This project will use polar mosses as sentinels for climate change to determine the extent to which change is already affecting Antarctica and enable development of more robust global climate models. Novel remote sensing methods will be developed to identify biodiversity most at risk from climate change thus maintaining Antarctic treaty obligations.

该项目将使用极地苔藓作为气候变化的哨兵，以确定变化已经影响到南极洲的程度，并使开发更强大的全球气候模型成为可能。将开发新的遥感方法，以查明受气候变化威胁最大的生物多样性，从而维护南极条约义务。
