We have a full house at ‘Tent City’! The last of our on-ice team landed on the skiway today, on a Basler flight direct from Willy’s Airfield near Scott Base.
Science team members Linda Armbrecht (University of Tasmania / ANZIC IODP), Arne Ulfers (LIAG Institute of Applied Geophysics), Yuri Yamazaki (National Institute of Polar Research NIPR) and Luca Zurli (University of Siena), along with hot water driller Stephen Stretch, and Antarctica New Zealand videographer Anthony Powell, were thrilled to make it to camp, after several false starts due to weather.
It’s wonderful to have all the team on site at KIS3, ready to put in the hard yards to retrieve the sediment core we’re seeking.
