And everybody else celebrate we're going to join Dr Karl I don't in the South Atlantic in fact and on top I wonder if he is there I always wonder if he's if he's there we're doing these exciting new cups Hello. Hello to Herat and I have 3 fabulous guests with me today and during the week I would out and flipped on the OSS which is called a weird thing here's a slab if you didn't say slipped you said celeb but. I slipped on the office and. Actually quite liked Yuri's Normally they have a B.B. Bag which is short for people like baggy cube of plastic only slightly bigger than yourself and you sleep on the real into that then you sleep and I had look cerise you look very 1st class I had something big enough for 2 people a pole a tent and on the floor there was plastic the very thin plastic and then on that a bit of sheepskin and then I laid my sleeping bag on that and I could feel the cold seeping through cause basically inside something that was colder than the in sot of your fridge and I had to put on lots of clothes during the lot to warm up and when I woke up in the morning by water bottle had frozen solid and I mention this to some my colleagues he said it didn't put in Saudi sleeping bag. And then we've been hit by this blisse it said last visit we've been hitting 65 knots and up gusting and I was out loading a hydrogen balloon with a beak that people lost not be the logical people and coming back it was blowing out of my face. And I found that I was getting an icecream headache across my forward from the wind blowing on me it's a modest 102 but hitting 65 knots and these 2 eyes of walking in the wind What is that you simply lean forward as far as you can at the top in the hips and the other was given to be one of the right he's sure to try to people who said you follow the penguin method say use sort of bed you in the thrust of pelvis forward try to walk forward the center of gravity or you'll faded surprisingly it cause I did actually work so that's why I'm still here because the little slip and his closed the right of way down so he can't get out of to for that I'm just going to show you where you were not expecting to be there so this is our benefit you're there for another week . It isn't even to Bob It will be going around talking to some of the people here so I have AS guess with me 3 people who could be categorized One way is to females in a bio or another way is to try to try to people or scientists so let me introduce the 1st one so this is Sheryl about up who went to private school high school training in big so what do you try to share. As a diesel mechanic on heavy equipment and the question for you without notice rod in Australia we wouldn't waste our top saying the whole would days old mechanic What a waste of time we would call him by what we call a broad. We should get there no not closely you you think. Right these will. Yeah and so she is a deep hole of people who have multiple jobs and so she's a deep field leader for let me just try and take you through that so she's being on a tricky big huge tractor so he towing a 60000 loaded how far. Did you go how long was this trick that big were. 1100 kilometers and to an elevation of around 11000 feet and how many kilometers could you do they are striking the 60 tough load with your pick industrial grade Caterpillar Tractor the version called the. Challenger which has rubber tracks have hockey go weight and to do around 100 kilometers a day that have any of that take you stand it 8 o'clock in the morning stop for about one hour and finish driving at 8 30 am not a 12 hour day then you would you be able to go to sleep would you have to look after your vehicles then you'd have to Geiser and we feel the vehicles check the vehicles check you pretty much get everything ready. And have dinner and then you could go to bed rot and then you have a thing called a watch that can you describe what after for the audience you probably have experience it so what is when you go to have a little blowing and a light out is pretty much when you least like surface and Horizon definition the land the ground pretty much blend straight into the sky and it's really hard to have any reference so when you driving at times it's hard to know that you're even moving the G.P.S. Is your friend what you say already when you don't even know that you've moved. But surely you can a recap of the what the accelerator on at the foot of the accelerator the a tech I was tidy but if you look at the wind. Yeah you got my reference even is nothing to eat going past or anything like that sometimes jogging and snow greatly machine he could have stopped and the and you hear that noise guy you need to look at the G.P.S. To make so you actually wow and say you've been the filleted which means that you are responsible for the whole team and you have to keep everybody a law about A by the way road ahead a story about how there was a storm at the place where there were 2 buildings a few videos apart from each other and during that watch out somebody would from one building to the other and something got hit by a big gust of wind got blood between the get out into the snow and then was totally disoriented and a few meters from the building decide to go in one direction we took it to be the wrong direction stopped after 12 steps came back in what they thought was the other direction and up nowhere and then hunkered down to do a little pool hid in the snow