Figures & data
Fig. 1 The ratio, expressed as percentages, between the total number of articles concerning ecology in Antarctica (international) and the number with at least partial Latin American authorship (LA).
Table 1 Antarctic ecological articles with authors with Latin American affiliations, sorted by country, and the percentage of the total for each country. Articles comprise ISI-indexed articles published between 1911 and 2010.
Fig. 2 Articles with Latin American authorship concerning ecology in Antarctica, broken down by environment, country and time period. See for the list of countries grouped under “Others.” As some articles concerned include species that inhabit both marine and terrestrial environments, or more than one country was involved in the article, these categories are not mutually exclusive.
Fig. 3 Cumulative frequency of articles concerning ecology in Antarctica with Latin American authorship between the years 1985 and 2010, according to the taxonomic Kingdom to which the study species belong. As some articles concern species belonging to different taxonomic groups, these categories are not mutually exclusive.
Fig. 4 Cumulative frequency of articles concerning ecology in Antarctica with Latin American authorship between the years 1985 and 2010, according to the level of biological organization which the study examined.
Fig. 5 Cumulative frequency of articles concerning ecology in Antarctica by authors with affiliations in the three Latin American countries (Argentina, Chile and Brazil) with the greatest amount of articles published on the subject between the years 1985 and 2010.
