Social roles and the evolution of networks in extreme and isolated environments
- Journal of Mathematical Sociology
, 2003
"... This article reports on the evolution of network structure as it relates to formal and informal social roles in well-bounded, isolated groups. Research was conducted at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station. Data was collected on crewmembers ’ networks of social interaction over each of three winter ..."

winter-over periods, when the station is completely isolated. In addition, data was collected on the informal roles played by crewmembers (e.g., instrumental leadership, expressive leadership). The study found that globally coherent networks in winter-over groups were associated with group consensus

. Anthropogenic sources of black carbon, although distributed globally, are most concentrated in the tropics where solar irradiance is highest. Black carbon is often transported over long distances, mixing with other aerosols along the way. The aerosol mix can form transcontinental plumes of atmospheric brown
BODY WEIGHT CHARACTERISTICS OF FARM-RAISED FALLOW DEER (DAMA DAMA L.) OVER THE WINTER PERIOD
"... The aim of this study was to determine the body weight characteristics of fallow deer fawns and does over the period from weaning to the time the animals are put out to pasture, as well as to analyze seasonal variations in their body weights during the winter months. Before the winter the average bo ..."

Impact of climate change on agriculture during winter season over Pakistan
, 2012
"... This study has been carried out to investigate the impact of climate change over Pakistan and its surrounding areas (60 ˚- 80 ˚ E and 20 ˚- 40 ˚ N) during winter seasons (December-February). Variability in three meteorological parameters such as: rainfall; air temperature; and moisture transport, ha ..."

E!ect of winter wind variability on plankton transport over Georges Bank
, 2001
"... Abstract A detailed physical model of Georges Bank, including M tidal recti"cation, realistic topography, Mellor-Yamada 2.5 mixed-layer dynamics, and time-varying wind forcing, was used to simulate plankton transport. Wind records from January 1 through March 4 of each year from 1968 through 1 ..."

-averages of the same winds. Interannual di!erences were signi"cant; depending on the direction of the mean wind stress, tracers were transported to several di!erent regions on and o! the bank. The use of wind-stress averages over a 2-month period is supported for models addressing transport on that time scale
Pacific interdecadal climate variability: Linkages between the Tropics and the North Pacific during boreal winter since 1900
- J. CLIM

The La Nina Episode and the Heavy Winter Rainfall of 1999 over Peninsular
"... Prolonged events of heavy rainfall which commenced in September 1999 and continued until January 2000 during the northeast monsoon over the Malaysian Peninsula showed that the enhanced rainfall conditions were related to the larger scale La Nina phenomenon. This was substantiated by large-scale obse ..."

The recent Arctic warm period
, 2007
"... Arctic winter, spring and autumn surface air temperature (SAT) anomalies and associated sea level pressure (SLP) fields have decidedly different spatial patterns at the beginning of the 21st century (2000–2007) compared to most of the 20th century; we suggest calling this recent interval the Arctic ..."

, as in 1989–1995 and 1977–1987. In contrast, SAT in winter (DJF) and spring (MAM) for 2000–2007 show an Arctic-wide SAT anomaly of greater than +1.0◦C and regional hot spots over the central Arctic of greater than +3.0◦C. Unlike the AO and PNA∗, anomalous geostrophic winds for 2000–2007 often tended to blow
Quantifying the threshold frost hardiness for over-wintering survival of wheat in Iran, using simulation.

Abstract The value of frost tolerance in wheat is increased with decreasing the temperature in late autumn and/or early winter (phase I, acclimation), then shows plateau state for a period with the coldest temperature (II), finally appears to decrease with warming the temperature (III, de-acclimati ..."
