Australia to Build New Hobart Wharf to Resolve Nuyina’s Refueling Problem https://www.byteseu.com/1779521/ #Australia #BerthHobart #Nuyina
Wildlife scientists aboard Australia's icebreaker #Nuyina believe a deadly strain of bird flu has reached the sub-Antarctic Heard Island after they witnessed unusual levels of mortality in elephant seals.
The scientists say penguins and other bird species frequenting the Australian territory island have not been impacted.

Sea pigs, icefish and trilobites: #Antarctica’s mysterious marine life – in pictures https://www.theguardian.com/environment/gallery/2025/may/08/antarctica-marine-life-denman-glacier-rsv-nuyina-in-pictures
"True #trilobites went #extinct more than 250m years ago, but the #SouthernOcean is home to a living lookalike: Ceratoserolis trilobitoides. They have a segmented, armoured exoskeleton, which helps protect them from predators... after a marine science voyage, a team aboard #Australia’s icebreaker #Nuyina has collected some remarkable species from the waters around the #DenmanGlacier"
Scientists collect unique sea creatures during voyage to East Antarctica https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04-03/nuyina-scientists-collect-antarctic-sea-creatures-denman-glacier/105130020
"The RSV #Nuyina is partway through a 60-day voyage to the edge of #Antarctica — it's first mission dedicated solely to marine science... research teams are analysing some of the unique #biodiversity found in the #SouthernOcean. These include #SeaSpiders as big as your hand, #SeaStars that grow to the size of a dinner plate and #octopus species endemic to the region... some could be new to science"
It’s the little things that count https://aappartnership.org.au/its-the-little-things-that-count/
"Deep inside the icebreaker RSV #Nuyina off the coast of East #Antarctica, as 9-metre swells and 50-knot gales rage outside, the #plankton team is busy collecting tiny creatures with the wet well: a unique sampling space below the waterline, connected to the ocean by large inlets... the wet well enables particularly fragile #animals, like #salps and #jellyfish, to be captured alive and in good condition."
Antarctica’s fragile #plankton ready for research https://www.antarctica.gov.au/news/2024/antarcticas-fragile-jellies-ready-for-research/
"For the first time, a range of fragile and exotic #MarineCreatures, captured in waters off #Antarctica in perfect condition, are being housed in the Australian Antarctic Division’s research #aquarium. The gelatinous organisms include predatory #SeaAngels and #CombJellies that were captured in RSV #Nuyina’s unique ‘wet well’, during a recent voyage to Mawson research station."

#Australia’s #Antarctic #icebreaker RSV #Nuyina joins Southern Ocean plankton survey https://www.antarctica.gov.au/news/2024/nuyina-joins-southern-ocean-plankton-survey/
"Over 33 years the #SouthernOcean CPR tows have revealed changes in the abundance, composition, distribution and diversity of #plankton species. This includes a decline in the numbers of #krill caught, an increase in smaller #zooplankton, and sudden massive #blooms of other plankton species spread over large areas."
Antarctic canyon discovered during wild weather
https://www.antarctica.gov.au/news/2024/antarctic-canyon-discovered-during-wild-weather/
"A massive underwater canyon has been discovered in #Antarctica by acousticians on board icebreaker RSV #Nuyina. The canyon was discovered when wild weather forced resupply work at #CaseyResearchStation to be temporarily suspended... Rather than sit and wait, they decided to use the time to map the #seafloor... What they found was remarkable – a 2100 m-deep canyon, extending more than 46 kilometres off the glacier front."
The new icebreaker Nuyina is having some problems down in Tassie...
> The ship, which came into service in 2021, has been refused permission to sail under the Tasman Bridge to reach its refuelling station, which means it has to travel to Burnie, 674km away by sea
>
> Computer-based simulations show Australia's Antarctic icebreaker "hit" Hobart's Tasman Bridge four times

L'hivernant australien secouru par le brise-glace RSV #Nuyina a été transféré dans un hôpital à Hobart en Tasmanie.

Ce dimanche, le RSV #Nuyina s'est approché de la base de Casey jusqu'à 144 km, bloqué par la banquise. Les 2 hélicoptères du bord ont parcouru cette distance en à peu près 1 h (ce qui est particulièrement risqué, même en été) et ont récupéré l'hivernant en difficulté pour le ramener à bord. Le Nuyina est attendu à Hobart autour du 10/09.