just turned to pole and luckily was rescued 510 bodies for the building after 6 hours took that long for success the father and that was still alive at the end of it so this is these are the sort of hall stall conditions with Sharon goes out and is responsible for a whole bunch of people that's raising them you say 5 you present hunters from the building Foster to admit is yes there's another case of with somebody who's driving a thing called a Haglund says think about the cock hold a meet and so what you've got is something with that footprint on the ground but 3 talks Hala it's got tracks so he saw to what I left on a rod is quite small he had to bite his boss I 3 made it to fairly high 40 have 50 S with how off a foot or 6 inches of reinforced Kev law so for fools of the snow into the office and his last little last photo I doubt it won't splinter and so he was driving these through a total water could not recognize anything was just following the G.P.S. And following the G.P.S. He parked 6 meters or so from a building couldn't see. The building and somebody had to come out in one of these huge challenge of tractors and then because I was very high off the ground 3 metres up see him and they dragged me to that and then drive around to the back of the police to take him and he couldn't get from the building through the of the vehicle to the building which is only 6 metres away goodness sake there's a sort of varmint and people used to do this without tractors and all that sort of . Scary stuff to have you know as you beat down he Sharon I've come down every summer since 2002 he went to his as a mechanic Raj and he questions doctor wrote well what I was wondering was whether our viewers and our listeners would have any questions 85058 for your text because now we know Dr Karl is with us again from the Antarctic would like to know obviously we'd like your questions about what it's like down there perhaps you've got a question for Sharon about how you maintain these vehicles you know in these extreme conditions. And maybe you want to hear more about her adventures on these long distance tracks but I'll also want to know by the way the phone number is 08085 night 09693 so that's all obviously terribly useful to up all night B.B.C. Dot SEO dot U.K. But as I say I'll be thinking bring questions that have to do with Target maybe like tell us who else you go with. exactly we have talk to catherick king who 2 mos the process has goal of dharavi in the water they're out here which is absolutely also she's in then bar bid to thaw it is the code toxicologist hematoma view he kept through i've pain town hey if she is May fit 10 some us so some of that as pain working on moraine program side some of the die programs that you mentioned and other times i've been he working in the tress roelant so all environment so this one doing they see what do you dawud with of the ocean so i are our area very searches looking at the impacts of human activities in antarctica and particular contaminants unlikely general i should weiss material side that that particular projects where else diving it was looking at and auld why stips sought in i toss here in here where we are and looking at the impacts at that had on marang community so we were under the os diving to say what was their weather was different from control sots a wife from match the the referees tape you would you be wearying with room dry who definitely not very much a high industrial draw i see age so the border dan here is monis want when i to curries it's phrasing obviously yeah sorry where really thick heavy raba say should the and globs mitten globs very hard to mineta in nice sort of in nice sort of seeds yeah and yeah and short dought times than lawn prep time sir you know my we 3 hours to do a half an hour dive because just gearing up into all that heavy kiya on testing at since all surface a plots not schema tanks and so was surface a postes i get up up on on top saud on the osce drilling the hallman the os mind shining that that oss hall so that we can come in and out saif play doing all the coms tech so we can tote with paper want top saud thirds thieves with anything that you do involve a huge will preparation is jude of sibley you will get to dured you do would but you go to good use Of ready many different ways Yeah absolutely so what sort of stuff are you looking for this year you trip down yes this year I'm working on a soil mark right by diversity project that is stressful environments here we don't have firing plants we've got muscles we've got lichens we've got transfer lousy and within ICE substrates we have microorganisms living so at the at the bacterial stage bacterial end of things up to my current target cried Suborder bears all the right silly things like that they're the things that we're targeting to look at the sensitivity to contaminants on land so there's now a big in this area of Antarctica there's not really be insects or things to work with the biggest thing we have to work with is point 2 of a mill and along the biggest lead creature apart from a pretty good guess to have a little bit of all that's wrong so Mark Scott example looking at the truly a hostile bar with you think the the valve put to a little bit of Dr wrote that is amazing really and through it and Catherine when when the best practice in the park sometime a problem people take the rubbish home with them or they take it away you know