Macquarie Island Station : ウィキペディア英語版 | Macquarie Island Station
Macquarie Island Station, known as ''Macca'' to staff, is a permanent Australian subantarctic research base on Macquarie Island, lying about half-way between Australia and Antarctica. The station lies at the base of Wireless Hill, between two bays on the isthmus at the northern end of the island. ==History== The station was opened in 1911 by Douglas Mawson as his party established a base to relay radio messages from Antarctica to Hobart. From 1948 the Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions used the base for scientific purposes.〔 It is now operated by the Australian Antarctic Division. Scientific research on the island is focused around biology, geosciences, meteorology, and human impact on the environment. Macquarie island birds breed on the island so wildlife management and counting is key to a number of research projects.
