ABOUT US<\/strong><\/p>\n

The UTM Antarctica Research Team is a research group which is currently organized under Institute of Geospatial
\nScience and Technology (INSTeG) and reports directly to the Office of Vice Chancellor of Research and Innovation
\n(TNCPI). The research group is participated by academic staffs coming from various disciplines such as remote
\nsensing, biological sciences, sport science, numerical computing and mechanical engineering.<\/p>\n

HISTORY<\/strong><\/p>\n

The formation of UTM Antarctica Research Team is inspired by the UTM Pro Chancellor, Tan Sri Dr Salleh Mohd Nor who
\npaid a visit to Antarctic with the HH Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin in Nov 2011. During his visit, he foreseen that there is a need
\nfor UTM to have research on Antarctica as many technological and innovative UTM scientist may discover potential scientific
\nniche. As a start, TNCPI has called up the kick-off meeting and chaired by Prof Dr Mazlan Hashim during the first Antarctica
\nseminar in March 2012. In April 2012, the UTM Antarctica Research Team is finally formed by a group from Institute of
\nGeospatial Science and Technology (INSTeG), Sustainability Research Alliance (SRA), Centre of Innovative Planning and
\nDevelopment (CIPD), Environmental Biotechnology Research Group (EnVBiotech), Sport Innovation and Technology Center
\n(SITC), Automotive Development Centre (ADC) and Institut Ibnu Sina (ISS).<\/p>\n

MISSION<\/strong><\/p>\n

The UTM Antarctica Research Team focuses on research projects based on the holistic theme of Impact of Antarctic<\/strong>
\nclimate change on tropical region from the socio-economic-ecological perspective<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The objectives of this research team are;<\/p>\n

    \n
      \n
    • To examine Antarctic climate change influences on socio-economic-ecology of tropical region<\/li>\n
    • To predict future scenario of climate change impact on tropical region based on Antarctic climate dynamics<\/li>\n
    • To set up regional hub on Antarctica-tropic impact center at UTM<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/ul>\n

      The theme is based on FOUR major programmes which consist of research projects lead by staff from various research
      \ngroups and centre of excellent. Table 1 presents four major programmes and its research projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
