Abstract
Permafrost (perennially frozen ground) is central to the carbon cycle and to the climate system and is recognized by the WCRP/WMO as a key element of the Earth System in which research efforts should focus. Compared with the Arctic, very little is known about the distribution, thickness, and properties of permafrost in the Antarctic. The main reason for this is the scarce network of permafrost temperature monitoring boreholes, as well as the short number of active layer monitoring sites. There is also a general lack of section exposures and a need for obervation by drilling. According to the IPCC in the last decades regions underlain by permafrost have been reduced in extent, and a warming of the ground has been observed in many areas.
The study area is the South Shetlands an archipelago located in the Antarctic Peninsula region, one of the Earth’s regions where warming has been more significant in the last 50 years. Field activities focus in two islands with similar climate, but contrasting geological and geomorphological settings. Livingston Island shows high mountain relief, is 90% covered by glaciers and the bedrock in the research area is a low-grade metasedimentary sequence. The geological setting provides an excellent site for studying and monitoring the relationships between permafrost, geomorphodynamics and climate. Deception Island is an active volcanic cone with a collapse caldera and several smaller cones. 60% of the island is occupied by glaciers. Thermal anomalies occur at several localities and the island is a very good site for studying the interactions between volcanic activity, geomorphodynamics and permafrost.
PERMANTAR – Permafrost and Climate Change in the Maritime Antarctic - contributes to the Global scientific effort to bridge the gap in the knowledge of Antarctic permafrost characteristics, sensitivity and implications for climate change. The project includes the installation and maintenance of two permafrost monitoring boreholes and of two sites for active layer monitoring (CALM-S), all to be included in the Global Terrestrial Network for Permafrost (GTN-P) of the World Meteorological Organization and International Permafrost Association, and in the Global Geocryological Database (GGD/NSIDC). In the Antarctic only 4 boreholes with comparable characteristics exist today and therefore PERMANTAR will be a major project contributing to Antarctic permafrost research.
Objectives of the project focus also on the installation of geomorphodynamics monitoring sites, on studying the influence of climate change on permafrost temperatures, modelling the climate variability of the Antarctic Peninsula region using mesoscale climate models and on modelling of permafrost
distribution and characteristics. A significant contribution will be the evaluation of the possibilities for using the modelling approaches to other areas of the Antarctic Peninsula where permafrost hasn’t been studied in detail. Another important contribution is the implementation of an open-access database on physical properties of the bedrock and deposits of both study areas, a service that may be at a later stage extended to other regions of the Antarctic. This type of data archive provide unvaluable ground truth for the modelling community.
PERMANTAR involves 3 Portuguese research centers rated Excellent by the FCT, a Spanish research group working in the South Shetlands since 1989 and involved in 11 Antarctic campaigns and the Bulgarian Antarctic Institute, responsible for the coordination scientific activity of Bulgaria in the Antarctic. Four experts on permafrost and on the geomorphology of the Maritime Antarctic are consultants. The proposal includes 2 grants for young researchers that will result in two Ms theses. These grants are fundamental for the strengthening of the Portuguese critical mass on Antarctic permafrost and answer to one of the priorities of the Portuguese Science Strategy for the IPY, which is to contribute to the building up of the “new generation of polar scientists”.
PERMANTAR is the Portuguese contribution to the International Polar Year (IPY) core projects “TSP - Thermal State of Permafrost: an International Network of Permafrost Observatories” (IPA) and “ANTPAS - Antarctic and sub-Antarctic Permafrost, Soils and Periglacial Environments” and is a core
project that integrates the Portuguese Science Strategy for the IPY as proposed by the National Committee for the IPY (Xavier et al 2006). Antarctic logistics are provided by the Spanish Antarctic Programme (a research project for 2007-2009 has been recently approved and a letter of support is
included in the attachments) and by the Bulgarian Antarctic Institute (member of PERMANTAR).
These countries have three research stations in the study area. Such costs are not included in the project budget and constitute a very significant and fundamental support for the field activities.
