Antarctic data series

Download the Antarctic Data Series, our publication containing data and analyses from Antarctic field work.

The Antarctic Data Series is produced by the Antarctic Research Centre at Victoria University of Wellington. Volumes contain compilations of data and analyses from Antarctic field work. This material may be useful to the wider research community, but is not suitable for publication in academic journals.

The volumes are held by a number of polar institutes and university libraries around the world. Additional paper copies can be purchased from the Antarctic Research Centre or downloaded in PDF format from the list below.
