Abstract

A brief history of the study of soils in Antarctica is provided beginning with Jensen (1916) who analyzed soil samples collected during the 1907–09 Shackleton expedition and continuing through ongoing efforts by several nations throughout Antarctica. Challenges to studying soils in Antarctica revolve around logistics, a lack of support for mapping, and limitations of current soil classification schemes.
