Antarctica

Exploring......

The last few days, the weather has been less cooperative, refraining us from heading into the field. This gives me some time to sift through all the images. The Palmer Station area is great for explorations. After hiking up the Marr Ice Piedmont glacier and descending to the other side, we had some fun surprises: great views of the mountains, seals, and penguins. So lucky to be here!

    Not all of #Antarctica is covered in snow and ice. The western Antarctic Peninsula has seen nearly 90% of its glaciers retreat as a result of rapid warming. This retreat has exposed soils that are now subject to plant colonization.
