Antarctic and Sub-Antarctic Asteroidea database [PDF]
The present dataset is a compilation of georeferenced occurrences of asteroids (Echinodermata: Asteroidea) in the Southern Ocean. Occurrence data south of 45°S latitude were mined from various sources together with information regarding the taxonomy, the sampling source and sampling sites when available.

VOLCANIC EVENTS RECORD OVER THE LAST 900 YEARS FROM SNOW AND FIRN SEQUENCE IN VOSTOK STATION AREA
The results of chemical analyses of snow samples from five pits and cores drilled in the vicinities of Vostok Station, Antarctica, are presented. High resolution (every 2–3 cm, or about three samples per year) ion measurements allowed to compile a new ...