when you're on the beach right there with you or you take it away in the supposed safely how does how does that work and Antarctica are actually rubbish dumps in and out. Sorry when I talk about rubbish times I'm talking about legacy tapes prior to the end touchy trades environmental protocol or the merger of science and Richard protocol is not a nonny one that was signed off. All nations operating Antarctica were allowed to live there since that time all nations now tight why stop at Bicycling all stations are cleaned up there why such as we've done here. Have to seize rubbish tips they all practice was a that to leave it on land and would get covered in snow would remind them become part of the environment or put on to say ice and hype it up blow out to the ice and was never seen of again down the bottom of the ocean floor or bench on say arse and sent out again side where they all practices absolutely Now that's China where much more conscious of environmental stewardship especially for the Australian programmers lighting that internationally actually for many years and now we return to Australia all. Bent and we recycle as much as possible obviously as well if we were going to the place called robbers hot with 3 of us stripped of the oil to study thought the heart the majority of the heart was a combination of sleeping quarters cooking in Kabul area which could be also used for sleeping there is a little area of the saw to show the toilet there was a plastic box with the scrawled cap about one football one football one photo 30 feet of it is both $33430.00 said it is at the beginning it was hardly filled at all with any year and part of the year it was actually maybe half full of euro which was going to be screwed on and then brought back and in the Tour it was basically these toilets seated in a plastic bag the 2 would be then carried back at the head of the kit What do we do that would repeat back to the base station he having come back from 1015 kilometers from Rosewood to K.C. Yes So the human wiseguys into our search treatment. Why sort of treatment plant which is better than tertiary So it's better than some of the standards that we have back in Australia and other parts of the world and that's something that came into price a few years ago after we did an impact assessment to look at whether that was actually having an effect pumping out the surge or current stage of treatment and it was that sort of science that that led to us changing our policy in our operations to bring in a better treatment part and we're actually working towards 0 discharge in the future embrace cycling what are really not there yet but where we're not pumping out stuff that has that can have to mental effects on the right environment. Have the story. When So a lot of a lot of our research is is that is driven to actually change how we do things down he saw the Weist the why steeper says Manson and the search treatment part of the syringe surge work it says meant was was all part of that. But when you're when you're really remediating. As they call it you know further further up you know in northern latitudes when you're doing that you must do it a very different because you can sort of scrape off the top soil and get rid of it anywhere it's your kind of stuck with it. Yeah absolutely and soil environments in Antarctica really rare this lesson point 5 percent of the continent is as expire as Solomon rocks it's not a habitat you want to Louisa we absolutely don't want to dig have the digging a hole approach of tying up the soil and bring the contaminated soil and bring it home to triage so what we do have here implies that is quite a comprehensive remediation program we've been running for the past 10 years or so I where we actually use the natural microbes that are present in the soil just that work very slowly obviously they're very cold temperatures and what we do is we add water we had nutrients we warmed up a bit and by Paul's such the metabolism increases and I can describe the hotter comets much quicker so we're using the natural. The here to actually do the work for us. Got a question you haven't entered and. We better find out who that is. All of the people down here have multiple depth is to them so they have a combination of being skilled and adept in a chosen field for which they have been brought down here and they self-motivated but also they have the building to get on with other people but also as we saw with Sharon that they have to do all sorts of things so just in chambers has been through a career involving 5 star hotels Michelin starred risk restaurants etc as a shift cooking for famous rock bands would that be but all of my gosh and has run a successful award winning restaurants 3 seasons so I'm not even a full sob of a couple about them just a week ro 2 weeks 3 said 3 with his season's most and by dive a space of a quarry all and and with a here and also a 6 month stint with the ED talked to people with Scott Base and has on occasion this shows a degree of skill people have doubt he has filled in the past as number 2 that means used the Bhagavad Mr Justin Chambers a whole Dr Justin and a good idea. So who you say this was your fame will you know lead to a lot to say just now that's a right what happened on the right down here you know what happens down here stays down here. We can throw at Madonna for sure absolutely Queen Deep Purple chimeric why Blondie