Comparisons between surface, barotropic and abyssal flows during the passage of a warm-core ring Aust. J. Mar. Freshwater Res, 1988 (Ref: 13175)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

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.

Effect of temperature on the microbial ecology of a hydrocarbon-contaminated Antarctic soil: Implications for high temperature remediation Cold Regions Science and Technology, 2008 (Ref: 13392)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

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…

Hydrocarbon contamination and remediation of Antarctic ecosystems Australian Society for Microbiology Annual Scientific Meeting, Adelaide, 9-13 July 2007, 2007 (Ref: 13060)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

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.

Petroleum-hydrocarbon contamination and remediation by microbioventing at sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island Cold Regions Science and Technology, 2007 (Ref: 12930)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Natural attenuation of petroleum hydrocarbons in polar and subpolar soils is limited by low nutrients, low temperatures, and … water availability.

Nitrogen requirements for maximising petroleum bioremediation in a sub-Antarctic soil Cold Regions Science and Technology, 2007 (Ref: 12853)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Many contaminated cold region soils are deficient in nitrogen, and addition of the proper amount of this nutrient can increase the biodegradation rate. However…

Using real-time PCR to assess changes in the hydrocarbon-degrading microbial community in Antarctic soil during bioremediation. Microbial Ecology, 2006 (Ref: 12765)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

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.
