Tracking the origins of the introduced terrestrial amphipod, Puhuruhuru patersoni, on sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island. New Zealand Journal of Zoology, 2023 (Ref: 17073)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The terrestrial amphipod Puhuruhuru patersoni (Amphipoda: Talitridae) was discovered on sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island in 1992. The species is only known to naturally occur on New Zealand's South Island and some associated offshore islands.

Paratrochammina minutissima n. sp. in brackish, marine-derived lakes of the Vestfold Hills, East Antarctica Journal of Foraminiferal Research, 2008 (Ref: 13617)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Paratrochammina minutissima n. sp. is described from … Abraxas and Ace Lakes in the Vestfold Hills, East … Antarctica. The species is characterized by very small size … (120 mm diameter), 4K chambers in the final whorl…

Evidence for the continued existence of Abraxas Lake, Vestfold Hills, East Antarctica during the Last Glacial Maximum Antarctic Science, 2009 (Ref: 13616)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Evidence is provided from a sediment core from saline Abraxas Lake, Vestfold Hills, that indicates that the lake existed through the Last Glacial Maximum. It can therefore be concluded that at least part of the Vestfold Hills also remained ice-free through the Last Glacial Maximum…

The status of two exotic terrestrial Crustacea on sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island Polar Record, 2008 (Ref: 13355)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Two terrestrial Crustacea, Puhuruhuru patersoni (Amphipoda: Talitridae) and Styloniscus otakensis … (Isopoda: Styloniscidae), were discovered on sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island in 1991 and 1992, respectively. Each … species was identified as having been described, and previously only known…

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.

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…
