Metal lability, sea ice cover, and physicochemical properties of sediments as predictors of benthic communities in Antarctic coastal environments Environmental Pollution, 2025 (Ref: 17305)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Metals are important nutrients to marine life but may cause toxicity at elevated concentrations. There is uncertainty about how sediment metal concentrations influence benthic biodiversity, in part because metal bioavailability depends on sediment properties.

Sensitivity and Response of Antarctic and sub-Antarctic Species to Fuel Contamination Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) Asia Pacific and Australasia Conference, Adelaide, South Australia, 14-17 September 2014, 2014 (Ref: 15454)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Fuel spills have occurred in Antarctic and sub-Antarctic regions, and comprehensive remediation strategies have recently been established to clean-up fuel spills at Australia’s Casey Station and Macquarie Island. However…

Sensitivity and response of Antarctic moss, terrestrial algae and cyanobacteria to fuel contamination Strategic Science in Antarctica Conference, Hobart, Australia, 24-26 June 2013, 2013 (Ref: 15452)
Category 3: Poster

Numerous fuel spills associated with human activities in Antarctica have occurred and significant levels of petroleum hydrocarbon contamination have been reported near Antarctic stations.

Development of soil remediation guidelines for Macquarie island: sensitivity assessment of germination in native subantarctic flora Strategic Science in Antarctica Conference, Hobart, Australia, 24-26 June 2013, 2013 (Ref: 15453)
Category 3: Poster

Special Antarctic Blend (SAB) is a light end diesel fuel, comprised mainly of petroleum hydrocarbons (alkanes nC9-C14, trace levels of nC15-23). It is used as the main source for power generation at Australia’s Research Stations in Antarctica and the subantarctic, including Macquarie Island.
