A holistic review is given of the Southern Ocean dynamic system, in the context of the crucial role it plays in the global climate and the profound changes it is experiencing. The review focuses on connections between different components of the Southern Ocean dynamic system…
The Australian Antarctic Program (AAP) serves as a unique Earth-based analog for space travel, using its extreme, isolated environments to conduct research that directly supports long-duration human spaceflight. Studies focus on the long-term effects of confinement and isolation on human health…
Australian Antarctic Space Analogue: A research project using the Antarctic environment to study the effects of isolation, confinement, and extreme conditions on human physiology and psychology, relevant to long-duration spaceflight. Medical Model:
The Weddell Gyre is one of the dominant features of the Southern Ocean circulation and its dynamics have been linked to processes of climatic relevance.
The SCAR Krill Expert Group (SKEG) aims to improve the understanding of krill biology and ecology and serve as a link between the scientific krill community and the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR), which manages the Antarctic krill fishery.
The analysis of trophically complex mathematical ecosystem models is typically carried out … using numerical techniques because it is considered that the number and nonlinear nature of the equations … involved makes the use of analytic techniques virtually impossible. In particular…
The event that occurred approximately 8200 years ago is the largest excursion in climate since the beginning of the Holocene. In this event we observe the climatic response to a perturbation which provides a probe with which to investigate the stability of interglacial climate.
For over a century, atmospheric electricity data has been collected from all over the world, as well as from space. For the last thirty years, Antarctica has been the observatory site of … choice for atmospheric electricity studies.
Current research utilises the recently installed Southern Hemisphere Imaging Riometer (SHIRE) located at Australia’s Davis Antarctic station to study riometer signatures associated with cusp-latitude magnetic impulse events (MIE’s) detected in co-located fluxgate magnetometer data.
Ground layer Adaptive Optics (GLAO) is a new variant of adaptive optics that aims at correcting the seeing … over a wide field of view by conjugating the deformable mirror to the boundary layer altitude.
