Summary:

Since 1986, the Antarctic Ecosystem Research Division (AERD) has completed vessel-based research in the area surrounding the South Shetland Islands, Elephant Island, the South Orkney Islands, and the Antarctic Peninsula on four ships.

The RV Surveyor was a NOAA ship, used by the Antarctic Marine Living Resources (AMLR) Program from 1989-1995.

The RV Yuzhmorgeologiya was a Russian vessel contracted by the AMLR Program from 1996 through 2009.

The RV Moana Wave was contracted in 2010, and is still in use today.
