Constraints on transport and weathering of petroleum contamination at Casey Station, Antarctica Cold Regions Science and Technology, 2007 (Ref: 12931)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

There is a common perception that terrestrial fuel spills in Antarctica are long lived and that plumes naturally degrade very … slowly. However…

Petroleum hydrocarbons ten years after spillage at a helipad in Bunger Hills, East Antarctica. Antarctic Science, 1999 (Ref: 8897)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Surface and subsurface sediments from a helipad in Bunger Hills were collected ten years after accidental contamination with a small quantity (probably less than 10 litres) of petroleum products.

Unsaturated diether lipids in the psychrotrophic archaeon Halorubrum lacusprofundi. Systematic and Applied Microbiology, 2005 (Ref: 11827)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The major phospholipids of Halorubrum lacusprofundi grown at 25 1C were archaeol phosphatidylglycerol, archaeol … phosphatidylglycerylsulphate and archaeol phosphatidylglycerylphosphate methyl ester.Glycolipids included a monoglycosyl archaeol and the sulphate ester of a diglycosyl archaeol.

A field trial of in situ chemical oxidation to remediate long-term diesel contaminated Antarctic soil Cold Regions Science and Technology, 2004 (Ref: 11824)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

In situ chemical oxidation (ICO) has been identified as a potential technology for the remediation of petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated sites in Antarctica.

Interannual variability in total ozone from a mid-latitude Southern Hemisphere site - the Melbourne Dobson record 1978-2012. Quadrennial Ozone Symposium 2012, Toronto, Canada, 27-31 August, 2012 (Ref: 14796)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

The Southern Hemisphere (SH) is relatively data sparse in terms of ozone monitoring, particularly in the mid-latitudes where there are few long term records. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology possesses continuous datasets from the Australian region dating back to the 1950s (Dobson) or 1960s…

Sensitivity of sea ice formation and dense shelf water production to perturbations of … air temperature, precipitation, and wind stress in an important Antarctic coastal polynya … system is investigated.

Interdecadal water mass changes in the Southern Ocean between 30°E and 160°E Geophysical Research Letters, 2005 (Ref: 13293)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Interdecadal water mass changes in the Indian -Western … Pacific sectors of the Southern Ocean were investigated … using the Japanese Antarctic Research Expeditions and … historical hydrographic observations from the 1950s to … 1990s.

Comparisons between surface, barotropic and abyssal flows during the passage of a warm-core ring Aust. J. Mar. Freshwater Res, 1988 (Ref: 13175)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A comparison is made of results for barotropic, surface and abyssal flows during the formation and … passage of a warm-core ring in the East Australian Current. The barotropic velocities are estimated from … sea-floor measurements of the horizontal electric field, which is induced by water motion.
