Multi-year monitoring of rift propagation on the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica. Geophysical Research Letters., 2005 (Ref: 11800)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We use satellite imagery from four sensors (Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR), Enhanced Thematic Mapper (ETM), and RADARSAT and ERS Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) to monitor the lengths of two rifts on the Amery Ice Shelf, from 1996 to 2004.

Influence of an Antarctic waste dump on recruitment to nearshore marine soft-sediment assemblages. Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2004 (Ref: 11538)

Abandoned waste dumps in Antarctica pose an environmental hazard due to contaminant … mobilisation in marine and terrestrial habitats. At Casey Station, east Antarctica, a shoreline … waste dump has contaminated adjacent marine sediments with metals, hydrocarbons and organic … carbon.

Cetacean distribution off Eastern Antarctica (80-150E) during the austral summer of 1995/96 Deep Sea Research II, 2000 (Ref: 9183)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Abstract … A line transect marine science survey of the waters off East Antarctica (80°E-150°E; CCAMLR Division 58.4.1; IWC Areas IV &V) was conducted during the austral summer of 1995/96. A total of 350 hours search effort resulted in 342 sightings (746 animals)…

The role of ice in determining mixing intensity in Ellis Fjord, Vestfold Hills, East Antarctica. Antarctic Science, 1999 (Ref: 9177)
Authors:
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Mixing in Ellis Fjord, Vestfold Hills, East Antarctica, is controlled by processes influenced by the extent of ice formation. A study of water temperature and salinity as a site near the middle of the fjord was undertaken from May 1994 to February 1995 after a summer (1993-94)…

Ozone loss rates over the Arctic and Antarctic measured with the Match approach. Proceedings of the Vintersol/solve II meeting held in Kissimmee, Florida, USA from 21-24 October, 2003., 2003 (Ref: 11242)
Category 3: Poster

In order to improve our understanding of the January losses of ozone in the Arctic vortex two ozonesondes Match campaigns are scheduled within the project "Quantitative Understanding of Ozone losses by Bipolar Investigations" (QUOBI).
