A comparison is made of results for barotropic, surface and abyssal flows during the formation and … passage of a warm-core ring in the East Australian Current. The barotropic velocities are estimated from … sea-floor measurements of the horizontal electric field, which is induced by water motion.
A series of nutrient-amended microcosms was used to investigate changing microbial communities during biodegradation in … hydrocarbon-contaminated Antarctic soils at 4, 10 and 42 °C. Although sample heterogeneity resulted in no statistically significant … reduction in total petroleum hydrocarbons…
Australia’s Antarctic territory contains several hydrocarbon-contaminated sites of varying size and severity as a result of fifty years of human activities in the region. Contaminated site remediation in Antarctica is more challenging than in Australia.
Natural attenuation of petroleum hydrocarbons in polar and subpolar soils is limited by low nutrients, low temperatures, and … water availability.
Many contaminated cold region soils are deficient in nitrogen, and addition of the proper amount of this nutrient can increase the biodegradation rate. However…
A real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method to … quantify the proportion of microorganisms containing … alkane monooxygenase was developed and used to follow … changes in the microbial community in hydrocarboncontaminated … Antarctic soil during a bioremediation field … trial.
