The Antarctic-Arctic Radiation-belt (Dynamic) Deposition-VLF Atmospheric Research Konsortium … (AARDDVARK) provides a network of continuous long-range observations of the lower ionosphere in the … polar regions.
Techniques are presented for generating thermal infrared and … visible composite images from cloud-free portions of MODIS … (MODerate resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) images … closely spaced in time, with a focus on studies of landfast sea … ice along the East Antarctic coast.
It is known that planetary waves play important role in the polar … stratospheric vortex breakdown and ozone value increasing in late … Antarctic spring. In this work…
Polar Mesospheric Clouds (PMC) are a ubiquitous wide-spread optical … phenomena of the polar summer mesopause region, and comprise icy … aerosols that form under the influence of large-scale atmospheric ascent … and adiabatic cooling. PMC aerosols are controlled by the thermal…
As revealed by the CALIPSO orbiting lidar, the intense firestorms that occurred … in southern Australia during February 2009 injected a significant plume of … smoke particles into the lower stratosphere. Over the following weeks…
Arctic and Antarctic tropopause is formed under extreme climate … conditions, both in troposphere and stratosphere. In the troposphere, distribution of orography, ice sheet and stationary atmospheric centres of … action is distinct.
Analysis of the quasi-stationary planetary wave (QSW) influence on total … ozone column (TOC) distribution over 60°N and 60°S latitudes is … presented. TOMS version 8 total ozone data for years 1979-2003 were … used to compare the vortex-edge TOC distribution in both hemispheres.
The 15-year set of radar observations of Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere (MLT) winds obtained from Davis station in Antarctica (69S, 78E) provide an opportunity for studies of interhemispheric coupling. Observations and modelling described by Becker and Fritts [2006]…
During austral spring 2003, mesoscale sea ice drift and deformation off East … Antarctica were investigated using in situ data from a nine-buoy array. Upon deployment, the array comprised an area of about 4000 km2 with a mean ice concentration of 96%.
This paper presents details of techniques for generating … thermal infrared and visible composite images from the … cloud-free portions of temporally closely spaced MODerate resolution … Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) images…
The Antarctic climate system varies on timescales from orbital, through millennial to sub-annual, and is closely coupled to other parts of the global climate system.
We attached satellite tags to 16 humpback whales off South Eastern Australia in October/November 2008. The tags transmitted for an average of 55 days (range: 3-156 days) and provided data on migratory movements between Australia and the Antarctic feeding grounds.
This short paper describes 3 consistent regional differences in fin whale vocalizations recorded in the Southern … Ocean. Long term recordings were analysed from locations in eastern and western Australia, and locations south of … these in the Antarctic.
Molecular markers and morphological characters can help infer the colonization history of organisms. A combination of mitochondrial (mt) D-loop DNA sequences, nuclear DNA data, external measurements … and skull characteristics shows that house mice (Mus musculus)…
Cold events (CEs) are an important feature of southern Australian weather. Unseasonably cold conditions … can have a significant impact on Australia’s agricultural industry and other aspects of society. In this study the … bottom 0.4% of maximum temperatures in Melbourne and Perth from the 1958…
