Antarctica The Continent Series VMS Library 2008-2009 Satellite view Longitude / Latitude Interesting stuff • If Antarctica's ice sheets melted, the worlds oceans would rise by 60 to 65 metres (200 - 210ft) - everywhere. • Antarctica is the best place in the world to find meteorites. Dark meteorites show up against the white expanse of ice and snow and don't get covered by vegetation. • One of the biggest icebergs ever (possibly the biggest iceberg ever) broke free from the Ross ice shelf in Antarctica in 2000. {183 miles long and 23 miles wide} Interesting stuff part 2 • It has been estimated that during the feeding season in Antarctica, a full grown blue whale eats about 4 million krill per day (krill are small shrimp-like creatures), that's 4 tons - every day for 6 months. • The lowest ever temperature recorded was at the Russian Vostok station. It was - 89.6°C • The largest land animal in Antarctica is an insect, a wingless midge, Belgica antarctica, less than 1.3cm (0.5in) long. Territorial Water Claims Antarctic Bases USA #1 Amundsen-Scott #19 McMurdo #24 Palmer 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Amundsen-Scott United States Maitri India Novolazarevskaya Russia *Marion Island South Africa Syowa Japan Molodezhnaya Russia *Alfred Faure, Iles Crozet France Mawson Australia *Port aux Français, Iles Kerguelen France 10 Zhongshan China 11 Progress Russia 12 *Martin de Viviès, Ile Amsterdam France 13 Davis Australia 14 Mirny Russia 15 Vostok Russia 16 Casey Australia 17 Dumont d’Urville France 18 *Macquarie Island Australia 19 McMurdo United States 20 Scott Base New Zealand 21 Rothera United Kingdom 22 San Martin Argentina 23 Vernadsky Ukraine 24 Palmer United States 25 Capitan Arturo Prat Chile 26 +Presidente Eduardo Frei Chile 27 +Escudero Chile 28 +Great Wall China 29 +Bellingshausen Russia 30 +Artigas Uruguay 31 +King Sejong Korea 32 +Jubany Argentina 33 +Arctowski Poland 34 +Comandante Ferraz Brazil 35 General Bernardo O’Higgins Chile 36 Esperanza Argentina 37 Marambio Argentina 38 Orcadas Argentina 39 *Bird Island United Kingdom 40 *King Edward Point United Kingdom 41 Belgrano II Argentina 42 Halley United Kingdom 43 *Gough Island South Africa 44 Neumayer Germany 45 SANAE South Africa 46 Troll, Norway 47 Concordia, France/Italy *Stations north of 60°S USA Bases Palmer mundsen-Scott South Pole McMurdo Geology Magnetic South Pole Physical Features Plant Life • 2% of the continent is ice free 150 lichens 30 mosses •One liverwort Artic Hair grass Animal Life Weddell seals Live up to 18 years Blue Fin Humpback Minke Orca Sei Sperm Adelie penguin 20 inches tall, 12 pounds Krill They are 1-6” in length Snow Petrel Live 14-20 years This powerpoint was kindly donated to www.worldofteaching.com http://www.worldofteaching.com is home to over a thousand powerpoints submitted by teachers.
