Hydrocarboncontamination in soils from extremely cold areas, such as those from Antarctica,requires the development of specifc remediation strategies for cleaning up anthropogenicpollution. Previous reports evidenced that after on-site biostimulation processof gasoil-contaminated Antarctic soils, 20...
