The Protocol on Environmental Protection to the Antarctic Treaty (the Madrid Protocol) introduces the requirement to plan and conduct activities to avoid or minimise degradation of the wilderness and aesthetic values of Antarctica.

A new approach to the solution of the linear mixing model for a single isotope: application to the case of an opportunistic predator Oecologia, 2005 (Ref: 12014)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Abstract Mixing models are used to determine diets … where the number of prey items are greater than one, however, the limitation of the linear mixing method is … the lack of a unique solution when the number of potential … sources is greater than the number (n) of isotopic … signatures +1.

An analysis of temperatures and wind speeds above Dome C, Antarctica. Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2005 (Ref: 11894)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Abstract. A good astronomical site must fulfill several criteria including low atmospheric turbulence and low wind speeds. is therefore important to have a detailed knowledge of the temperature and wind conditions of a location considered for future … astronomical research.
