This blog is meant mainly for family and friends who wish to follow my adventures in Antarctica.
I traveled to Antarctica in October 2007 to take part in an international geological study that goes by the name of ANDRILL (ANtarctic DRILLing). ANDRILL's objective is to recover cores of sedimentary rock from the sea floor beneath the Ross Sea, which will help us to interpret Antarctica's climatic history over the past 50 million years. The results will provide a long-term context within which climate changes going on now may be assessed. More information on ANRILL may be found at www.ANDRILL.org. Follow the links to Project Iceberg to see lots of photos and even video.

This blog is a record of my travel to Antarctica in October through December 2007 to participate in an international geological drilling program called ANDRILL. ANDRILL recovered cores of sedimentary rock from the sea floor beneath the Ross Sea, with the objective of learning more about Antarctica's climatic history over the past 50 million years.
