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…

Survey of South Polar Skuas ( Catharacta maccormicki ) for Blood Parasites in the Vestfold Hills Region of Antarctica Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2002 (Ref: 10418)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Thin blood smears prepared from 125 South Polar skuas (Catharacta maccormicki) at breeding islands and feeding sites in the Vestfold Hills region of Antarctica between December 1999 and Janurary 2000 did not contain hematozoa.

Macquarie Island's Finch-Langdon Fault Zone: A ridge-transform corner structure preserved along the pacific-Australian plate boundary Geological Society of America Abstracts with Programs, 2000 (Ref: 9367)
Category 3: Abstract

Macquarie Island, located along the Australian-Pacific transform plate boundary~1200 km south of New Zealand, consists of uplifted oceanic crust that still lies within the ocean basin where it formed. A lower crustal and upper mantle section of sheeted dikes…

Measuring the effects of human activity on Weddell seals ( Leptonychotes weddellii ) in Antarctica. VIII SCAR International Biology Symposium, August 27- September 1, 2001, 2001 (Ref: 9892)
Category 3: Abstract

The number of people travelling to Antarctica and interacting with wildlife is continually increasing. Research has indicated that visitation can have a negative effect on some Antarctic wildlife, causing changes to their behaviour and physiology. Weddell seals (Leptonychotes weddellii)…

A preliminary analysis of baleen whale distribution around the Western Antarctic Peninsula in the Austral fall and winter Biennial Meeting of the Society for Marine Mammalogy, Vancouver, Canada, November 28-December 3, 2001, 2001 (Ref: 10509)
Category 3: Poster

The International Whaling Commission (IWC) and Southern Ocean Global Ocean Ecosystem Dynamics (SO GLOBEC) program are collaborating on an ecosystem approach to understand baleen whale distributions in Antarctica.

A multidisciplinary ecosystem approach to the study of cetaceans in the Southern Ocean Thesis, 2000 (Ref: 9311)
Authors:
Category 3: Thesis, higher degree

This thesis describes cetacean research in the Southern Ocean by the author. The work involved: initiating and developing the Southern Ocean Cetacean Ecosystem Program; conducting exploratory and further research; analysing, writing up and reporting on the results in refereed scientific journals…

Disease in Antarctic Penguins 2001 ASM Annual Scientific Meeting and Exhibition '2001: A Microbiol Odyssey' 30 September-5 October 2001, Australia., 2001 (Ref: 10448)
Category 3: Abstract

Penguins breeding in the Antarctic have evolved in the most isolated ecosystem in the world. However, recent increase in human activity in the region, both in tourism and science, has led to concern regarding the possible introduction of infectious agents to Antarctic wildlife.

Investigations of Bacterial, Viral and Parasitic Infections in Antarctic Penguins VIII SCAR International Biology Symposium 'Antarctic Biology in a Global Context' 27 August-1 September 2001, The Netherlands., 2001 (Ref: 10446)
Category 3: Abstract

Penguins breeding in the Antarctic have evolved in the most isolated ecosystem in the world, receiving only very minimal exposure to infectious agents from other regions. However, yearly expansion of human activity in the region, seen both in tourism and science…

Antarctic sea-ice habitat for minke whales ( Balaenoptera acutorostrata sp.). Results of a line transect survey in East Antarctica. International Whaling Commission Scientific Committee, May 2002, Japan., 2002 (Ref: 10498)
Category 3: Conference paper

The review of southern hemisphere minke whales is currently a priority work item within the International Whaling Commission (IWC) Scientific Committee (SC). Reliable abundance estimation is an important component of the review process.

A multiple trace gas diagnoses of the interannual variability in the global carbon cycle, 1992-2000 In: Cape Grim Baseline Air Pollution Station Annual Scientific Meeting: abstracts 1999-2000, 2000 (Ref: 9998)
Category 3: Conference paper

Monitoring of background atmospheric CO2 concentration in recent decades has revealed interannual growth rate variations (IAV) that are linked to the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO). However, the nature of this link is not well understood.

A multiple trace gas diagnoses of the interannual variability in the global carbon cycle, 1992-2000. Cape Grim Baseline Air Pollution Station Annual Scientific Meeting: abstracts, Aspendale, Victoria, 2000 (Ref: 10005)
Category 3: Abstract

Monitoring of background atmospheric CO2 concentration in recent decades has revealed interannual growth rate variations (IAV) that are linked to the El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO). However, the nature of this link is not well understood.
