Increased sensitivity to contaminants and risk to subantarctic marine invertebrates under predicted climate change scenarios XXXIII SCAR Biennial meeting and open science conference, Auckland, New Zealand, 25-28 August 2014, 2014 (Ref: 15388)
Category 3: Poster

Stressors associated with climate change, and contaminants resulting from the activities of humans, are affecting organisms and ecosystems worldwide. Until recently, the impacts of these stressors on marine ecosystems have largely been examined in isolation.

Increased sensitivity to contaminants and risk to subantarctic marine invertebrates under predicted climate change scenarios Integrated Marine Biogeochemistry and Ecosystem Research (IMBER) Open Science Conference, Bergen, Norway, 23-27 June 2014, 2014 (Ref: 15386)
Category 3: Poster

Stressors associated with climate change, and contaminants resulting from the activities of humans, are affecting organisms and ecosystems worldwide. Until recently, the impacts of these stressors on marine ecosystems have largely been examined in isolation. However, with predicted climate change…

Climate change and impacts on subantarctic marine invertebrates: a focus on Macquarie Island Strategic Science in Antarctica Conference, Hobart, Australia, 24-26 June 2013, 2013 (Ref: 15387)
Category 3: Poster

Stressors associated with global climate change and local human activities are affecting marine organisms worldwide. Stressors include changes in temperature, salinity and acidification, in addition to contaminants including metals and hydrocarbons.

Category 3: Poster

Understanding the sensitivity of Antarctic organisms to metal exposure is essential … for developing Antarctic specific Environmental Guidelines to manage contamination risks. For … the first time…

Temporal changes in the coastal zooplankton community off Davis Station, East Antarctica, and its response to diesel fuel contamination 2nd Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC)-Australasia Conference, Brisbane, Australia, 4-6 July 2012, 2012 (Ref: 15368)
Category 3: Poster

As zooplankton is an important food source for consumers, and a major source of … recruits to the benthic community, impacts on sensitive zooplankton communities have the … potential to significantly alter nearshore marine ecosystems in Antarctica.

The Coastal Zooplankton Community of Davis Station, East Antarctica, and its response to Diesel Fuel Pollution Third Australian National Network in Marine Science Conference: Marine science in tropical, temperate and southern oceans, Perth, Australia, 29 November–1 December 2011, 2011 (Ref: 15369)
Category 3: Poster

Zooplankton species are an important component of the Antarctic coastal ecosystem. The strongly seasonal sea ice cover and phytoplankton availability has driven a modification in the life cycles of many Antarctic zooplankton species. In general only one cycle is completed each year.

Physico-chemical changes in metal-spiked sediments deployed in the field: Implications for the interpretation of in situ studies Chemosphere, 2011 (Ref: 15327)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Manipulative field studies are useful for investigating cause–effect relationships between contamination and benthic community health. However…
