Ice Nucleating Particles in the Antarctic region

, 2022
<p>Ice nucleating particles (INPs) are rare but important atmospheric particles as they induce the formation of primary ice in mixed phase clouds and also in some cirrus clouds. A plethora of substances which can be found in atmospheric particles can induce ice nucleation. The most important ice active particle types in the atmosphere are

Impacts of local human activities on the Antarctic environment [PDF]

, 2008
We review the scientific literature, especially from the past decade, on the impacts of human activities on the Antarctic environment. A range of impacts has been identified at a variety of spatial and temporal scales.

Distinct or similar? Soft bottom polychaete diversity in Arctic and Antarctic glacial fjords [PDF]

, 2014
The main aim of this study was to compare the polychaete communities in two similar polar areas: an Arctic fjord, Hornsund (Svalbard) and an Antarctic fjord, Ezcurra Inlet (South Shetlands).

Along‐Slope Variability of Cross‐Slope Eddy Transport in East Antarctica

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) transport across the Antarctic continental slope regulates the delivery of heat to the shelf and its availability to melt floating ice shelves. The cross‐slope density field, calculated from profiles collected by conductivity‐

A Color Matching Method for Mosaic HY-1 Satellite Images in Antarctica

Remote Sensing, 2023
Antarctic mapping with satellite images is an important basic task for polar environmental monitoring. Since the first Chinese marine satellite was launched in 2002, China has formed three series of more than 10 marine satellites in orbit.

PRELIMINARY LONG-PERIOD MAGNETOTELLURIC INVESTIGATION AT THE EDGE OF ICE SHEET IN EAST ANTARCTICA [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020
The lithospheric mantle structure of the Antarctic continent is of great significance of studying the polymerization and fragmentation mechanism of Gondwana and the plate movement law. Long-period magnetotelluric (LMT) is an important method to study the
