Abstract
China and Australia have been collaborating in Antarctic activities since the early 1980s and that collaboration has
grown and become more formalized as China’s Antarctic program has expanded. This collaboration has involved personnel
exchange, logistic support, environmental protection and particularly scientific research. China and Australia have signed a series
of memorandums and treaties of friendship and cooperation on Antarctic activities in the past few years. Relevant mechanisms of
cooperation between expedition plans and programs have been established, and the exchange and cooperation in people, science
and technology, services, and supplies are undertaken across a range of organizations. Here we overview the history of the bilateral
collaboration and provide a few examples of the many areas of cooperation. These examples are focused on activities in Hobart,
the key centre of the Australian Antarctic program.
