SWESNET from British Antarctic Survey provides a forecast of high energy electrons in the Earth’s radiation belts which can cause damage to satellites on orbit. These forecasts are used by satellite operators to take mitigating action.
SPACESTORM is a collaborative project to model space weather events and find ways to mitigate their effects on satellites.
Tracking and monitoring of seabirds e.g. wandering albatrosses and white-chinned petrels at South Georgia to support conservation.
THOR examined sedimentary record both offshore from the glacier and beneath the ice shelf, together with glacial landforms on the sea bed, to reconstruct past changes in ocean conditions and the glaciers response to these changes.
The international IceAGE project focuses on the collection of genetically useful material for DNA barcoding, population genetics and other molecular analyses of Icelandic marine animals.
SUBICE, the Sub-Antarctic – ice coring expedition, part of the international Antarctic Circumnavigation Expedition (ACE), successfully drilled several shallow ice cores, from five of the remote and globally significant sub-Antarctic islands.
The Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) has been operating as an international co-operative organisation for over 25 years, and has proved to be one of the most successful tools for studying dynamical processes in the Earth’s magnetosphere, ionosphere, and neutral atmosphere.
This project investigated the ice streams of West Antarctica’s Weddell Sea sector through airborne surveys.
The Antarctic Infrastructure Modernisation Programme (AIMP) Sustainability Strategy comprises eight major sustainability themes.
This project is creating a long-term framework for monitoring whale numbers and behaviour.
Using Antarctica as a ‘platform’ for simulating certain aspects of a manned spaceflight mission, this project will investigate how living in an isolated community during 24-hour winter darkness affects the health of Halley staff and their and ability to perform specific problem-solving functions.
The effects of long-term changes in the Earths magnetic field on the atmosphere understanding the past predicting the future.
