PLATO (PLATeau Observatory) is the third-generation astronomical site-testing laboratory designed by the University … of New South Wales. This facility is operating autonomously to collect both scientific and site-testing data from … Dome A, the highest point on the Antarctic plateau…
Over a decade of site testing in Antarctica has shown that both South Pole and Dome C are exceptional sites for … astronomy, with certain atmospheric conditions superior to those at existing mid-latitude sites. However, the highest … point on the Antarctic plateau, Dome A…
Pre-HEAT is a 20 cm aperture submillimeter-wave telescope with a 660 GHz (450 micron) Schottky diode heterodyne … receiver and digital FFT spectrometer for the Plateau Observatory (PLATO) developed by the University of New South … Wales. In January 2008 it was deployed to Dome A…
Assessments of nutrient-limitation in microalgae … using chl a fluorescence have revealed that nitrogen … and phosphorus depletion can be detected as a … change in chl a fluorescence signal when nutrientstarved … algae are resupplied with the limiting nutrient.
The distribution of euphausiid larvae along the coast of Terre Ade´lie, Antarctica, was assessed using … oblique tows of a double-framed bongo net at 38 stations during summer 2004. Larvae of Euphausia … crystallorophias and Thysanoessa macrura were observed. For E. crystallorophias larvae…
We study two intense Forbush decreases that occurred during two adjacent SOLTIP (Solar connection of Transient Interplanetary … Processes) intervals; namely SOLTIP 1 (22–27 March 1991) and SOLTIP 2 (1–17 June 1991)…
We have developed a method for determining interplanetary coronal mass ejection … (ICME) geometry from galactic cosmic ray data recorded by the ground-based muon … detector network. The cosmic ray density depression inside the ICME, which is associated … with a Forbush decrease…
This work contributes to the understanding of variation in methanesulphonic (MSA) concentration in an ice core … drilled during the 1996-97 Antarctic Campaign at the coastal plateau site of Talos Dome (East Antarctica)…
The temporal evolution of the subauroral polarization stream (SAPS) is investigated … using the Doppler velocity observations by the Unwin HF radar in conjunction with … the simultaneously observed auroral luminosity and plasma convection reversal regions. The event under study of 14 December 2004…
The Harang reversal is a prominent feature frequently observed in the electric and … magnetic field patterns in the high-latitude auroral zone and plays an important role … in substorm dynamics. A comprehensive set of instruments, including Super Dual Auroral … Radar Network (SuperDARN)…
The dual Tasman International Geospace Environment … Radar (TIGER) HF radars regularly observe E-region … echoes at sub-auroral magnetic latitudes 58–60 S including … during geomagnetic storms. We present a statistical analysis … of E-region backscatter observed in a period of 2 years …
We present a statistical analysis of short-range E region echoes observed by the Super … Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) HF radars in the evening sector (16–22 … MLT) over 3 years. Significant populations of the high-velocity (350–450 m/s)…
SuperDARN radars are sensitive to the collective … Doppler characteristics of decametre-scale irregularities in … the high latitude ionosphere. The radars routinely observe … a distinct transition from large spectral width (>100ms−1) located at higher latitudes to low spectral width…
