Half-century air temperature change above Antarctica: Observed trends and spatial reconstructions Journal of Geophysical Research, 2012 (Ref: 15915)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

This study provides a comprehensive analysis of observed 50-year (1961-2010) seasonal air temperature trends from radiosonde ascents above Antarctica. Comparisons between multiple radiosonde data sets (homogenized in different ways)…

Interactive effects of temperature increase and ocean acidification on Antarctic Sea Urchin larvae, Sterechinus neumayeri Australian Marine Sciences Association and New Zealand Marine Sciences Society Joint Conference (AMSA-NZMSS), Hobart, Tasmania, 1-5 July 2012, 2012 (Ref: 15376)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Ocean acidification has been identified as a significant feature of climate change influencing the world’s marine biota. As … ocean pH decreases, an increase in temperature is also expected.

Category 3: Verbal presentation

Although many Quaternary records have allowed the study of major glacial-interglacial change in the … Southern Ocean, Holocene records from deep-sea cores are few and far between and are currently … limited to the South Atlantic. Low sedimentation rates combined with deep seafloors…

Development of appropriate bioassay and statistical methods for determining survival sensitivities of Antarctic marine biota to metal exposure 2nd Society for Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) Australasia Conference, Brisbane, Australia, 4-6 July 2012, 2012 (Ref: 15456)
Category 3: Poster

Chemical contamination resulting from human activities has been identified in … nearshore marine environments in the vicinity of Antarctic Research Stations. To better … manage and remediate contaminated sites, and to assess the risks of ongoing activities…

Development of appropriate bioassay and statistical methods for determining survival sensitivities of Antarctic marine biota to metal exposure Society for Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) World Congress, Berlin, Germany, 20-24 May 2012, 2012 (Ref: 15457)
Category 3: Poster

Developing water quality guidelines for Antarctic marine environments requires understanding sensitivity of biota to contaminant exposure. Toxicity tests with Antarctic … invertebrates have shown response times to metal exposure takes far longer than the durations of standard bioassay methods.
