Abstract:
The work I create attempts to explore the vast precipice between adolescence and adulthood. Our whole lives we are essentially labeled one or the other yet we are often striving to be the one we are not. Childhood is fleeting, gone the moment we realize how truly special it is. Adulthood is elusive, ever looming yet continually out of reach. I choose to work with materials and imagery that is commonly known to us as children and attempt to make it a more "grown-up" version of itself. This allows for several layers of meaning. It can be a simple reminder of days past and an encouragement to not

Abstract:
Heart rate (f\(_H\)) and rate of oxygen ( V\(_{O2}\) consumption were recorded from adult macaroni penguins while exercising on a treadmill. No differences were found in the relationship between f\(_H\) and V\(_{O2}\) in breeding and moulting female penguins, but a significant difference was found between male and female penguins. These relationships were used to estimate field metabolic rate (FMR) for free-ranging female penguins, which were implanted with heart rate and temperature data loggers. While foraging to provision their chick, FMR was 8.92 ± 0.44 W kg\(^{-1}\) and 9.07 ± 0.42 W kg\(

Abstract:
Penguins are one of the largest consumers of marine resources in the Southern Ocean and spend most of their lives at sea. Although the last four decades have seen technological advancements that have considerably expanded our knowledge about their at-sea behaviour, there is still much to be learned. Given the rapid ongoing ecosystem changes in the Southern Ocean, it is vital to better understand, firstly, how penguins respond to environmental variability, and secondly, how such changes alter ecological relationships between sympatric species. Being flightless, travel is slower and more costly

It is widely recognised that both nutrient-driven processes acting from the “bottom-up” and predator-driven processes acting from the “top-down” are important drivers of population change. However, studies that examine how these joint forces influence the population dynamics of oceanic species are lacking. In the Antarctic and Sub-Antarctic ecosystem, human-mediated changes have driven biological change at both ends of the food chain; rapid regional warming at the bottom and heavy exploitation of apex predator populations at the top. Consequently, many populations of marine predators have rapi

Abstract:
Palaeobotanical research on oceanic islands has been largely ignored despite its importance to provide empirical proofs to disentangle insular plant diversity, evolution, ecology and biogeography. Here we use the oceanic archipelagos of Madeira and Azores as a ‘testing ground’, via fieldwork, laboratorial and collection-based research, to demonstrate the existence of well-preserved and palaeobiological informative plant fossils. In Madeira Island, mid-19th century collections from São Jorge leaf bed were stratigraphically and taxonomically reappraised revealing the presence of the stink-laurel

Abstract:
Andryala (Asteraceae: Cichorieae) is a little-known Mediterranean-Macaronesian genus whose taxonomy is much in need of revision. The aim of the present biosystematic study was to elucidate species relationships within this genus based on morphological and molecular data. In this study several taxa are recognised: 17 species, 14 subspecies, and 3 hybrids. Among these, 5 species are Macaronesian endemics (A. glandulosa, A. sparsiflora, A. crithmifolia Aiton, A. pinnatifida, and A. perezii), 4 species are Northwest African endemics (A. mogadorensis, A. maroccana, A. chevallieri, and A. nigricans)
