Transmissions from the Ice Sheet: An Oregon State University Student braves the Antarctic |
|
Transmissions from the Ice Sheet is a chronicle of Logan Mitchell’s trek to Antarctica as a member of a the WAIS Divide Ice Core field team. Mitchell, a Ph.D. student in geosciences at Oregon State University and part of Dr. Ed Brook’s ice coring lab, will work at the WAIS Divide research station as a core handler during the 2008/2009 field season- ultimately part of the core will end up in Brook’s lab, where he and his group will study it in order to reconstruct a record of Antarctic climate change over the last 100,000 years. Transmissions will give the world a window into the day-to-day life of a scientist working in a remote and inhospitable place.
