Ecology and management of invasive plants in the sub-Antarctic and Antarctic regions: evidence and synthesis from Macquarie Island Plant Ecology and Diversity, 2022 (Ref: 17224)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Background … The Antarctic is an extreme environment for plants. Several invasive plant species, however, have invaded the sub-Antarctic Southern Ocean islands and increasingly threaten the vulnerability of maritime and continental Antarctica, particularly with changes in climate.

Further steps towards a structured sample and data collection of environmental contamination in the Antarctic ATCM XLIV - CEP XXIV Berlin, Germany 23 May - 2 June 2022, Delegation of Germany, Italy, Australia, United Kingdom, United States of America and Sweden (only AAD authors listed), 2022 (Ref: 16983)
Category 2: International meeting papers

Increasing levels of chemical contamination in the Antarctica environment are resulting from global and regional human activities. Unlike other areas of the world, Antarctica lacks continent-wide systematic and coordinated monitoring of contaminants. Germany, Italy, Australia, United Kingdom…

Update on current initiatives for a more structured sample and data collection of environmental contamination in the Antarctic ATCM XLIV - CEP XXIV Berlin, Germany 23 May - 2 June 2022, Delegations of Germany, Italy, Australia, United Kingdom, United States of America and Sweden (AAD authors only listed), 2022 (Ref: 16978)
Category 2: International meeting papers

There is growing evidence that the Antarctic is increasingly exposed to chemical stressors. Antarctica is impacted by global issues such as climate change and long-range transport of chemicals. Furthermore, expanding tourism and research activities…

Direct evidence for significant deglaciation across the Weddell Sea embayment during MeltWater Pulse-1B Geophysical Research Abstracts, European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly 2015, Vienna, Austria, 12-17 April 2015, 2015 (Ref: 15722)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

During the last deglaciation (21,000 to 7,000 years ago) global sea level rise was punctuated by several abruptmeltwater spikes triggered by the retreat of ice sheets and glaciers world-wide. However, questions regarding therelative timing…

Vessel collisions with small cetaceans worldwide and with large whales in the Southern Hemisphere; building a standardized database 2006 IWC-Scientific Committee SC/58/BC6, 2006 (Ref: 13535)
Category 2: International meeting papers

We compiled and reviewed 248 cases of reported vessel collisions with small cetaceans worldwide and with large … cetaceans in the Southern Hemisphere. Difficulties were encountered with the comparison of highly variable data in … terms of quality (evidence), sources…

Comparison of observed temperature and salinity changes in the Indo-Pacific with results from the coupled climate model HadCM3:processes and mechanisms Journal of Climate, 2003 (Ref: 13170)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Observed changes in temperature and salinity properties on isopycnals across hydrographic sections throughout … the Indo-Pacific are compared with the changes modeled by the coupled climate model, HadCM3. Observations … show cooling and freshening on isopycnals in midlatitudes…

Bryophyte Propagule Banks in Feldmarks on Subantarctic Macquarie Island. Arctic, Antarctic and Alpine Research, 1999 (Ref: 8766)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Subantarctic Macquarie Island has substantial areas of feldmark on its plateau above 200 m altitude. Samples of the substrate (5.5 cm in depth) from bare areas of feldmark contained viable propagules of bryophyte species found at adjacent and distant sites on the island.
