Saturday, May 16, 2015. See below for an announcement regarding a very interesting biological workshop on Antarctic ecosystems, from Marie Sabacka. PhD Student, University of Cambridge. President, UK Polar Network. On May 27-28, 2015.

Seismology at Concordia Base, Antarctica. Is a joint French and Italian research station on the East Antarctic Plateau. It hosts numerous research activities including seismology. The seismology program is jointly run by EOST. With our Antarctic partners IPEV. The observatory station has been registered at the International Registry of Seismograph Stations. Under the code name CCD. For more information about the station, including how to request data, please visit the dedicated CCD pages.

Trans Fat, Algae, and Arctic Climate Change. Shedding Light on an Ecosystem in the Dark. For the International Polar Year, we gave polar scientists cameras and blogging tools and asked them to document their field work.

A girl goes to be a drafter in a weird place. Thursday, February 3, 2011. Trip to Byrd Camp in West Antarctica. Camp which is a three hour flight from McMurdo via an LC-130 Hercules plane. Is in the middle of West Antarctica and the camp is supporting about 30-40 staff and science grantees. Weather coming in to camp. Weather arrived, it lasted about a day.

I am a professor in the Earth and Planetary Sciences Department. And a Canada Research Chair in the Geodynamics of Ice Sheet - Sea Level Interactions. I did my PhD with. At Harvard University, and post doctoral work. Courant Institute of Mathematical Science. My research centers around the interactions between ice sheets, sea level and the solid Earth, and the response of these systems to past, present and future climate changes.

Antarctica, that fabulous, awesome and in some ways exquisitely beautiful last frontier. The presence of liquid water inside Enceladus would have major implications for future studies of the possibility of life in the outer solar system.

Why Not Go Now? Traveler and photographer Ben Adkison shares his photos and adventures here. Friday, March 20, 2015. If you drive far enough north along the remote west coast of New Zealand the road eventually ends in an anti-climatic parking lot. This is the trailhead for one of the ends of the Heaphy Track. Luckily we had parked our van here before the hike and caught a bus to the other end of the trail.

Friday, December 11, 2009. Final two weeks in Antarctica. A set of photos follow from a really productive day in the Darwin Glacier region doing our photo-control. We were able to get all of the 8 points we were hoping to, which mean.
