Collaborative research has shown that diesel fuels used at Australian and Argentine Antarctic stations are chemically distinct. Such findings can assist with understanding the relative risks associated with fuel spills, the identification of specific compounds for monitoring…
There is growing evidence that the Antarctic is increasingly exposed to chemical stressors. Antarctica is impacted by global issues such as climate change and long-range transport of chemicals. Furthermore, expanding tourism and research activities…
Fuel spills are a major source of contamination in terrestrial environments in Antarctica. Little is known of the effects of hydrocarbon contaminants in fuels on Antarctic terrestrial biota, and how these change as fuel ages within soil.
