A number of governments maintain permanent research stations throughout Antarctica. Many of the stations are staffed around the year. A total of 30 countries (as of October 2006), all signatory to the Antarctic Treaty, operate seasonal (summer) and year-round research stations on the continent and in its surrounding oceans.

Map shows the location of permanent Antarctic research stations

The population of people doing and supporting science on the continent and its nearby islands varies from approximately 4,000 during the summer season to 1,000 during winter.^{[citation needed]} In addition to these permanent stations, approximately 30 field camps are established each summer to support specific projects.^{[1][dubious – discuss]}
