The Antarctic high plateau offers exceptional conditions for infrared and terahertz astronomy, as well as for programs requiring long, uninterrupted periods for measurements made with high cadence and photometric precision (i.e. time domain astronomy). In this review we summarise the special conditions of the Antarctic plateau which facilitate these observing regimes. We also outline some high profile science programs in each that could be conducted most effectively from the Antarctic high plateau, involving the first light in the Universe, the life cycle of our Galaxy, and the equation of state for the Universe. Three high plateau sites are under particular consideration for furthering such scientific programs{Dome A, Dome F and Ridge A. We summarise the activity underway at each site, which includes the building of new stations and the construction of facilities for optical, infrared and terahertz astronomy, as well as the plans for their future development.

남극환경은 남극의 거센 바람 및 이에 수반되는 적설현상을 피하기 위해 땅에서 띄우는 고상식 및 지하에 설치하는, 두가지의 형태를 취하고 있다. 고상식의 경우 건물밑으로 바람을 통하게 함으로써 적설현상을 피하는데 효과적이기는 하나 남극의 거센 바람에 대응하기 위하여 구조적인 문제를 해결해야 하는 취약점을 지니고 있다. 본 연구는 경계층난류풍하를 이용하여 고상식 남극건물에 가해지는 풍하중을 파악함으로서 남극건물의 design guide line을 제시하였다.

남극건물의 기능을 현저히 저하시키는 큰요인의 하나인 극설현상에 관한 연구는 건물로 인한 남극환경에 미치는 인간의 영향을 최소화시키기 위한 기본적인 연구라고할 수 있다. 남극에 건설될 새로운 건물을 대상으로한 극설현상의 현지조사나 실물실험은 여러모로 보아 비경제적이고 비현실적이기 때문에 풍동실험의 필요성이 절실해진다. 본 연구는 극설현상의 풍동실험을 위해 필요한 similitude parameters 의 중요성및 각각의 상관성을 분석하였으며 고상식 및 지상식의 직사각형의 단독형 및 group형 건물들 주위에 쌓인 극설의 형태와 극설량을 풍동실험을 통해 조사분석햐여 남극건물의 극설현상에 대한 설계지침(design guideline)을 제시하였다.

In this study, greenhouse gas emissions occurring from the construction of Jangbogo Antarctic research station were estimated in terms of material production stages and building stages, respectively. In detail, greenhouse gas emissions during the building stages were estimated in terms of marine transportation, inland transportation, construction equipment utilization, and construction camp operation, respectively. As a result, greenhouse gas emissions from material production stages with life cycle assessment were 8,933 ton (as $CO_{2eq}$), equivalent to the 23.8% of total greenhouse gas emissions from the construction of Jangbogo Antarctic research station, and these results indicate that greenhouse gas emissions occurring from material production stages should not be ignored. During the building stages, greenhouse gas emissions occurring from first year were greater than those from second year due to the increase in fuel consumption of freighter during second year. Additionally, marine transportation compared to inland transportation, construction equipment utilization, and construction camp operation was found to be the greater contributor for greenhouse gas emissions during the building stages. The total greenhouse gas emissions estimated from both material production stages and building stages was 34,486 ton (as $CO_{2eq}$), and greater than those estimated from comprehensive environmental evaluation (CEE) of existing other research stations. This difference is mainly attributed from approximate estimation of greenhouse gas emissions of existing other research stations without considering material production stages.

The Schmidt hammer test is one of the best nondestructive tests to measure the strength without breaking structures, which has been used to measure the strength of concrete structures in a simple way at construction sites. However, the future research is needed to apply Schmidt hammer in cold regions. This study is intended to investigate the correlation between unconfined compression test result of the oil storage facilities foundation taken at the King Sejong Antarctic Station and Schmidt hammer test result at the sample-taking site. Also, the equation for uniaxial compression strength using Schmidt hammer rebound value is proposed.

남극의 설퇴현상을 모의실험하기 위하여 폐쇠식 대기경계층난류풍동을 호주 시드니대학토목공학과에 제작 설치하였다. 철강과 100mm높이의 구형판자 및 촘촘한 양탄자등의 실험요소를 사용하여 경계층전단난류를 유도발생켰다. 유도발생된 난류는 호주령 남극령토의 해안지역에 부는 난류와 비슷한 유형을 뛰었다. 자연눈에 대처할 물질을 찾기 위하여 몇몇종류의 가루를 사용하였으나 중탄산나트륨이 가장 적합한 것임이 증명되었다. 남극건물모델주위에 실험을 통해 쌓인 눈의 형태로부터 등고선무늬를 형상화 시켰으며 image processing unit을 이용하여 등고선무늬를 포착한 후 등고선 분석 software를 이용, 눈의 형태와 양을 분석하였다.

For construction project in extreme cold region, it is essential to establish basic data on the site such as topographical data from the early stage of construction of planning and designing, and it is needed to frequently perform site investigation when necessary. However, extreme cold regions are characteristic of being at long distance and difficult in approaching, and special regions such as Antarctica, in particular, are hard to conduct site investigation. Although a site investigation may be conducted, those who can visit Antarctica are sufficiently limited so that most of the staff may participate in construction without knowledge of the site and increase the risk of errors in decision making or designing. In order to resolve such problems, the authors in this study identified methods of building wide-area topographical data and bedrock classification data of exposed areas via remote sensing and of building precise topographical data on the construction site. Also, the authors attempted to present methods by which such data can be managed and visualized integrally via three-dimensional GIS technology and all the participants in construction can learn sense of field and conduct necessary analysis as frequent as possible. The areas around the Jangbogo Antarctic Station were selected to be the research area for conducting effective integrational management and three-dimensional visualization of various spatial data such as wide-area digital elevation model, ortho-images, bedrock classification data, local precise digital elevation model, and site images. The results of this study may enable construction firms to analyze local environments for construction whenever they need for construction in extreme cold regions and then support construction work including decision making or designing.
