It is the coldest, windiest, driest place on earth, an icy desert of unearthly beauty and stubborn impenetrability.

Sara Wheeler spent seven months in Antarctica, living with its scientists and dreamers....

This book is the first to describe the development of scientific activity in the Antarctic (as distinct from exploration) in all its aspects.

Although early researchers built up a picture of the main features of the Antarctic environment, the idea of science specific to the continent emerged only later. As the main disciplines of oceanography, earth sciences, the sciences of atmosphere and geospace,...

In 1845 Sir John Franklin and his expedition, sailing on the Erebus and the Terror, set out in search of the Northwest Passage.

Thirty Years in the Arctic Regions, originally published in...

Ultima Thule: A Journey to Spitzbergen
ISBN: 9783829603935 / Angielski / Twarda / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ultima Thule--the island of Spitsbergen located between Greenland, Norway, and the North Pole, was once considered the very -end of the world.- Sixty percent of its sparsley settled land mass--mountains, moors and fjords--is covered in perma-ice. Spitsbergen today is a sensitive site in the strategically delicate Arctic Sea, with the interests of the major powers colliding there. The Romantic beauty is impervious to this state of things. And Pyramiden, the coal mining town operated by the Soviet Union from 1929 to 1992 contributes to the Romantic feel: the ruins of a boomtown caught in the...
