Although many Quaternary records have allowed the study of major glacial-interglacial change in the … Southern Ocean, Holocene records from deep-sea cores are few and far between and are currently … limited to the South Atlantic. Low sedimentation rates combined with deep seafloors…
Numerous fuel spills associated with human activities in Antarctica have occurred and significant levels of petroleum hydrocarbon contamination have been reported near Antarctic stations.
Special Antarctic Blend (SAB) is a light end diesel fuel, comprised mainly of petroleum hydrocarbons (alkanes nC9-C14, trace levels of nC15-23). It is used as the main source for power generation at Australia’s Research Stations in Antarctica and the subantarctic, including Macquarie Island.
A method for combining a proportional-hazards survival time model with a bioassay model where the log-hazard function is modelled as a linear function of log-concentration combined with a cubic smoothing spline function of time is described.
Chemical contamination resulting from human activities has been identified in … nearshore marine environments in the vicinity of Antarctic Research Stations. To better … manage and remediate contaminated sites, and to assess the risks of ongoing activities…
