Not only fauna and flora are attracting us but also the special physical and biogeochemical processes in these cold areas as, for instance, the strong reflection of solar radiation at ice and snow surfaces, the huge temperature contrast with respect to the tropics or the global atmospheric and oceanic circulation that is controlled by the polar regions. These processes are subject to fundamental changes which are even more intensified by anthropogenic influences. The Arctic, for example, is warming twice as fast as other regions on Earth. The serious changes of the polar regions and glaciers of the high mountains (the “third pole”) are closely connected to climate change. Thus, it is of utmost importance to strengthen an active research of the impact of climate change as well as to intensify public outreach in order to explain the consequences to the public. Every day scientists are recording data to capture the dynamics of these changes, to better understand the involved processes, to reconstruct them and enable a better prediction using appropriate models. Under the theme “Polar Systems under Pressure” the German Society of Polar Research (DGP) cordially welcomes you to the 27th International Polar Conference in Rostock, 25 to 29 March 2018. Experts from universities and research centres will discuss the state-of-the-art of polar sciences with polar teachers and interested laymen. The volume at hand comprises all abstracts which have been submitted to the 27th International Polar Conference. These contributions cover a huge variety of aspects, from the complex impact of climate change on the polar regions and high mountains, and their grounded and floating ice, to biodiversity, the change of food webs and social responsibility. Questions with regard to geological, geophysical and biological processes will be discussed, and the historic dimension of polar research will be debated. Teachers will report on the experiences made in polar regions and how these get incorporated into primary and secondary education. The colloquium of the priority programme of the German Research Foundation on “Antarctic research with comparative investigations in Arctic glaciated areas” (SPP 1158) will provide major contributions to answering open questions. The 27th International Polar Conference will be realized in close cooperation with the University of Rostock and the Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research. We would like to cordially thank both institutions for their generous support. Now enjoy reading the abstracts of the oral and poster presentations. We are looking forward to a fascinating programme with lively discussions and invite you all to join in when scientists of all disciplines and generations present their most recent research results on the cold regions of our planet. We hope for an inspiring exchange with everybody interested in polar research on “Polar Systems under Pressure”.

  • Title of Thesis: ABSTRACT CLASSIFYING BIAS
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: CLASSIFYING BIAS IN LARGE MULTILINGUAL CORPORA VIA CROWDSOURCING AND TOPIC MODELING Team BIASES: Brianna Caljean, Katherine Calvert, Ashley Chang, Elliot Frank, Rosana Garay Jáuregui, Geoffrey Palo, Ryan Rinker, Gareth Weakly, Nicolette Wolfrey, William Zhang Thesis Directed By: Dr. David Zajic, Ph.D. Our project extends previous algorithmic approaches to finding bias in large text corpora. We used multilingual topic modeling to examine language-specific bias in the English, Spanish, and Russian versions of Wikipedia. In particular, we placed Spanish articles discussing the Cold War on a Russian-English viewpoint spectrum based on similarity in topic distribution. We then crowdsourced human annotations of Spanish Wikipedia articles for comparison to the topic model. Our hypothesis was that human annotators and topic modeling algorithms would provide correlated results for bias. However, that was not the case. Our annotators indicated that humans were more perceptive of sentiment in article text than topic distribution, which suggests that our classifier provides a different perspective on a text’s bias.

  • Seabirds of Human Settlements in Antarctica: a Case Study of the Mirny Station
    CZECH POLAR REPORTS 11 (1): 98-113, 2021 Seabirds of human settlements in Antarctica: A case study of the Mirny Station Sergey Golubev Papanin Institute for Biology of Inland Waters, Russian Academy of Sciences, Borok, Nekouzskii raion, Yaroslavl oblast, 152742, Russia Abstract Antarctica is free of urbanisation, however, 40 year-round and 32 seasonal Antarctic stations operate there. The effects of such human settlements on Antarctic wildlife are insufficiently studied. The main aim of this study was to determine the organization of the bird population of the Mirny Station. The birds were observed on the coast of the Davis Sea in the Mirny (East Antarctica) from January 8, 2012 to January 7, 2013 and from January 9, 2015 to January 9, 2016. The observations were carried out mainly on the Radio and Komsomolsky nunataks (an area of about 0.5 km²). The duration of observations varied from 1 to 8 hours per day. From 1956 to 2016, 13 non-breeding bird species (orders Sphenisciformes, Procellariiformes, Charadriiformes) were recorded in the Mirny. The South polar skuas (Catharacta maccormicki) and Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) form the basis of the bird population. South polar skuas are most frequently recorded at the station. Less common are Brown skuas (Catharacta antarctica lonnbergi) and Adélie penguins. Adélie penguins, Wilson's storm petrels (Oceanites oceanicus), South polar and Brown skuas are seasonal residents, the other species are visitors. Adélie penguins, Emperor (Aptenodytes forsteri), Macaroni (Eudyptes chrysolophus) and Chinstrap penguins (Pygoscelis antarctica), Wilson's storm petrels, South polar and Brown skuas interacted with the station environment, using it for com- fortable behavior, feeding, molting, shelter from bad weather conditions, and possible breeding.
