Limited area NWP using the UK MetOffice Portable Unified Model based on version 6.1 with modifications. The forecast domain is located over the Barents Sea. Hirlam12 forecasts are used as lateral ...


5. GIS analysis, biological samples (soil microorganism, invertebrate and plant), automatic weather station data and vegetation and invertebrate surveys to determine the terrestrial biocomplexity of the McMurdo Dry Valleys [K020_2008_2012_NZ_1]
The McMurdo Dry Valleys are the largest area of snow-free land in Antarctica. Managers ability to promote and protect these areas would benefit if we knew the biodiversity present and what controls ...


6. Microbial Ecology of Antarctic Soils [ASAC_36]
Metadata record for data from ASAC Project 36 See the link below for public details on this project. From the abstract of one of the referenced papers - &Environmental conditions and microbiological ...


7. BAS Soil and Water Sampling Locations at Casey and Davis January 2005 [BAS_Soil]
Soilwater samples were collected from some of the sites used in ASAC project 2542 (ASAC_2542). Water was extracted from soil using vacuum tubes. They will be sent to BAS and analysed for dissolved ...


8. Soil biogeochemical toxicity end points for sub-Antarctic islands contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons [ASAC_1163_Soil_Tox_Pet]
Taken from the abstract of the referenced paper: Sub-Antarctic islands have been subjected to petroleum hydrocarbon spills, yet no information is available regarding the toxicity of petroleum ...


9. GIS analysis, biological samples (soil microorganism, invertebrate and plant), automatic weather station data and vegetation and invertebrate surveys to determine the terrestrial biocomplexity of the McMurdo Dry Valleys [K020_2008_2009_NZ_1]
The McMurdo Dry Valleys are the largest area of snow-free land in Antarctica. Managers ability to promote and protect these areas would benefit if we knew the biodiversity present and what controls ...


10. Investigation into the environmental factors that drive microbial diversity in the soils of the Miers Valley, Mt Erebus, Bratina Island and Beacon Valley [K023_2005_2007_NZ_1]   PARENT DIF
Modern molecular phylogenetics, in conjunction with sensitive mineral surface geochemical analysis, was used to determine the quantitative and qualitative distribution of micro-organism in Dry Valley ...


11. Investigation into the environmental factors that drive microbial diversity in the soils of the Miers Valley, Mt Erebus, Bratina Island and Beacon Valley [K023_2007_2008_NZ_1]   PARENT DIF
In this study, the active microbial component in the Dry Valleys system was characterized using newly developed molecular techniques with the aid of in situ augmentation and cloches (wind protection) ...


12. Microbial diversity and the environmental factors that drive the microbial community in the Ross Sea Region [K023_2004_2008_NZ_1]   CHILD DIFs
The Antarctic environment has recently been shown to support a high level of diversity of bacteria in the soil given the simplicity and extreme nature of the habitat. Understanding the relationship ...