shifts was always chefs for them when I was based and the U.K. There in London and the winner in Europe and touring with him and I was Wow So did you get work for 2 o'clock in the morning to have a. Big it was Shawn these tall. You cannot it was the only time I was working out was twice and that was the prince to 21 nights that was worth it is a bit of a legend I wouldn't mind any time OK right the question was just very very impressed was done for winter's pole you know why why on earth you know aren't you Shafiq and I don't know Barbados or something like that what's the attraction. Well Barbados does sound very tempting right now by stone looking out the window. I guess for a lot of us down here the and how to get it into our blood the ice gets in through our skin and it's sort of stays there. Since the 1st time I came down and was just I'm thrilled and amazed by the whole continent and the people and and the work that goes on down here of always just want to be a part of it so. There will be a time we'll have to give it up but at the moment here I am. And so what was it like being. That suddenly the buck stops with you if anything goes wrong you have to fix it and you have to make sure that in fact he set up so that nothing does go wrong yeah Will the number ones that they send down help with that so the number ones the station late is. Pretty damn good people there that got everything salted so when I do slip into that role when I did slip into that row they almost had everything covered and sometimes I would be leaving station and so there are charge of the station should something go wrong but everybody is a professional down here and they're in their chosen field so it is not actually anything to worry about if the generators break down. Fix it if a plant breaks down we've got the days as etc So there's not that much to to worry about though on one occasion now station later decided to go off and have 2 days' rest at the end of summer and yeah. And the Chinese ship enters the harbor what exactly these you long which they can come in and unannounced and enter the harbor and they called up Davis and I want to speak to whoever's in charge you know my heart starts pumping and here I am in the kitchen cooking dinner with the opera not that often and find a Chinese interpreter and entered the ship came in and now we had a good time of the next few days played soccer on the beach with them yes interesting wrote that this is to be a free to change between the staff of the bases in Iraq you know we've sometimes had the Chinese flag flying Swedish flag and the flag and they kind of swap few with each other all the fuel is very hard to bring in say don't give away all your hard carried fuel but this is a great deal of cooperation seems to be totally apolitical as opposed to person level down here and models really as well listen 85058 I'd love to know your questions for our 3 guests we've got the deep field leader Sharon was brought up who is an expert in the mechanics of dealing with the calls in these demonic conditions we've got just in chambers who've just talked to who's station staff and boy what a chef by all accounts the environmental scientist Dr Catherine King who is looking at the effect of human activities on the eco spear around the base there and I'd love to have your questions I have a couple I'm going to get into one I think straightaway this is actually for. Sharon from. Our who says did you say that all these amazing vehicles are diesel powered If so Sharon technical question how do you stop the diesel from waxing. A strain and tonic division has a special They call it it's a baby which is a special and tonic blend feel so it can it will continue working colder temperatures I think it's around down to minus 40 or modest 45 something like that and then and other conditions they have used. Which is aviation turbine kerosene as well so it can run vehicles at lower temperatures but you think because tomatoes 40 but you see temperatures as low as cold as you say on this 50 isn't that a little bit what happens if you thought right about is 40 what we ended up doing we would actually have like I hated electric blanket like you'd have when you sleep but not so are you draft electric blanket around the fuel tank. To keep the fuel wore old half was a very caring. Yeah wrap the blanket around keep it warm have a not and then just refuel the vehicles with the tip when the temperature is at a in the field at a woman temp at this works in front of is that reversible so once it works is it really low temperature if you would up with the work through the roof you're stuck with it forever now if that happens you've got a lot pull the fuel filters off the machines clean all the fuel lines out everything and get rid of everything that it's gummed up kind of thing. So it is a study actually what was it was it works with the reversible studies that way it was reversible if we raise the temperature here if you raise it up yeah OK. Wow Well I'm just imagining there you must have a pretty big. Facility must have lots of garbage is where you can do all those who are because you can't really do outside you're pretty much stuck inside and you've got to stay in a heated environment. A bit of both when I worked at the bases we have workshops and stuff and you can do a lot of the work inside when you're in a date field camp you don't have a workshop so you have to do all your work