  Scott and Scurvy

   » ‎ del.icio.us antarctica
  "Except for the nature of vitamin C, eighteenth century physicians knew this too. But in the second half of the nineteenth century, the cure for scurvy was lost. The story of how this happened is a striking demonstration of the problem of induction, and how progress in one field of study can lead to unintended steps backward in another. An unfortunate series of accidents conspired with advances in technology to discredit the cure for scurvy. What had been a simple dietary deficiency became a subtle and unpredictable disease that could strike without warning. Over the course of fifty years, scurvy would return to torment not just Polar explorers, but thousands of infants born into wealthy European and American homes. And it would only be through blind luck that the actual cause of scurvy would be rediscovered, and vitamin C finally isolated, in 1932. " Absolutely fascinating stuff.

  Thar she blows!

   » ‎ NHM Antarctic Conservation

  Temperature: -14°C
  Wind Speed: 20 knots
  Temp with wind chill: -34°C

  When we arrived in Antarctica and approached Scott Base for the first time, I was surprised to notice 3 large wind turbines above the base on Crater Hill. I’d never seen them in any photos of the area and had read that the electricity for the base came from diesel generators, which it had, until last December. Now the generators are silent and the base is run entirely on wind power, with the surplus electricity going to McMurdo Station ( the American Antarctic base located 3km away).

  

  Building the windfarm © Antarctica New Zealand / Hayden Harrison

  The wind turbines themselves are specially designed for low temperature operation, and so they do not have gearboxes with oil that can ice up. Erecting them was an engineering feat in itself and the foundations had to be made in New Zealand and transported here by ship due to the difficulty of setting concrete in extreme low temperatures.

  Scott Base has always prided itself on being as green on the inside as it is on the outside, and this is a very significant step towards sustainability. It’s a great feeling to realise that every time you switch on a light or log on to a computer, the juice is provided by the wind whistling around outside!
