After the team left Istanbul on February 6, the team reached the Antarctic after a long journey that lasted 60 hours over Brazil and Chile.
After completing his work on Horseshoe Island, the scientific delegation ended the maintenance and attitude of the Sabit Global Positioning Satellite Systems (GNSS) station (one of the first stations outside the borders of Türkiye on the DISOLING island.
The participants then crossed the Grandian Canal, the street of Penola and Le Marie von Adelaide Island with a stormy, wavy and snow -covered Sea expedition and first reached the island of the Deception and then to King George Island.
The scientific delegation had to wait for the weather conditions to return too positively on a ship called Betanzos, the Chilean flags, which had a living space for a month because there were no flights due to weather races. During the waiting time, the team spent time to help and chat the final preparations for their projects in working with the preservation of their examples.
The Minister of Industry and Technology, Mehmet Fatih Kacir, took part in the ceremony, in which the white continent team of 20 people took part, initially made a flight on the way back to King George Island, Chilean Punta Arenas. The delegation arrived in Istanbul after a trip of 14,000 700 kilometers.
The scientific team, which took part in the expedition at Istanbul Airport, Istanbul Technical University (ITU) Rector. Dr. Hasan Mandal, officials and relatives welcomed. When he returned from the Antarctic, the team had longed for relatives. Some families were also brought to pets for greeting.
Studies were carried out in 5 main headings and 19 projects
This year the science team continued its activities as part of 5 main headings, which are important for national and international scientific topics as part of the “National Polar Science Strategy” this year.
As part of the strategy, it is the highest research priorities and the highest level of all stakeholders and the public interest in the polar ecosystem at the highest level in 2023-2035.
The team, including 4 foreign researchers on Horseshoe Island, where Türkiye's scientific research camp has worked on the production of new batimetry cards, the collection of data from newly established spatial observation stations and the collection of data from geodetic stations and aquosion observations, pollution and live pollution, meteorological measurements and aquosion images.
Minister Kacir “Studies, the scientific world has received significant data”
Minister of Industry and Technology Mehmet Fatih Kacır, X Social Media Account on this topic, said that the scientific expedition on the White Continent has been completed and made the following statements:
“Under the patronage of our presidency, the national expedition of the Antarctica carried out by the Institute for Tubitak MAM Polar Studies was successfully implemented. Our 20-member team of science, which continues his research under the challenging conditions of the Antarctic for 34 days. World at.
“It was a full science campaign full”
9. National Antarctica Science Expedition Coordinator made statements at the airport. Dr. Burcu Ozsoy, a month full of over a month, was completed today, said the team returned to the country, he said.
Özsoy explained that three students took part in the expedition, and said: “These students were in the Polish research competition, which was opened by Tubitak, and then they were the three students who had the right to come to Antarctic. They also graduated in Teknofest.
Ozsoy, the team team, is very well equipped as usual, the General Directorate of Meteorology, the Ministry of National Defense Directorate for Map (HGM), the Turkish marine forces cruise, hydrography and professional department of Afad said that the participation of Afad.
“It has been very seriously melted in Antarctic.”
Prof. Dr. Burcu Özsoy referred to the scientific studies in Antarctic and continued his words as follows:
“In addition, we carried out very valuable projects with our engineering studies as well as in the physics, biology and chemistry foundation. Here we find that there is a very serious melting in Antarctica and we see that the previous glacier mountains have disappeared with climate change. We will process and examine them and transform them into scientific publications.”
Özsoy, the scientific expedition of various projects that are very valuable for themselves by finding “biology, earth sciences, chemistry and physics in the field of physics, established stations, regardless of whether we have received very valuable data.” he said.
“Our work contributes to international literature”
9. Head of the Antarctic Science Expedition Expedition Expedition Dr. Hasan Hakan Yavaşoğlu explained that 19 projects were carried out as part of the expedition and made the following statements:
“Although it is on the basis of physics, chemistry and biology, narrow space observations, observations of the GNSS spacial area, cruise hydrography and the batime cards of ochinography. We have taken examples of your pools, micro and macro organisms and new DNA barcodes.”
“Thanks to these expeditions, we have produced more than 250 publications so far”
Prof. Dr. Yavaşoğlu found that 19 projects carried out here will be the subject of the thesis, doctoral student and master and will contribute to the cultivation of human resources: “There are also scientific articles. These show how actively the scientific potential of our country has not only become within the country.” He said.
Yavaşoğlu explained that thanks to the expeditions they have completed so far, they produced more than 250 publications and continued their words as follows:
“This shows three and other publications from each project. This shows how actively filling the gaps in the gaps for this region in the scientific community.”
“Projects this year focused on aquatic ecosystems”
Prof. Dr. Yavaşoğlu This year the projects are mainly focusing on aquatic ecosystems, transfer, sea and sea water on the island and on soil samples of landscapes, he said.
Yavaşoğlu emphasized the narrow space studies on the island and said: “We have the opportunity to investigate the magnetic field of our world in many ways. Our seismometer continues to collect data. Therefore, the rest of the island will continue in terms of tectonic, volcanic or glacier, and the data changes in the sea level.
Yavaşoğlu said that the island had made many drone flights to update both sea and maps.
Yavaşoğlu pointed out that the first of climate change and the first data of the glacier year took place every year. He said.
“Observation and sample studies in the field of geology”
9. Göksu Uslular said that observation and rehearsal studies in the field of geology were carried out at this time, and that research on this topic focused on the island of the Deception, which in the northern part of the Antarctic Peninsula belongs to the islands of South South Südens.
Uslular expressed that this is one of the most active volcanoes of Antarctica that there is a Kaldera volcano on the island on the island with magmatic activity.
On the other hand, the Turkish scientific research camp and its surroundings were recorded visually for 3 years, whereby the record device was used to the point of the GNSS station on the Hufeisen island. The studies on glowing and sea ice observation of the photo and video recordings received from here have been provided.
