A. Drawings on photo: situation - the retreat of glacier in Greenland B. 3D design: intent - design proposal of the hybrid antarctic floating and submersible observatory robotics/system, incorporating semi-permeable membranes distributed at ice shelf/shelves'front to regenerate Antarctica's coastline by desalinating seawater; re-edge the ice. A. Mapping: Antarctica's surface and bottom water temperature B. Mapping: The effects of circumpolar water current west wind drift and the thermohaline warm ocean current on Antarctica's water temperature A. Mapping: Disappearing and Remaining Ice Sheets B. Mapping: Ten major ie shelves and ice-mass-surface elevation A. Animation: Phenomenon of the formation of Antarctica bottom water B. Animation: Animating robotics interaction with ocean and ice shelves/sheets A. Drawings: Design integration/ intervention into the second largest ice shelf in West Antarctica, the Ronne-Filchner Ice Shelf. B. Drawings: North-south vertical section showing the aspects of Antarctica coastal current and the natural phenomenon of melting and refreezing process happening within this 'trough'/'cavity' of Antarctica's ocean bottom under the ice shelf/shelvesA. Drawings (i.system logic): plan view - osmotic/reverse osmotic loop B. Drawings (ii.energy): plan view - zone of intervention, ice thickness and the flows of coastal current A. Drawings (iii.distribution scalable): plan view - zone of interventions with design proposal of the hybrid Antarctic floating and submersible observatory robotics system, incorporating semi-permeable membranes. B. Drawings (iv.instant action): sectional elevations - zone of interventions with design proposal of the hybrid Antarctic floating and submersible observatory robotics system incorporating semi-permeable membranes. A. Drawings (v.benefit): sectional elevation - zone of interventions with design proposal of the hybrid Antarctic floating and submersible observatory robotics system, incorporating semi-permeable membranes. B. Drawings (design integration with target figure of salinity reduction): sectional elevations - zone of interventions with design proposal of the hybrid Antarctic floating and submersible observatory robotics system, incorporating semi-permeable membranes. A. Drawings: justifying scale of design proposal B. Physical model: final performative robotic sensoring device with Arduino Script and Spectra-flex sensor, salt, frozen ice, water, thermometer supported by mild steel structure and spray-painted MDF base. A. Animation: stills of particle animation; to show the simulation of regeneration of Antarctic coastline by deslinating seawater and stimulating the growth of ice shelves; re-edge the ice. B. 3D Imaging: final thesis image - the mass distribution of agents of the hybrid Antarctic floating and submersible observatory robotics/system, incorporating semi-permeable membranes to regenerate the Antarctic coastline by desalinating seawater and stimulating the growth of ice shelves; Re-edge the ice
