• About this project

  In winter 2007-08, we’ll be posting field dispatches from scientists on five different research projects in Antarctica. The science covered by these first-hand reports is diverse and includes the geologic history of climate change, the current breeding behavior and changing demographics of Adélie penguins, the deployment of a powerful new telescope at the South Pole, the fast-evolving science of ice-sheet dynamics, and responses of a polar marine ecosystem experiencing dramatic warming.
