Abstract
Admiralty Bay is a large, complex inlet in the southern coast of King George Island, South Shetland Islands (Fig. 3.1). The bay and the land area around it have been for over two decades focal points of terrestrial and marine research, covering a wide range of disciplines. Research has been based mainly on Henryk Arctowski Station, a facility established in 1977 and operated continuously by the Department of Antarctic Biology, Polish Academy of Sciences. The base is located on an ice-free area at the western coast of Admiralty Bay (Fig. 3.2) and covers different kinds of landscapes, coastlines with penguin rookeries and seal wallows, big glacier forelands, lichen heaths, swamps, grasslands and barren areas in the upper lands.
