Filter Pad absorption measurements of suspended particulate matter - data...
Particulates in the water were concentrated onto 25mm glass fibre filters. Light transmission and reflection through the filters was measured using a spectrophotometer to yield... -
Limnological and nearshore diatom communities of Heard Island: proxies of...
---- Public Summary from Project ---- Heard Island offers scientists a unique subantarctic laboratory for investigating climate change. We will establish a reference set of... -
Microalgal Biodiversity at Antarctica
A collection of about 20 isolates of Antarctic microalgae from the Windmill Islands region, around Casey Station has been established in the University of Malaya Algae Culture... -
The effect of global climate change on Antarctic marine diatoms
Antarctic marine diatoms are sensitive to environment change. This project will determine the environmental niches occupied by key diatom species in Antarctic sediments. This... -
The Ecology and Biogeography of Heard Island Marine Benthos
Collections of 23 macroinvertebrate taxa associated with Durvillaea antarctica holdfasts and 58 invertebrate taxa associated with artificial substrata collectors are described... -
A manipulative field experiment examining the recruitment of sessile...
The recruitment of epifauna (sessile and mobile) on hard-substratum was examined in a field experiment using tiles. A total of 160 tiles were deployed at five locations, with 32... -
Effects of Enhanced UV-B on Sea Ice Algae
From the abstract of some of the papers: It has been suggested that increased springtime UVB radiation caused by stratospheric ozone depletion is likely to reduce primary... -
Photosynthetic rates of Antarctic sea-ice algae
From the abstract of one of the papers: Oxygen microelectrodes were used to measure the photosynthetic rates of Antarctic fast ice algal mats. Using the oxygen flux across the... -
Latitudinal Gradient Project - Australian contributions
This record relates to the Australian component of the Latitudinal Gradient Project. The LGP is largely a New Zealand, US and Italian venture, but a small contribution has been... -

Effects of UV radiation on community establishment: a global perspective
Increased ultraviolet radiation (UV-A and/or UV-B) may impact on the establishment and structure of a shallow water benthic invertebrate assemblages. A global experiment in more... -
State of the Environment Database of Antarctic related indicators
Antarctica is the world's greatest remaining wilderness area. It plays a significant role in many global environmental issues such as wind and water currents and world weather... -
Sedimentary Processes in the Fjord-like Embayments of the Vestfold and...
Ellis Fjord is a small, fjord-like marine embayment in the vestfold Hills, eastern Antarctica. Modern sediment input is dominated by a biogenic diatom rain, although aeolian,... -
Sea ice primary production off eastern Antarctica
Sea ice covers up to 20 million km2 of the Southern Ocean. When present it supports a vigorous ecosystem that provides energy and food for all other marine organisms. Using the... -
