Relying on China's Antarctic stations — Kunlun, Taishan, Zhongshan and Changcheng, or Great Wall — the scientists will also carry out studies of the nearshore marine environment, including soil, geology, atmospheric conditions, snow and ice. And they will deeply study the role of Antarctica in global climate change, Long said.
He said the research team will also complete the interior of the main building structure of China's Qinling Station in the Antarctic, as well as construct and commission support infrastructure, such as research buildings, outdoor pipelines, communications, sewage treatment systems, seawater desalination systems and new energy microgrid systems.
