Science Supported by Antarctica NZ

The science supported by Antarctica New Zealand fits within three research themes outlined in the Antarctic and Southern Ocean Science Strategy. Scientific research from a wide variety of disciplines is supported within these themes and it is recognised that much of the research is applicable to more than one of these themes. The list below shows all the events Antarctica New Zealand currently supports.
