to winter bacterioplankton survival and livelihood. We have assembled a polar ocean ecology and genomics network including strategic partnerships with Palmer LTER, the British Antarctic Survey\u0027s ocean metagenome program, US and Canadian scientists studying the Arctic Ocean genome, an Australian colleague who specialized in archaeal proteomics, and French colleagues studying Sub-Antarctic and Coastal Adelie Land marine bacterioplankton. The primary objectives of this program are: 1 Describe the differences in diversity and genomic content between austral winter and summer bacterioplankton communities. 2. Investigate the winter-time bacterioplankton growth and cellular signals (mRNA and proteins expressed) in order to understand the specific adaptations key to survival. Our results will extend from the Antarctic to the Arctic - as the cold, dark, carbon-limited deep seas linking these two systems have many common features. Education and outreach activities target (i) undergraduate and graduate students, hopefully including minority students recruited through the Diversity in Research in Environmental and Marine Sciences (DREAMS) Program at VIMS; (ii) a broad audience with our education and outreach partnerships with The Cousteau Society and with the Census for Antarctic Marine Life program.

The polar regions and their faunas are commanding increased attention as declining species diversity, environmental change, commercial fisheries, and resource management are now being viewed in a global context. Commercial fishing is known to have a direct and pervasive effect on marine biodiversity, and occurs in the Southern Ocean as far south as the Ross Sea. The nature of fish biodiversity in the Antarctic is different than in all other ocean shelf areas. Waters of the Antarctic continental shelf are ice covered for most of the year and water temperatures are nearly constant at -1.5 C. In these waters components of the phyletically derived Antarctic clade of Notothenioids dominate fish diversity. In some regions, including the southwestern Ross Sea, Notothenioids are overwhelmingly dominant in terms of number of species, abundance, and biomass. Such dominance by a single taxonomic group is unique among shelf faunas of the world. In the absence of competition from a taxonomically diverse fauna, Notothenioids underwent a habitat or depth related diversification keyed to the utilization of unfilled niches in the water column, especially pelagic or partially pelagic zooplanktivory and piscivory. This has been accomplished in the absence of a swim bladder for buoyancy control. They also may form a special type of adaptive radiation known as a species flock, which is an assemblage of a disproportionately high number of related species that have evolved rapidly within a defined area where most species are endemic. Diversification in buoyancy is the hallmark of the notothenioid radiation. Buoyancy is the feature of notothenioid biology that determines whether a species lives on the substrate, in the water column or both. Buoyancy also influences other key aspects of life history including swimming, feeding and reproduction and thus has implications for the role of the species in the ecosystem. With similarities to classic evolutionary hot spots, the Antarctic shelf and its Notothenioid radiation merit further exploration. The 2004 \u0027International Collaborative Expedition to collect and study Fish Indigenous to Sub-Antarctic Habitats,\u0027 or, \u0027ICEFISH,\u0027 provided a platform for collection of notothenioid fishes from sub-Antarctic waters between South America and Africa, which will be examined in this project. This study will determine buoyancy for samples of all notothenioid species captured during the ICEFISH cruise. This essential aspect of the biology is known for only 19% of the notothenioid fauna. Also, the gross and microscopic anatomy of brains and sense organs of the phyletically basal families Bovichtidae, Eleginopidae, and of the non-Antarctic species of the primarily Antarctic family Nototheniidae will be examined. The fish biodiversity and endemicity in poorly known localities along the ICEFISH cruise track, seamounts and deep trenches will be quantified. Broader impacts include improved information for comprehending and conserving biodiversity, a scientific and societal priority.", "east": 180.0, "geometry": ["POINT(0 -89.999)"], "keywords": "Biota; NBP0404; Oceans; R/v Nathaniel B.
