    Abstract

    The core effort of Oceanites and its Antarctic Site Inventory project is discerning how Antarctic species are changing in distribution and abundance, and more importantly, identifying factors driving long-term changes in the western Antarctic Peninsula ecosystem.  This paper provides background information on the history of Oceanites and the Antarctic Site Inventory, links to key scientific papers and other publications, results from the most recently concluded 2015-16 field season, plans for the forthcoming 2016-17 field season, and data analyses currently underway.
