The European Marine Board was established in 1995 to facilitate enhanced cooperation between European marine science organizations towards the development of a common vision on the strategic research priorities for marine science in Europe. Members are either major national marine or oceanographic institutes, research funding agencies, or national consortia of universities with a strong marine research focus. In 2019, the European Marine Board represents 33 Member Organizations from 18 countries. The Board provides the essential components for transferring knowledge for leadership in marine research in Europe. Adopting a strategic role, the European Marine Board serves its member organizations by providing a forum within which marine research policy advice to national agencies and to the European Commission is developed, with the objective of promoting the establishment of the European Research Area.

Orientador: CMG (RM1) Leonardo Faria de Mattos Rio de Janeiro Escola de Guerra Naval 2019 2 AGRADECIMENTOS A minha esposa Nayara e meus filhos Felipe e Tomás pelo carinho, motivação e paciência dispensados durante a realização deste trabalho. Ao Capitão de Mar e Guerra Leonardo Faria de Mattos, meu orientador, pelas sugestões e intervenções extremamente profissionais, que foram de grande relevância para a realização deste estudo. 3 RESUMO O propósito da pesquisa foi identificar pontos de aderência do Tratado da Antártica, mais especificamente do Programa Antártico Australiano, com duas teorias das Relações Internacionais, opostas por definição: a Teoria Realista e a Teoria da Interdependência Complexa. A relevância do estudo reside na oportunidade de se entender como um programa de governo conquistou o apoio de sua sociedade e como ele obteve sucesso diante da ambiguidade do Tratado da Antártica, tendo em vista os interesses de alguns Estados em colonizar a região, bem como os de outros que enxergam a Antártica como uma região de cooperação internacional, livre, voltada exclusivamente para a pesquisa. Apesar da ambiguidade, o Tratado é considerado um caso de sucesso. Desde sua assinatura em 1959, a paz reinou na região, mesmo com a relativa ambiguidade nas visões, o que classifica o Tratado como um exemplo de sucesso dentre os regimes internacionais.

  • Assessment of Present and Planned Polar Research and Supply Vessels
    Assessment of Present and Planned Polar Research and Supply Vessels Candidate name: Felix Müller University of South-Eastern Norway Faculty of Technology, Natural Sciences and Maritime Sciences MASTER THESIS May 2018 Polar Research and Supply Vessels: Abstract 2 Abstract Polar research vessels are currently being planned or build by many nations engaged in polar science. This includes for example the British newbuilding RRS Sir David Attenborough and Australia’s RSV Nuyina. The study explores the field of Polar Research and Supply Vessels (PRSV) and investigates the possibilities of assessing their capabilities. An exploratory research approach is used to identifies sources of information and collects them into a database. Established models for performance assessment in the academic literature are presented. Links are drawn between those models, PSRV characteristics and the research field. An adapted model is created and applied on the data collected, providing the ability to assess capabilities of PRSV. The assessment is based on the four aspects size, icebreaking, logistic and science, each using several attributes from the database to provide a normalised score between 0 and 100. Data of five PRSV are used on this model and visualised in a radar diagram. Results show general applicability of the model and further development and refinement can result in a useful contribution for this focussed research field. Keywords: Exploratory Study, Polar Research and Supply Vessels, Capability Assessment, Icebreaking, Science, Logistic Polar Research and Supply Vessels: Acknowledgements 3 Acknowledgements Thank you Halvor Schøyen for being my supervisor during this thesis. Your encouraging and positive attitude towards my field of interests, even before this thesis started, is much appreciated.

  • The Australian Naval Architect
    Technical Meeting – 1 July 2020 Clive Evans, Maritime Systems Lead—Research Supply Icebreaker Project, Australian Antarctic Division, gave a presentation on RSV Nuyina: Australia’s New Icebreaking Research and Supply Vessel as a webinar hosted by Engineers Australia with Phil Helmore as MC on 1 July. This was our third webinar presentation, and attracted 250+ registrations, with 180+ actually participating on the evening. Introduction Clive began his presentation with a video introduction to the Australian Antarctic Program and the research and supply operations involved. This was followed with photos and more-detailed descriptions. Australia has three permanent research stations in Antarctica, at Casey, Davis and Mawson, and a permanent base on Macquarie Island, all of which have to be resupplied regularly with fuel, stores and solid cargo. Australian Antarctic Program stations (Map courtesy Australian Antarctic Program) Australian Antarctic station Casey (Photo courtesy Australian Antarctic Program) Aurora Australis resupplying Casey using landing craft (Photo courtesy David Barringhaus) Australian Antarctic station Davis (Photo courtesy Australian Antarctic Program) Aurora Australis resupplying Davis using helicopter (Photo courtesy William de Bruyn) Aurora Australis resupplying a new crane to Davis (Photo courtesy Mark Horstman) Australian Antarctic station Mawson (Photo courtesy Australian Antarctic Program) Aurora Australis resupplying Mawson (Photo courtesy Noel Tennant) Australian Antarctic station Macquarie Island (Photo courtesy Barry Becker) Aurora Australis resupplying Macquarie Island (Photo courtesy Jeremy Smith) Another task is for the transfer of expeditioners. Some arrive on an Airbus A319 which lands on the Wilkins runway close to Casey station, a four-hour flight from Hobart. However, most expeditioners arrive by ship, typically a ten-day trip, but can be delivered to any of the stations.

    AUSTRALIAN ANTARCTIC MAGAZINE ISSUE 33 2017 The Australian Antarctic Division, a Division of the Department of the Environment and Energy, leads Australia’s Antarctic program and seeks to advance Australia’s Antarctic interests in pursuit of its vision of having ‘Antarctica valued, protected and understood’. It does this by managing Australian government activity in Antarctica, providing transport and logistic support to Australia’s Antarctic research program, maintaining four permanent Australian research stations, and conducting scientific research programs both on land and in the Southern Ocean. Australia’s Antarctic national interests are to: • Preserve our sovereignty over the Australian Antarctic Territory, including our sovereign rights over the adjacent OPERATIONS offshore areas. 2 Welcome RSV Nuyina • Take advantage of the special opportunities Antarctica offers for scientific research. • Protect the Antarctic environment, having regard to its SCIENCE special qualities and effects on our region. 8 Cool cloud study • Maintain Antarctica’s freedom from strategic and/or political confrontation. • Be informed about and able to influence developments in a region geographically proximate to Australia. • Derive any reasonable economic benefits from living and non-living resources of the Antarctic (excluding deriving such benefits from mining and oil drilling). • Australian Antarctic Magazine is produced twice a year (June and December).