outside and then when I work for the French atomic program they prepare all their Treves vehicles the challenges and everything outside they don't actually have a workshop so you do you know you work at side you travel with the French people so you all these 1200 Kilby to traverse you speak French to be the 1st people speak English not very many Well how do they warn you that something toward happened the if you delete recall that you didn't speak French they didn't speak English you'd listen very carefully for a night and a lot of times I'd be saying you know quite a lot so you learned to pick up on the keys so when they were. Shot all of us yeah pretty much alike. But we can we'll spend the next couple of minutes imagining get excited French engineers saying things are going badly wrong here Sharon. Will be back with you think about questions for Sharma boarded deep field leader think about cooking in this environment and getting fresh food and how how exciting that must be when when the fresh food arrives for Justin Chambers the stations. Think about the environmental impact that these stations have for Dr Catherine King will be back in a couple minutes time just after half past 3. On digital B.B.C. Science street. This is B.B.C.

Against West Indies by 6 wickets completing their highest ever O.D.I. Run chase they reached the 361 run target with 8 balls remaining His Captain Owen Morgan but all we came back really well I thought for a long time today the West Indies looked like posting 38400 and a pagan back to 360 was supposed kept us in the game because when you probably did with the short sided you would feel like a 320 A 330 chase as opposed to a flight of 360 despite having 2 penalties given against them and going down to 10 men a man just a city managed to come out on top against the in the Champions League they won the 1st like $32.00 despite trailing $21.00 for most of the game it was thanks to late goals by Lee Rossana and Raheem Sterling manager Pep Guardiola says he's got no issue with the referee's decisions it's penalty the last is against Liverpool in a situation with a change so it's penalty.

M We're back with Dr Karl live from the Australian station in the car with his guests the environmental scientist Dr Kathy King the station chef Justin Chambers and the deep field leader Sharon. Before we go on just a definition of terms Carl every temperature you are giving is in Celsius right that is correct and just had the winds gusting now the average we did 5 knots and disgusting up to 75 and the rule of thumb is that you can withstand one weekend for each kilogram of body white so if you weigh 60 kilograms might 60 now if you limit 70 and 50 but really. We did fold over there. You can get very messy and how are the structures so they are they rocking a little bit in this kind of when there are they rock solid as a visitor or noticing is that. Up to about 50 knots I don't hear a thing and about 50 knots there's definitely through the through the walls that are maybe 3 causes me to think and the triple glazing I could hear something structure Sharon anybody sounds like a rumbling but the structure seemed quite solid and it bolted in a very heavy. We don't that's ceased to be OK We've had no idea not that there's been $150.00 cases some of wind early is this year but this is the structure quite fun which is to us it week just like humans yet anyway that question about the temperature came from Brian in Chipping Norton who notes that minus far to the temperature is actually the same other minus 4 to the time of the same in Celsius and Fahrenheit. Didn't stop to think because we don't get down to minus 4 to very much. Now this is a bit of a scientific joke you don't have to tell with a theory if it bothers for you because it does say this with a cross-eyed right the scientific job that has all the products there so funny right let's have a call calling us on our way 590-9693 as Brian who's calling us from Stockton on Tees Hello Brian good morning. And what I question yeah it's about how cold it gets off untucked you get when you want to say look we don't really do we know Coakley gets to stay liquid and how do the creatures that live beneath cope with so temperature. Well I think that everybody here has jumped into the ocean not in protective gear so your your go shared 1st yeah. Went to twice and done the made to swim T. Times it's pretty weary what just did normal by this time is just all of yeah yeah no not if it is of the parade just a little bit of dog that's OK yeah don't you lost in there. I guess it just depends on the pessimism people areon it out pretty quick but you. Stayed in for a little on the car even the how long but remember it felt great when I got out that you have it all scripted like yes definitely OK then yeah yeah yeah I have done a couple of winters the 1st winter I went to the ice with a bit of bravado and said I'm going to say how long I can actually stay in this little square hole of water and I managed a minute and when I was a whole minute a whole minute and when I tried to exit I did notice that there's a lot of fatigue and instead of being up for a walk up the stairs that have been chiseled up by the. I had to crawl out really I was fond I could breathe everything was good but I just felt very weak so the next year or 2 lousy after a minute yeah. The next year was very simple and out you know took of already done out of you know