TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to establish a testable estimate of blue carbon change caused by glacier retreat along Antarctic fjords and thus to establish its relative importance compared to polar and other carbon sinks.

First sighting of a live hourglass dolphin (Lagenorhynchus cruciger) in inland waters of southern Chile
TL;DR: Although the animal sighted is more likely a vagrant than a migrant to inland waters of southern Chile, it is even more uncertain what biological and/or physical properties were determinants in the movements of hourglass dolphin.

Births of leopard seals Hydrurga leptonyx in southern Chile
Jorge Acevedo,Alejandro González,Sarah Garthe,Inti Gonzalez,Rodrigo Gomez,Anelio Aguayo-Lobo +5 more
TL;DR: Although the pups reported here were dead, these observations are important because they add new evidence that leopard seals pup asynchronously, unlike other ice-breeding seals, and provides further information regarding the leopard seal use of South American waters.

Sclerochronology in the Southern Ocean
TL;DR: Some of the long-lived species considered in this review have the potential to provide the much-needed high-resolution eco-environmental proxy data and play an important role in blue carbon storage in the Sothern Ocean.
