Effects of diesel and lubricant oils on Antarctic benthic microbial communities over five years. Aquatic Microbial Ecology, 2010 (Ref: 14227)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A 5 yr field experiment was carried out comparing the effects of Special Antarctic Blend (SAB) diesel, synthetic lubricant (Mobil 0W40), used synthetic lubricant (used Mobil 0W40) and a biodegradable lubricant (Titan GT1) on Antarctic benthic microbial communities.

Correspondence on Geisz et al. Melting Glacier: A Probable Source of DDT to the Antarctic Marine Ecosystem Environmental Science and Technology, 2009 (Ref: 13828)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Geisz et al. report an unexpected consequence of climate … change, implicating glacier meltwater as a source for DDT … in coastal Antarctic seas (1). Hypothetically, glaciers may … act as secondary sources for DDT and there may be a link … to climate change. However, their data are sparse, variable…

Microbial community dynamics in oil contaminated Antarctic sediments Australian Society for Microbiology Annual Scientific Meeting. Perth, July 2009. Plenary Presentation., 2009 (Ref: 14139)
Category 3: Abstract

In 2001 a unique field experiment was established to compare the longevity and effects of four different oils on the Antarctic benthic ecosystem. Clean sediment was collected, spiked with one of the oils: Special Antarctic Blend (SAB) diesel, synthetic lubricant (Mobil 0W-40)…