I don't have to show anyone just living just just a little bit a bit of dollars or just some shorts and then McQuarrie on and subantarctic where the temperature is not as low as it gets down here you know modest to what it was it's a round 3 minus sorry 3 to 5 degrees because of the right positive yet but there's wind chill and so on the day that we had a mid went to swim it was around 0 and it was blowing probably $2530.00 knots you would a wind chill of around 10 to 15 now McCoury on and as long. Smith between this and the station breaks it up a little bit and in midwinter you run to one side of the island 1st one because we're tough 7 tactic as opposed to the Antarctic We also have another some of the other so they aren't now is what it is. Taught we don't know that you run over there and then you run across the isthmus and you jump in the other ski the base skin and the wind chills now I'm sporting a similar haircut to you via a show back and saw a short everywhere actually and for the 1st time having done to him it with the swimmers were at the get a little bit of an ice cream here running between those 2 areas of the ocean over the years Smith is one of the extremely severe ice cream headache Well I had one last thought when I was walking back from the Hodges and blued with the 64. We got the up to that I had to put my hope for a forward to stop the Oscar hit a happening that would away with the better half of it and certainly does have to use both hands and well then doc to get care for. You also have jumped the wardrobe in your swimming cause these well to think they print yet not jumped in the water in many things actually a sign a praying thing one of them dross it's being another and just cause I think. That's never been it went as I've never been lucky enough to do went to bed on a stride I at all the stations we typically do each additionally have a cricket match we have a barbecue and we have a swim sought by and I will say that it's I this case. As well and had you go did you get DOS cream heyday I got. You yeah tinkly I getting they are probably last lesson in minutes I can probably strike out about 95 strikes and I come back and I'm pretty. Well the war dead he gets there the model one point I so the bookstop freezing thier own to the water goes to modest. Put it it doesn't get colder than that because the salt stops which would do that and you have circulation happening and when I jumped into the Rossi I just had a rubber of my tummy or floated in the water for a bit deliberately don't do anything that was the why of the road 13 off to the saw I thought of lifting for going he going. To those for you the water in the road to revive Tommy they pulled me back with a rope and the fate of it was terrible last critic so bad that I being paranoid person thought I had a stroke and then as I got close to the lateral the back of the ship had equal strength of all lift and Rod had legs so you had to have a stroke just had thoughts give it a bit about both my daughter and I had this experience we came out we walked out of the Big of the boat that we thought who was going to supply is a really sharp rocks and then. Later out we warmed up and had a shell if jobs a bit we both Shipley with into 20 minute reflection every we just in bed shivering or Chrisy and this is about an hour after we bring in the yeah so we because I think some of the fish they are here actually. Really aren't adapted to withstand life in freezing What are you on a squadron itineraries because that's where the fish are they are here for the whole laws yes I think we actually humans will freeze to death within about 5 to 10 minutes if they are submerged by that long but the animals that live in the ice down here he did think that mana spawn point out is is quite hot conditions but actually it's size stable that their physiology is adapted so well so that that's actually that's actually quite easy for them so in the tropics you might have temperature ranges of faith danger grace that they have to tolerate 3 during the different seasons of the air or in temperate regions especially But here they're just they're just receiving that modest 1.8 degrees constantly through the. Actually they have got Holly chain physiology to kite with that toxicologist mention the antifreeze in the fish and other physiological mechanisms of some of the inverter but they're really I would withstand that very well they're very slight growing as a result of that because their metabolism is really really really slow we have a nominal Ninus gigantism so we had these gigantism so I am or an inveterate Seagrave he said we have see spot as which back in back in Tasmania where where I'm from or in Australia then the size you think in out here the size if you feast so we have things that can live and grow we can't see actions that are 100 years old whereas back when I'm not a 5 to 10 yeas This is amazing thought that you've given me that because the temperature is so stable models were put out it will have to do that they're out of billions of years of evolution and you can get beautifully cues to surviving in that narrow temperature I should have really thought of it today absolutely richly diddly throated a bit of evolutionary biology to this world yeah you very much and that's possibly a reason mots. Climate change and warming is and I should say if it Tyson is animals here are particularly vulnerable because I used