自1957年日本开始南极研究探险以来,许多日本地球化学工作者对南极的地球化学研究发生了兴趣。他们的活动大多集中东昭和基地周围,对水、雪、矿物、蒸发盐和海洋沉积物的化学成分进行了分析。结合地貌特征,他们根据湖水的化学成分和同位素组成讨论了海岸地区盐湖的成因和演化。同时沿考察路线对南极海域进行了海洋学方面的研究。 Since Japan began its exploration of Antarctic research in 1957, many Japanese geochemical workers have become interested in the geochemical research of Antarctica. Their activities mostly focus on the eastern base of Showa Denko and analyze the chemical composition of water, snow, minerals, evaporative salts and marine sediments. Combined with the geomorphological features, they discuss the genesis and evolution of salt lakes in the coastal area based on the chemical composition and isotopic composition of the lake. At the same time, the oceanographic research on the Antarctic waters was conducted along the route of investigation.
