The research isn't temporary: the scientists and workers who support science only work in Antarctic temporarily.
If you are a doctor and want to serve in Antarctica, you can apply to your government for a temporary position in a research station on the continent.
Antarctica is the continent with no permanent inhabitants, although it does have temporary residents such as scientists and researchers who work in research stations.
Antarctica is the continent with no permanent residents. Although it has temporary research stations with personnel rotating in and out, there is no indigenous population living there.
Often communities develop among the temporary workers and scientists in the research stations on the continent.
When one works and lives in Antarctica on a temporary basis, one is allowed to claim temporary residence in Antarctica.
All scientific stations on Antarctica support the temporary workers and scientists who gather data there about the health of planet Earth.
The only inhabitants of Antarctica are temporary: there is no permanent or native population on the continent. Temporary workers and scientists in Antarctica sleep in dorms or tents, dine in cafeterias or tents, and work in labs or tents, depending on the season, the work location and the research station that accommodates their work.
Antarctica has the lowest population of all the continents, because of its severe climate.
Antarctica has no towns, only small research stations from a number of countries.
There is no infrastructure or financial incentive to support a hospital on Antarctica. Research stations offer EMT-level medical facilities, so temporary workers and scientists can be looked after as necessary.
Antarctic research stations are supported by governments that signed or ratified the Antarctic Treaty, which dedicates the continent to science. Temporary workers live and work there. The stations provide sleeping areas, eating and work areas, and equipment storage stations where scientists and people who work in support of science conduct their research into the health of planet earth.
Any temporary or travel shelter in Antarctica is provided by the person requiring shelter.
