Real-time tracking of blue whales using DIFAR sonobuoys. Proceedings of the Australian Acoustical Society; Acoustics 2012 - Fremantle, Australia, 21-23 November 2012, 2012 (Ref: 15257)
Authors:
Category 3: Conference paper

Passive acoustic tracking of blue whales has been proposed as a key component in a strategy to obtain a circumpolar abundance for Antarctic blue whale as proposed in a project of the IWC Southern Ocean Research Partnership.

A Sealers Midden Provides Evidence a Live Pig (Sus scrofa) was Taken Ashore at Heard Island During the "Elephanting" Industry (1855–1882). Journal of Maritime Archaeology, 2012 (Ref: 14716)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Livestock was often released onto remote Southern Ocean islands as a food source for shipwreck survivors during the industrial whaling and sealing era. Although animals were put ashore at nearby Isles Kerguelen and Crozet…

United Nations Environment Programme, Environmental Effects Assessment Panel. Environmental effects of ozone depletion and its interactions with climate change: progress report, 2011. Photochemical & Photobiological Sciences, 2012 (Ref: 14685)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The parties to the Montreal Protocol are informed by three panels of experts. One of these is the … Environmental Effects Assessment Panel (EEAP), which deals with two focal issues. The first focus is … the effects of increased UV radiation on human health, animals, plants, biogeochemistry…

Calculations of Ozone Loss Rates within the Antarctic “Ozone Hole” using Quasi-Lagrangian Measurements of Ozone made during the Concordiasi Long-duration Balloon Campaign. Quadrennial Ozone Symposium 2012, Toronto, Canada, 27-31 August, 2012 (Ref: 15105)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Considerable progress in our understanding of the causes of polar stratospheric ozone loss has been made during the past two decades. However, model calculations are still limited by uncertainties in both chemical and dynamical factors.

High-resolution Antarctic observations of the stratospheric influence on the troposphere. 3rd International Conference on Earth System Modelling, Hamburg, Germany, 17-21 September 2012, 2012 (Ref: 15127)
Category 3: Poster

The upper troposphere and lower stratosphere (UTLS) is a highly coupled region of the atmosphere where radiation, dynamics, clouds and chemical processes interact on a wide variety of spatial and temporal scales. We use a suite of instruments at Davis, Antarctica (69S, 78E)…

Southern polar stratospheric metrics of the Australian Community Climate and Earth System Simulator (ACCESS). 3rd International Conference on Earth System Modelling, Hamburg, Germany, 17-21 September 2012, 2012 (Ref: 15126)
Category 3: Poster

We use a set of metrics for the polar atmosphere to compare coupled ocean-atmosphere general circulation models (AOGCMs) experiments for the 5th Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) with results from chemistryclimate models (CCMs) of the 2nd Chemistry-Climate Model Validation (CCMVal-2)…

Impacts of ocean acidification on early development of Antarctic krill. Third International Symposium on the Ocean in a High CO2 World, Monterey, California, USA, 24-27 September 2012, 2012 (Ref: 15091)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Antarctic krill (hereafter krill) is the key species of the Antarctic marine ecosystem as well as a target of commercial fishery in the Southern Ocean, which compels careful predictions about potential impacts of Ocean Acidification (OA)…
