Antarctica

January 10 - February 7, 2001

New scans of (most of) my slides, plus some extras that weren't here before! My first trip to Antarctica was with Doug MacAyeal and the University of Chicago, where I did my undergrad. We went there to study a huge iceberg (B15) which had broken away from the continent in March of 2000. Hopefully these pictures and their captions will give you a sense for what we did. There's a bit more about the science we were doing in my description of a later trip.
