if too many scientist started to work in Antarctica they would need to look for resources which would mean possibly damaging the ecosystem, as well as the habitat for many animals.
The antarctic ecosystem is quite fragile so it could be disrupted easily.
Some visit Antarctica to research the climate and environment. They generally stay a few months only.
They do so because it is the closest thing we have to an untouched environment.
Because of the remoteness of the Antarctic we are able to learn many things that occurred on the planet because of man.
Through the drilling into the glacial ice we have learned about the history of our planet in ways we could not have learned in any other manner and to degrees that were unthinkable 100 years ago.
No, there are no nations living in Antarctica. There are only scientists living there to get information.
No continent has only scientists. Even Antarctica has support staff.
The only people in Antarctica are scientists who study the environment there, so for a living they would do scientifical studies.
No, Antarctica is a continent. 2nd Answer: While there are scientists living and working on Antarctica, no country has claimed it at this time. It's just one huge continent as the first answerer said.
Living and working in Antarctica is strictly a temporary and volunteer proposition. Scientists and workers take on these jobs to study the health of planet earth. Collecting the raw data is the reason for performing this work on the continent.
Yes, they can, with the complete support of imports. Research stations on the continent facilitate temporary living and working situations for scientists and workers in support of science. These stations are supported by their governments.
No. Anyone living and working in Antarctica does so on a temporary basis.
In a way, none of them, but Antarctica does have scientists there and they're living people
There are usually several scientific groups of various nationalities living and studying on the Antarctic continent - so there will also be several languages spoken.
Foodstuffs are imported by each government that supports a research station. Scientists eat whatever the government has imported, either in cafeterias or in field camps, depending on where they are working. Usually scientists eat food while living in Antarctica, brought in by supply ships and cooked by chefs, all in support of science. Varies with their native countries. All nations have had or have expeditions there so they eat similar things that they do at home.
Scientists request grants to study the health of planet earth, and travel to Antarctica to collect raw data in order to answer their question. Research stations are the hubs in support of these scientists.
Scientists working and living temporarily in Antarctica study the health of planet earth. The ozone layer protects the earth from damaging rays of the sun. The depletion of that layer can affect the health of planet earth.
