  • Cumulated Bibliography of Biographies of Ocean Scientists Deborah Day, Scripps Institution of Oceanography Archives Revised December 3, 2001
    Cumulated Bibliography of Biographies of Ocean Scientists Deborah Day, Scripps Institution of Oceanography Archives Revised December 3, 2001. Preface This bibliography attempts to list all substantial autobiographies, biographies, festschrifts and obituaries of prominent oceanographers, marine biologists, fisheries scientists, and other scientists who worked in the marine environment published in journals and books after 1922, the publication date of Herdman’s Founders of Oceanography. The bibliography does not include newspaper obituaries, government documents, or citations to brief entries in general biographical sources. Items are listed alphabetically by author, and then chronologically by date of publication under a legend that includes the full name of the individual, his/her date of birth in European style(day, month in roman numeral, year), followed by his/her place of birth, then his date of death and place of death. Entries are in author-editor style following the Chicago Manual of Style (Chicago and London: University of Chicago Press, 14th ed., 1993). Citations are annotated to list the language if it is not obvious from the text. Annotations will also indicate if the citation includes a list of the scientist’s papers, if there is a relationship between the author of the citation and the scientist, or if the citation is written for a particular audience. This bibliography of biographies of scientists of the sea is based on Jacqueline Carpine-Lancre’s bibliography of biographies first published annually beginning with issue 4 of the History of Oceanography Newsletter (September 1992). It was supplemented by a bibliography maintained by Eric L. Mills and citations in the biographical files of the Archives of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UCSD.

Of a to− tal of 60 samples, 554 colonies of fungi belonging to 19 genera were identified. Colonies of the genus Cladosporium, Penicillium and non−sporulating fungus (Mycelia sterilia) domi− nated in the examined samples. The microbiological assessment of air for the presence of fungi was also conducted at two points in the station building and two others outside the sta− tion. A total of 175 fungal colonies belonging to six genera were isolated. Colonies of the ge− nus Penicillium were the commonest in the air samples. The potential epidemiological conse− quences for indigenous species as a result of unintentional transport of fungal propagules to the Antarctic biome are discussed in the light of rapid climate change in some parts of the Ant− arctic and adaptation of fungi to extreme conditions.

  • Parallel Precedents for the Antarctic Treaty Cornelia Lüdecke
    Parallel Precedents for the Antarctic Treaty Cornelia Lüdecke INTRODUCTION Uninhabited and remote regions were claimed by a nation when their eco- nomic, political, or military values were realized. Examples from the North- ern and Southern hemispheres show various approaches on how to treat claims among rivaling states. The archipelago of Svalbard in the High Arctic and Ant- arctica are very good examples for managing uninhabited spaces. Whereas the exploration of Svalbard comprises about 300 years of development, Antarctica was not entered before the end of the nineteenth century. Obviously, it took much more time to settle the ownership of the archipelago in the so-called Sval- bard Treaty of 1920 than to find a solution for Antarctica and the existence of overlapping territorial claims by adopting the Antarctic Treaty of 1959. Why was the development at the southern continent so much faster? What is the es- sential difference between the situations obtaining in the two hemispheres? Was there a transposition of experiences from north to south? And did the Svalbard Treaty help to construct the Antarctic Treaty? Answers to these questions will be given by the analysis of single periods in the history of polar research, scientific networks, and special intergovernmental and nongovernmental organizations with concomitant scientific or economic interests that merged in the twentieth century to arrange exploration and exploitation of polar regions on an interna- tional basis. EXPLORATION AND SCIENCE BEFORE WORLD WAR I SVALBARD After the era of whaling around the archipelago of Svalbard, the Norwe- gians were the only ones to exploit the area economically, including fishing, Cornelia Lüdecke, SCAR History Action since the 1850s, whereas Swedish expeditions starting in the same decade were Group, Fernpaßstraße 3, D- 81373 Munich, the first to explore the interior of the islands (Liljequist, 1993; Holland, 1994; Germany.

  • Polar Explorers in "The Explorers' Club" Polarnicy W „Explorers' Club"
    Ryszard W. SCHRAMM POLISH POLAR STUDIES Podlaska 8/2,60-623 Poznań XXVI Polar Symposium POLAND /ff еШУУУ*! Lublin, June 1999 POLAR EXPLORERS IN "THE EXPLORERS' CLUB" POLARNICY W „EXPLORERS' CLUB" In 1904 Henry C. Walsh, the writer, war correspondent and explorer of the Arc- tic suggested founding an informal club uniting various explorers. On 17 October 1905 seven citizens of the United States submitted a signed proposal to found "The Explorers' Club." Among them, besides Walsh, there was another even more famous explorer Dr. Frederick A.Cook, the physician during the expedition of "Belgica" in which our explorers - Henryk Arctowski and Antoni Bolesław Dobrowolski took part. The first meeting of the club took place a week later. Its first president was General A. W. Greely and its secretary was H. C. Walsh. The English word "ex- plorer" has two meenings: 1 - explorer, 2 - discoverer. It is expressed clearly in Ar- ticle II of the "Bylaws of the Explorer Club" - "Club Goals": "The Explorers' Club is a multidisciplinary, professional society dedicated to the advancement of field re- search, scientific exploration, resource conservation and the ideal that it is vital to preserve the instinct to explore." Therefore the range of E.C. members is wide from scientists-theoreticians to sportmen. For the latter not only field activity but also a journalistic one is important. In the first years of the Club activity the explorers played a predominant role in it. The second president of the Club was F. A. Cook (1907-1908) and then Robert E. Peary (1909-1911) elected again for two successive terms in 1913-1916.

  • SECTION THREE: Historic Sites and Monuments in Antarctica
    SECTION THREE: Historic Sites and Monuments in Antarctica The need to protect historic sites and monuments became apparent as the number of expeditions to the Antarctic increased. At the Seventh Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting it was agreed that a list of historic sites and monuments be created. So far 74 sites have been identified. All of them are monuments – human artifacts rather than areas – and many of them are in close proximity to scientific stations. Provision for protection of these sites is contained in Annex V, Article 8. Listed Historic Sites and Monuments may not be damaged, removed, or destroyed. 315 List of Historic Sites and Monuments Identified and Described by the Proposing Government or Governments 1. Flag mast erected in December 1965 at the South Geographical Pole by the First Argentine Overland Polar Expedition. 2. Rock cairn and plaques at Syowa Station (Lat 69°00’S, Long 39°35’E) in memory of Shin Fukushima, a member of the 4th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition, who died in October 1960 while performing official duties. The cairn was erected on 11 January 1961, by his colleagues. Some of his ashes repose in the cairn. 3. Rock cairn and plaque on Proclamation Island, Enderby Land, erected in January 1930 by Sir Douglas Mawson (Lat 65°51’S, Long 53°41’E) The cairn and plaque commemorate the landing on Proclamation Island of Sir Douglas Mawson with a party from the British, Australian and New Zealand Antarctic Research Expedition of 1929­ 31. 4. Station building to which a bust of V. I. Lenin is fixed, together with a plaque in memory of the conquest of the Pole of Inaccessibility by Soviet Antarctic explorers in 1958 (Lat 83°06’S, Long 54°58’E).
