SURVEY OF ANTARCTIC WATER SUPPLY AND WASTE DISPOSAL FACILITIES, PRACTICES, AND PROBLEMS
Low temperature conditions initiate physical, biological, and chemical changes in the environment. These, in turn, pose significant problems in the design, construction, and operation of facilities for the distribution of water and for the collection, treatment, and disposal of waste. In addition, r...
