Assessing Wilderness and Aesthetic Values in Antarctica. Antarctic Ecosystems: Models for Wider Ecological Understanding, 2000 (Ref: 9635)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The Protocol on Environmental Protection to the Antarctic Treaty (the Madrid Protocol) introduces the requirement to plan and conduct activities to avoid or minimise degradation of the wilderness and aesthetic values of Antarctica.

Perceptions of danger, risk taking, and outcomes in a remote community. Environment and Behavior, 2000 (Ref: 9152)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

On the surface, the severity of the Antarctic environment is sufficient to account for the injury rates that might occur there. However, it is argued that injury occurrence is the outcome of multiple factors. A number of such factors…

Effect of line sink rate on albatross mortality in the Patagonian Toothfish longline fishery. CCAMLR Science, 2000 (Ref: 9496)
Authors:
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

An experiment was conducted on an autoline longline vessel to derive a sink rate, and line weighting regime, that would minimise the capture of albatrosses based on knowledge of line sink rates and albatross diving abilities. Sink rates of lines deployed into propeller turbulence…

Diving behaviour of Adelie penguins ( Pygoscelis adeliae ) at Dumont D'Urville, Antarctica: nocturnal patterns of diving and rapid adaptations to changes in sea-ice condition. Polar Biology, 2000 (Ref: 9481)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The diving behaviour of Adelie penguins Pygoscelis adeliae was studied with time-depth recorders at Dumont DUrville, Antarctica, during the breeding seasons in 1995/1996 and 1996/1997. We studied penguins foraging at all breeding stages, in various sea-ice conditions.

Summer microbial ecology off East Antarctica (80-150°E): protistan community structure and bacterial abundance. Deep -Sea Research II, 2000 (Ref: 9500)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We present a comprehensive protistan data set for the southern Indian sector of the Southern Ocean, sampled during the Austral summer (January-March) of 1996. Cells from discrete water bottle samples were examined to gain both qualitative and quantitative information on the composition…

Adélie penguin foraging behaviour and krill abundance along the Wilkes and Adélie land coasts, Antarctica. Deep-Sea Research Part II, 2000 (Ref: 9487)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The foraging behaviour of Adélie penguins Pygoscelis adeliae was studied simultaneously at Shirley Island (SI, 110° E) and at Petrel Island (PI, 140° E) in approximate conjunction with the ship-based krill survey conducted on board the RSV Aurora Australis.
