Disturbance of emperor penguin Aptenodytes forsteri chicks by helicopters. Polar Biology, 1999 (Ref: 8851)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Creching emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) chicks were exposed to two overflights by a Sikorsky S-76, twin engine helicopter at 1000 m (3300 ft), a current operational guideline of the Australian Antarctic Division for helicopter activity in Antarctica.

Digisonde Studies of Polar Patches above Casey, Antarctica South Pacific SRAMP meeting, La Trobe University, Bundoora, Victoria, 27-29 September, 1999, 1999 (Ref: 8866)
Category 3: Poster

From 1997 to 1999 a series of campaigns were undertaken at the Australian Antarctic polar cap station Casey (-80.6o CGM latitude) with the aim of identifying and gaining further understanding of polar patches. The main instrument used for these campaigns was a Lowell Digital Ionosonde (DPS-4)…

Estimates of present-day glacial rebound in the Lambert Glacier region, Antarctica Geophysical Research Letters, 1999 (Ref: 8746)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Changes in the ice load since the time of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) contribute to the present-day vertical motion of the Antarctic continent. The observation of these motions will reveal information on the ice load history.

Arsenic speciation in estuarine and oceanic waters by hydride generation - atomic fluorescence spectroscopy , 1999 (Ref: 9187)
Category 3: Thesis, higher degree

A method has been developed for the routine determination of four arsenic species (arsenite, arsenate, monomethylarsenic and dimethylarsenic) in natural water, and has been applied to a study of arsenic cycling in open ocean (Atlantic and Southern Ocean) and estuarine (Huon Estuary, Tasmania)…

Monitoring of environmental conditions in a severe climate: how this can assist in development of conservation strategies for historic buildings and artefacts in Antarctica Preprints of International Council of Museums Committee for Conservation, Lyons France, 1999 (Ref: 8640)
Category 3: Conference paper

It is commonly presumed that historic material in Antarctica should be well preserved because of the severe, dry cold. Examination of several historic Antarctic sites, however, reveals that many buildings and artefacts suffer deterioration from humidity.
