Environmental DNA metabarcoding for monitoring metazoan biodiversity in Antarctic nearshore ecosystems

Our aim was to compare water and sediment as sources of environmental DNA (eDNA) to better characterise Antarctic benthic communities and further develop practical approaches for DNA-based biodiversity assessment in remote environments. We used a cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) metabarcoding approach to characterise metazoan communities in 26 nearshore sites across 12 locations (including Ellis Fjord, Warriner Channel, Hawker Channel, Abatus Bay, Powell Point, Shirokaya Bay, and Weddell Arm) in the Vestfold Hills (East Antarctica) based on DNA extracted from either sediment cores or filtered seawater. We detected a total of 99 metazoan species from 12 phyla (including nematodes, cnidaria, echinoderms, chordates, arthropods, annelids, rotifers and molluscs) across 26 sites, with similar numbers of species detected in sediment and water eDNA samples.

Stefansson Bay Satellite Image Map 1:100000

Satellite image map of Stefansson Bay, Kemp Land and Mac. Robertson Land, Antarctica. This map was produced for the Australian Antarctic Division by AUSLIG (now Geoscience Australia) Commercial, in Australia, in 1992.  The map is at a scale of 1:100000, and was produced from Landsat TM scenes (WRS 139-107, 137-107). It is projected on a Transverse Mercator projection, and shows glaciers/ice shelves, penguin colonies, refuge/depots, and gives some historical text information. The map has both geographical and UTM co-ordinates.

ANARE Health Register

The ANARE Health Register, which has been in operation since 1987, is designed to gather, store, analyse and report on all health related events occurring in the ANARE population. The principal aims of the project are to:

quantify the occurrence of ill health in Antarctic personnel.
compare the incidence rates with those in the domestic population.
assess any trends in health events.
identify high risk groups, in order to modify conditions accordingly.
assess the role of pre-existing health conditions.
examine the causes of injury.
quantify the procedures performed and drugs administered.

The results of all medical consultations are coded according to the International Classification of Diseases and analysed on both a monthly and an annual basis in order to assess any emerging trends. In addition to serving as a long-term data base for epidemiological studies, the Health Register is proving to be a useful tool in the day-to-day operations of the Polar Medicine Branch of the Australian Antarctic Division.

Aurora Australis Voyage 6 (AAMBER2) 1990-91 Pelagic Fish Data

This dataset contains the data from Voyage 6 1990-91 of the Aurora Australis. The observations were taken from the Prydz Bay area, Antarctica in January and February 1991. The data contains the results from pelagic fish trawl surveys. The major species were Pleuragramma antarcticum, Channich thyid, Dacodraco hunteri and Neopagetopsis ionah. This is a subset of the data for the whole voyage. The objectives of the fish program were: to assess the distribution and abundance of pelagic fish in the Prydz Bay area; to re-sample bottom fish at sites on the continental shelf previously sampled with a small beam trawl, but using a large atter trawl to check the validity of the beam trawl's samples; to investigate the biology of the more important species. 177 midwater trawls were successfully completed at 59 stations.

Feeding of Antarctic Krill

Metadata record for data from ASAC Project 668
See the link below for public details on this project.
From the abstracts of some of the referenced papers:
Body shrinkage may be one of the strategies that Antarctic krill use to cope with food scarcity, particularly during winter.  Despite their demonstrated ability to shrink, there are only very limited data to determine how commonly shrinkage occurs in the wild.  It has been previously shown that laboratory-shrunk krill tend to conserve the shape of the eye.  This study examined whether the relationship between the eye diameter and body length could be used to detect whether krill had been shrinking.  By tracking individuals over time and examining specimens sampled as groups, it was demonstrated that fed and starved krill are distinguishable by the relationship between the eye diameter and body length.  The eye diameter of well-fed krill continued to increase as overall length increased.  This created a distinction between fed and starved krill, while no separation was detected in terms of the body length to weight relationship.  Eye growth of krill re-commenced with re-growth of krill following shrinkage although there was some time lag.  It would take approximately 2 moult cycles of shrinkage at modest rates to significantly change the eye diameter to body length relationship between normal and shrunk krill.  If krill starve for a prolonged period in the wild, and hence shrink, the eye diameter to body length relationship should be able to indicate this.  This would be particularly noticeable at the end of winter.
A series of experiments was carried out to examine the relationship between feeding, moulting, and fluoride content in Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba).  Starvation increased the intermolt period in krill, but had no effect on the fluoride concentration of the moults produced.  Addition of excess fluoride to the sea water had no direct effect on the intermoult period, the moult weight, or moult size.  Additions of 6 micrograms per litre and 10 micrograms per litre fluoride raised the fluoride concentrations of the moults produced and the whole animals.  The whole body fluoride content varied cyclically during the moult cycle, reaching a peak 6 days following ecdysis. Fluoride loss at ecdysis could largely be explained by the amount of this ion shed in the moult.

Kimberley Marine Park 30 m bathymetry and derived Morphological Surfaces

Australia has established a network of 58 marine parks within Commonwealth waters covering a total of 3.3 million square kilometres, or 40 per cent of our exclusive economic zone (excluding Australian Antarctic Territory). These parks span a range of settings, from near coastal and shelf habitats to abyssal plains. Parks Australia manages the park network through management plans that came into effect for all parks on 1 July 2018. Geoscience Australia is contributing to their management by collating and interpreting existing environmental data, and through the collection of new marine data.  “Eco-narrative” documents are being developed for those parks, where sufficient information is available, delivering collations and interpretations of seafloor geomorphology, oceanography and ecology. Many of these interpretations rely on bathymetric grids and their derived products, including those in this data release.
Geoscience Australia has developed a new marine seafloor classification scheme, which uses the two-part seafloor mapping morphology approach of Dove et al (2016). This new scheme is semi-hierarchical and the first step divides the slope of the seafloor into three Morphological Surface categories (Plain, &lt;2°; Slope, 2-10°; Escarpment, &gt;10°). This classification was applied to the portion of the Beaman and Spinnocia (2018) 30 m grid within the Kimberley Marine Park. 
This research is supported by the National Environmental Research Program Marine Biodiversity Hub through Project D1.
