Understanding how ecological, environmental and geographic features influence population genetic patterns provides crucial insights into a species' evolutionary history, as well as their vulnerability or resilience under climate change. In the Southern Ocean…
Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) is derived from dense water that sinks from the Antarctic continental shelf to the deep ocean. The sinking of AABW is balanced by a return flow of lighter water, and the resulting overturning circulation determines the density stratification of the deep ocean…
Antarctica is one of Earth's most untouched, inhospitable, and poorly known regions. Although knowledge of its biodiversity has increased over recent decades, a diverse, wide-ranging…
The marine-based West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) is considered vulnerable to irreversible collapse under future climate trajectories, and its tipping point may lie within the mitigated warming scenarios of 1.5° to 2°C of the United Nations Paris Agreement.
The Antarctic Biodiversity Database developed and hosted by the Australian Antarctic Data Centre (AADC), holds data and information on Antarctic and subantarctic flora and fauna in support of the SCAR Life Sciences programme Evolution and Biodiversity in the Antarctic (EBA).
Short-tailed shearwaters Puffinus tenuirostris (STSH) make use of a number of physical … oceanographic features on their foraging trips to the Southern Ocean from their breeding colonies in … southeast Australia.
The pelagic distributions and relative abundances of 57 taxa of seabirds (50 species and seven species groups), comprising 38 905 records of 323 870 individuals are mapped on a monthly basis. The data were collected from research cruises and resupply vessels in the southern Indian Ocean…
The international Antarctic science community collects an amazing amount of information about wildlife. Traditionally, this information has gone into field notebooks and more recently, software such as Excel®.
The Workshop on Science Data Management was held at the National Institute of Polar Research (NIPR) from February 25-27, 2004. The Manager and Senior Applications developer from the Antarctic Data Centre (AADC)…
