Summary: To support the Platform’s midterm review, in early 2022 the ISP assessed the performance of the Platform to date, the research activities planned for the remainder of the current contract, and what a second tranche of funding should consider.
Summary: Updates from our teams on the field, research highlights from 2021/22, and save the date for the New Zealand – Australia Antarctic Science Conference 2023.
Summary: New Zealand is one of 12 original signatories to the Antarctic Treaty (signed in 1959), and these annual international meetings are a key target for the Platform’s research data, findings and new understandings.
Summary: The Antarctic Science Platform is collaborating across New Zealand and with other nations to share and deploy resources into Antarctica and the Southern Ocean.
Summary: To understand what Antarctic ecosystems may look like in a warming world, it’s critical to first comprehensively understand the current-day biodiversity and biogeography.
