"Antarctic expedition is a very hard undertaking, which requires dedication and hardship. However, due to various reasons, our reserve forces are worrying, and team instability is the biggest problem. " Wuhan, who participated in the construction of scientific research stations, visited Antarctica five times.
Professor Chen Dong, director of the China Antarctic Surveying and Mapping Research Center of the university, said.
Physical condition is up to standard, and psychological self-control is also very important
On October 30th, 65438/kloc-0, the polar survey office of the State Oceanic Administration announced through its website and related media that in order to meet the needs of the 24th Antarctic scientific research winter post, the personnel of Great Wall Station and Zhongshan Station will be pre-selected for the society.
It is stipulated in the application conditions that the applicants must have China nationality (excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan), must produce a medical report from a specialized medical institution above Grade III, and have the physical conditions to be competent for the special polar environment.
In addition to being free from various organic diseases, serious chronic diseases and infectious diseases, the applicant must be mentally healthy and have certain self-regulation and self-control ability as required.
There is a shortage of scientific research talents, and open selection is an attempt.
Yesterday, the reporter logged into the forum of this sea election activity and found that the interviewees included experienced chefs, doctors, newly graduated college students, teachers, soldiers and civil servants.
The position of super third-class chef best reflects the characteristics of the industry: "I really want to do something for people who go to Antarctica, but I don't know what I can do there if I am selected."
A geography teacher who claimed to have 17 teaching experience said, "In order to let more children know about the South Pole, I will go to the South Pole."
In addition, many college graduates who have just left school have the same idea-they really want to go to that mysterious place and accept self-challenge.
The relevant person in charge of the polar expedition office told the reporter that it is also an attempt to openly select the expedition team members, mainly to see if they can recruit suitable talents from the society. In Zhongshan Station, the team members have to spend about 2 months in the dark, so they have high demands on physical and psychological quality. Judging from the current situation, many people don't know much about the hardships of life in Antarctica.
