Monitoring Antarctic marine invertebrates using an artificial substrate: detecting human impacts. Detecting Environmental Change: Science and Society. 17-20 July 2001, London, UK., 2001 (Ref: 9727)
Authors:
Category 3: Poster

Variation in the structure of Antarctic marine benthic macrofaunal communities is being investigated using an artificial substrate which mimics a kelp holdfast environment.

Foraging space of emperor penguins Aptenodytes forsteri in Antarctic shelf waters in winter Marine Ecology Progress Series, 1997 (Ref: 9488)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

To determine the foraging space of Emperor penguins Aptenodytes forsteri in winter 12 females from Auster colony (13 400 pairs) were equipped with satellite transmitters and time-depth recorders before departing on their 77 ± 8 d winter (June-August) foraging trip.

Under-ice movements and territory use in free-ranging Weddell seals during the breeding season New Zealand Natural Sciences, 1998 (Ref: 8643)
Category 3: Abstract

Weddell seals (Leptonychotes weddelli) are the most southerly breeding of all mammals and breed on the fast-ice around the shores of the Antarctic continent. Weddell seals display a polygynous mating system, with operational sex ratios (OSR) ranging from 3:1 to 8:1.

Notes on the flora, vertebrate fauna and biological significance of Beaufort Island, Ross Sea, Antarctica Polarforschung, 1999 (Ref: 8736)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Beaufort Island, Ross Sea, Antarctica, is a Specially Protected Area originally designated on account of, and still supporting, a small winter sea ice breeding colony of Emperor penguins, a large summer breeding colony of Adélie penguins, and several colonies of Skuas. A substantial area of moss…

Coordinated observations of forced and resonant field line oscillations at high-latitudes. ANARE Reports, 2001 (Ref: 10056)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

In this paper we examine the geomagnetic signatures of solar wind impulses using magnetometer array data, a bistatic HF radar, and a co-located imaging riometer. The impulses were associated with 1.6mHz magnetic pulsations that were observed across a wide range of latitudes.

HF Doppler oscillations due to mixed ULF wave modes. ANARE Reports, 2001 (Ref: 10055)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

HF signals that propagate via the ionosphere may exhibit Doppler shifts due to a number of processes that give rise to a time dependent refractive index. This paper examines the role of ULF (1–100mHz) wave energy, incident from the magnetosphere, in causing Doppler shifts in HF signals.

A survey of the Vanderford and Adams Glaciers in East Antarctica (Abstract). Annals of Glaciology, 1986 (Ref: 2505)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

A comprehensive, airborne survey of the Vanderford and Adams glaciers was started in January 1983, continued through the austral summer season 1984/5, and completed in February 1985. Ice thickness and surface-elevation data were collected over some 4500 square kilometres…

Investigation of Polynyas near Mawson Using Satellite Imagery. G.Dip. Thesis IASOS, University of Tasmania, 1995 (Ref: 9034)
Authors:
Category 3: Thesis, higher degree

Around the Antarctic continent, polynyas form within the sea ice due to wind-forcing or upwelling of warm ocean water. Acting as ventillators in the ice cover, polynyas accelerate the exchange of energy, gas and aerosol at the ocean/atmosphere boundary…

Polar magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling: ULF wave and particle signatures. Ph.D. Thesis, 1997 (Ref: 8385)
Authors:
Category 3: Thesis, higher degree

This work investigates interactions and mappings of the boundary layers, polar cusp and outer magnetosphere with the high latitude ionosphere. Primary diagnostic tools are plasma waves observed on the ground as geomagnetic pulsations.
