Today, China's 43rd Antarctic Expedition, organized by the Ministry of Natural Resources, traveled from Sanya, Hainan to the Antarctic. The survey focused on five major directions, including dealing with global climate change and upgrading of research sites, to carry out comprehensive and three-dimensional Antarctic research missions to continuously improve China's polar understanding level and global ocean governance capabilities. It will fully complete the completion and inspection of the Qinling Station site construction and inspection work, carry out surveying and mapping of the proposed supporting facilities at the Mary Bird Research Station, and carry out preliminary preparations for the upgrading and transformation of the Great Wall Station and Zhongshan Station. Comprehensive multi-disciplinary surveys and long-term monitoring of the physical ocean, marine chemistry, marine biology, marine geology, atmosphere, and sea ice are carried out in typical sea areas such as the sea area adjacent to the Antarctic Peninsula and the Astronaut Sea around the effects of climate change on the Southern Ocean ecosystem.
