Modelling Solar Potential for Energy Generation in Cold Regions. Proceedings of the Sixth International Symposium on Cold Region Development, Hobart, Tasmania, 31 Jan - 04 Feb 2000, 2000 (Ref: 9029)
Category 3: Conference paper

The application of renewable power systems is particularly relevant to remote locations such as Antarctic stations, where traditional fossil fuel based systems incur relatively high costs of fuel transportation, in conjunction with an increased risk of environmental damage.

Making the most of Solar Energy in Antarctica (Solar Potential for Australian Antarctic Bases). Proceedings of the Ninth SCALOP Symposium on Antarctic Logistics and Operations, 2000 (Ref: 9678)
Category 3: Abstract

The application of renewable power systems is particularly relevant to remote locations such as Antarctica, where traditional fossil fuel based systems incur relatively high costs of fuel transportation in conjunction with an increased risk of environmental damage.

Using Large Commercial Wind Turbines in Antarctica (Wind Power for Australian Antarctic Stations) Proceedings of the Ninth SCALOP Symposium on Antarctic Logistics and Operations, 2000 (Ref: 9677)
Category 3: Conference paper

Research and data collection over several years has allowed us to determine the best alternative energy option for Australian stations. This is to install a small number of large commercially available, minimally modified wind-turbines. They would be variable-speed, 280kW machines without gearboxes…

Energy Services: Back to Basics and Up to Hybrids Proceedings of the Ninth SCALOP Symposium, 2000 (Ref: 9676)
Category 3: Conference paper

The provision of energy services has always held a vital, central role in the support of Antarctic research operations.

Mosses surviving on the edge: Origins, genetic diversity, and mutation in Antarctica. Molecular Systematics of Bryophytes. Monographs in Systematic Botany from the Missouri Botanical Garden, 2004 (Ref: 12453)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Mosses are the dominant plant species in continental Antarctica, where they sparsely colonize the limited stony … coastal areas not permanently covered with snow and ice. The few species of mosses present in Antarctica live ‘‘on the … edge’’ for plant life…

Methodology for the Study, Assessment and Testing of Alternative Energy Systems at the Antarctic Stations. Proceedings of the Eighth Symposium on Antarctic Logistics and Operations, Concepcion, Chile, July 1998, 1998 (Ref: 8586)
Category 3: Conference paper

The French-Australian cooperative project "Alternative Energy Systems for Antarctic Stations" was originally focused on a broad study of station needs and alternative energy options. It has evolved towards an integrated system combining knowledge and data management…
