ملخص:Antarctica is the only continent without permanent human habitation, yet it may hold the key to our survival. Meduna shows how geologists and glaciologists learn about the implications of today's climate change for the future; how scientists study migration patterns of emperor penguins or examine the microbial evidence that may reveal how life evolved on Earth-- and what it may look like on other planets-- Source other than Library of Congress.
A land of ice -- Uncovering the past -- Life on ice -- True Antarcticans -- Oasis in a frozen desert -- Beyond the ice.