to die Stiva conditions they're not used to China and this is a really good thermometer the mount is not the right word a really good indicator of the 1st effects of climate change and impacts it can have it or wrote Catherine thank you very much will keep you on though because Bryan that was progressive in the disco everybody everybody going this is from George from he's like us and he says I believe that because a solar. But the Arctic is a floating ice mass why this difference and what stops the Arctic ice from bobbing about all over the place and breaking up by smashing into the ceramic Lama says he says also I believe the only word species common to both the Antarctic the Arctic seal So for example why do. Polar bears also live in the Antarctic and penguins also live in the Arctic so a pretty wide ranging question and. Any thoughts for for George. But I'll start off and in the can take over oc Dick comes from an ancient Latin would also a Greek would to us extreme north referring to the pay is that lived up there so Arctic means with the bays Ah and that is as George said a small amount of OSS mostly floating on water but at the edges in some cases to the door of foster the aide to the lad so small amount of OSS floating on water and surrounded by a lot of lead close in where is the adhoc the is the opposite has no pole is has a huge amount of OSS sitting on land which has been depressed by the way to the OS and if you are able to magically remove the 20000000 square kilometers of ice just instantly you'd see that there would be water and land underneath all of the archipelago and given enough top the land within rawer to some degree with the without the weight of the above it so it's basically classified as ice sitting on land with a huge amount of water around it so if you have the equator 0 degrees and the pole at 90 in the southern hemisphere the land that he comes down to about $45.00 degrees was in the northern hemisphere it goes up to $50.60 in more so and you got to go a little Toddy pointy bits of light at the tips of a stride yourself America and Africa and then you've got the weed the water the huge expanse of water and the winds can go around and around and what was it he was saying Justin about. That there's always a number of storms going around you know just roughly pull pox. If you go here of the Arctic Yeah if you if you do have a look at the satellite images you always see storms rolling around in Target never does it come so there's a half dozen or so exactly usually around the half dozen Mark and I just keep going around around and he will get rid of so you have the roaring forty's the furious fifty's or the screaming sixty's so they very very different from each other why did the polar bears not come Deb he gives you the pole a big came from the lead then moved to the door. Not sure for the question What was the other question is asking this 15 part question he has I know I know a bit more about. You know why dope or good they are more than thing more about the animals than. The. More about the animals and why we have different spaces up in the north versus in the southern Pol the region that's dispersal bicycle vault on different land masses and there's 9 mines for Paul they actually get from the North Pole to the south and as one means for a non-flying but to get and well to guide will not not find that I could transport I could go through the I should but I can't get through that critical tropical right in the penguin So that's why they haven't dispersed for the North Wind but you brought the conditions in the North Pole in the South Pole would see his T. Top's those different types of animals quite well they just don't have the means of getting there but we do have penguins in the collapse because the court house weighs different spaces this isn't Yeah yes the distribution of the Southern Ocean penguins is creeping up. To acting to different environments but they're never going to make it to the tropics and in a short time and then I think within the club because you're a different plane a different Yeah Tippett Yeah. Well you have the African penguin sick a lot I guess penguins. They're from a different family of penguins and that specific they adapted to tropical regions we never say that visiting this area at all OK. Even temperate regions are very much tropical by saying that dissipation is quite narrow I think you have a question for Mick who's in Lincoln and he says How are you all assessed medically before you come and how do you deal with surgical American cities like serious trauma or up and. Well interesting Joe just the. Level of his personality and I'll try to the doctor but he's had to belittle training that I haven't had so he can lead you into that doctor just thank you Dr Co Yes So we. Are well trained before we come down well assessed medically anybody that has any sort of issue unfortunately won't make it down to Antartica So when we do actually make it down we do. We do feel quite special because of that mentally were assessed as well to make sure that we're within that range we were actually not sure what that range is people put their hand up to come down to and you know we don't know whether it's saying or or the other way. And so part of the training that I undertook before I 1st came down many years ago was a medical training for anesthetics of course and that. That's to assist with the doctor down here on station