@Antarcticmoss and I are on our way!
#SCAR2024

[Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) @SCAR_Tweets]

The SCAR Secretariat has now travelled to Pucón to prepare for #SCAR2024.

We are pleased to report that the views from the venue are indeed phenomenal. 🌋
We can't wait to see many of you here!

🎧 Listen in to @Antarcticmoss on Antarctic moss!

She recently recorded a conversation with Plant Kingdom about the incredible and fragile #moss ecosystems in #Antarctica.

Real-time monitoring of biological changes in #Antarctica is extremely difficult to achieve, but necessary to understand ecosystem responses to cyclic and long-term climate shifts.

Read about how we’re tackling this problem 👇🏼 Led by @DanaMBergstrom Jane Wasley @Antarcticmoss

🦠 Is the #atmosphere Earth's largest microbial ecosystem?

SAEF Associate Investigator @RachaelLappan researches #microbes in the atmosphere.

She's trying to determine if microbes simply use the air for transport or if it's a permanent home.

Historical photos from the 1960s have extended the record of what glaciers looked like decades before the Larsen-B ice shelf collapsed.

By the time sea ice/snow melts & life returns to Antarctica each summer, the ozone hole is usually on its way to closing. But recently it’s extended well into summer and coincided with heatwaves and low sea ice extent, leaving plants & animals exposed to unseasonably high UV.

Covering all disciplines of #Antarctic science, we’re bringing together #AusAntarctic scientists to share knowledge all in one place.

I’m on the organising committee for this conference. Let me know if there’s something you’d really love to see!

[Securing Antarctica's Environmental Future @saef_arc]

📅 Save the date!

The Australian Antarctic Research Conference is being held 19 - 22 November and everyone in the Australian Antarctic community is invited.

Please share!

[The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand @ConversationEDU]

Isn't the ozone hole closing? Yes – but it's lasted longer than normal in recent years.

As @Antarcticmoss (@UOW) + colleagues (@UCNZ) explain, that means Antarctica's plants and animals are being hit with much higher UV levels in summer. https://t.co/DjbhRXkIHv

@doctormcdougall Yep, I have for about 25 years. I start and finish every day out there, nothing beats it
