Mysteries of colourful icebergs By Kaihe Yamazaki Antarctica’s icebergs are famous for their brilliant whites and blues from glacier ice (compacted snow turns blue as air bubbles are expelled), but a few stand out in startling colours like green, brown, black and even marbled, as we just witnessed at the Denman Glacier ice front a […]
OPPORTUNITIES The Centre is looking for 35 postdoctoral researchers and more than 20 PhD students. The current opportunities are listed below. The Centre is committed to establishing a diverse and supportive team-positions are generally open to applicants from both within Australia and overseas. Early career researchers (ECRs), including PhD students, will be supported by a […]
Into the ice By Claire Yung During the first few weeks of the Denman Marine Voyage, we have seen sea ice in a variety of shapes and forms. Many of us stood at the windows of the observation lounge to see the RSV Nuyina first glide from the open ocean into a thick covering of […]
PROGRAM 1 Circum Antarctic and East Antarctic Because of sheer size, Antarctica and the Southern Ocean play a disproportionately important role in modulating global sea level and Earth’s carbon cycle. Incorporating outputs from the other programs, Program 1 will improve predictions of how sea level and the carbon cycle will be affected in the future […]
Denman Glacier, how deep is your continental shelf? By Katharina Hochmuth The Denman Marine Voyage is not only the first dedicated marine science voyage on our new home the RSV Nuyina, but we are also sailing to places where few ships have been in the past. Our main research area, the Denman Glacier, has been […]
PROGRAM 2 Regional East Antarctic and its Provinces The imprint of anthropogenic climate change on Antarctica and the Southern Ocean has revealed a pronounced asymmetry between West and East Antarctica, with distinct differences in air and sea-surface temperature, sea-ice changes, and ice shelf meltwater rates. This program will explore the causal linkages between the atmosphere, ocean, and […]
Revealed in a rock dredge By Jo Whittaker Anticipation was high as the first dredge of the Denman Marine Voyage was deployed to a water depth of 2700 metres on the steep eastern slope of the Eastern Bruce Rise. Waiting for a dredge to come up is always exciting as we never know if there will be […]
PROGRAM 3 Sub-regional and Regional Antarctic Margins This Program will focus on understanding the response of the ice sheet and climate system to climate change for areas understood to be vulnerable to rapid deglaciation. The Program will focus on integration knowledge gained from the ice-sheet accumulation basins to continental shelf break. We will use existing […]
Voyage of discovery in modern times By Craig Johnson It’s -22 °C chill factor outside, the water is -1.75 °C, and for the last half-hour the ship has been manoeuvring to avoid ice bergs. I’m cosy in shirt sleeves, sitting in a comfortable chair in the science operations room, and with my two colleagues am […]
