Description - Antarctic Environments and Resources: A Geographical Perspective by J.D. Hansom
Antarctica is perceived as a potential source of marine, mineral and hydrocarbon resources. This text examines the differing and sometimes conflicting interests, charting development of human involvement in the area, focusing on the exploitation of resources from early sealing to modern fisheries, tourism and science. It assesses the consequent impacts on the natural environment with reviews of the merging framework for future environmental management developed under the Antarctic Treaty.
