		Rothera is one of the best sites for their subject in the whole of Antarctica.
		Most of the biological research at Rothera is based in a new laboratory that replaced one destroyed by fire in September 2001.
		Earlier this season at Rothera, one of the BAS planes was flipped on to its roof by a freak gust of wind when it attempted to land.

		Marine science has started only recently at Rothera (1997), and we will therefore be waiting until we have more experience of the local environment before deciding on the precise nature of the science to be undertaken for this post.
		Studies of the limpet Nacella concinna at Signy and the sea urchin Stereclziniis neumayeri at Rothera have shown that feeding activity, and consequently metabolic rate, are markedly seasonal.
		The research station at Rothera (the Bonner Laboratory) includes several dry laboratories, an analytical laboratory, a small aquarium (with flow-through seawater year-round), at least one inflatable boat dedicated to marine work and a well-equipped SCUBA facility.

	Puzzling height of polar clouds linked to solar radiation
		Measurements taken during the austral summer of 2002-2003 revealed that the Rothera polar mesospheric clouds were much weaker, less frequent and not as high as those observed at the South Pole.
		“The weaker polar mesospheric clouds at Rothera may be related to differences in temperature and water vapor in the mesopause region at Rothera compared with the South Pole,” said Patrick Espy, a senior scientist with the British Antarctic Survey.
		Although the clouds were lower at Rothera than at the South Pole, they were considerably higher than at similar latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere, Gardner said.
