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