we have 4 people who are trying up with a medical and should be in a major emergency issues the doctor then has a team to call on to assist as well as other means of assistance phone video hookups situ with experts in Australia in the rest of the world so you can actually use one of the ethic machines Absolutely yes. But it would still be under the guidance of the doctors just to know that someone that is caused by the doctor sort of knows what to touch and I can point menorah direction and say what it is and we will go for it for my medical assessment I had to go through a stress test which is with they get you on a treadmill and then they crank the treadmill up with the heart high angles and keep get you walking at a constant speed and they start cranking up the speed and then they pick up the magic number and the magic number is your make maximum heart right and they work that out by getting the number 220 and they from that they thought tracked your eye so 220 Mind you I will make them hot right and then they crank you up to 80 percent of that and then I run you into it until something bad happens. And if you don't have the something bad happen then you can see OK so what they looking for is a set of E.C.G. Changes that Montreal hot electrical activity which under this specific set of circumstances is a really good indicator of mechanical block each of the arteries but no Normally you have to go in there and inject Dawei coming. Through the federal via the Ha So this is a really good mini go of it at the same time they do walk on this treadmill sweating away happily they put the jury on to an ultrasound probe and they look at the movies of your heart so that was part of my medical assessment process then the blood screen and then you have to go through a G.P. Tasters will have various other tests is there anything else you had just as you mentioned. Didn't do that no no to the prostate No no they used to do the prostate exam so it's not like we don't give them up at the moment but everyone is different is based on I know you saw someone you know who who applies who's in the mid twenty's will sort of you know. Be given a broad medical exam and then the older you get when you more susceptible certain things I will be looking for that when I they go through this so the stress test is a big one but if you're a doctor you are not going to alleviate Arctic with your appendix in fact you don't even going to get it you can be a medical doctor and if you want to come to the tactic you have to have your perfectly healthy appendix removed before you covered out and so now talk to the other guy was be motioning the loss of his perfectly functional appendix just so he could come down he said literally only the doctor has to have their critics removed . Here's a question there's definitely a question for Justin from Humphrey and throws brain who says Do they have food freezers on the base or do they just go outside and utilize in that surveillance. That is a great question it's a bit of both and it depends on the circumstance so on station we need temperature regulated food products we do put in a 2 a freezer because it will be minus 18 to $22.00 is this is this the standard for a freezer and that keeps our food. Safe longer when you go into the field like Sharon on her. Deep Field expeditions she then relies on the natural environment so she'll actually do yourself a little Kay. And one of the things we do we have learnt over the years is to protect the food from radiation so the radiation can actually get through the snow and seeing the food rotten So if you can manage to protect it from the sun's radiation and other influences it will last longer so yeah we do and I've got to say that you know often when I do the bike you know I put out sodden cools down quicker than it would back and. We chill factor as well. That great and what about fresh food I want to ask you this do you use hydroponics or Vatican farming or anything to grow salad on the base when you can't get a fresh delivery. Absolutely so we we get a resupply of food that should last us the year that includes fresh food things like potatoes. Onions eggs etc and we try to make those staples last a year and it can be done down here to the dry conditions but during the course of the summer season like us we actually use most of the nice produce such as tomatoes and cabbages except for so we have a hodgepodge except up it's very small but it's to supplement the dog we actually had a beautiful sell it to die from hydroponics the 1st we've had and I few weeks we have close to $100.00 people on station in the small hydroponics which is only a shipping container size would actually feed everyone every day so now and when it does come out it is a gift that we all appreciate and in Spain if you look at the pit of Spain that pots on to the minutes right in this huge area which is actually visible from space where they do massive undercover agriculture and in I fled they use the natural heat from the ground the geothermal heat to grow all of the fresh vegetables here we have a limited space limited budget if we had it money we could actually fit the system up to provide for fresh food all year round but in the companies have to do things like repair things that put dollars in the diesels have to do stuff so it's lower down on the priority written list that we don't have and if that supply of free heat as they do in Iceland.
