Antarctic field training is complete!

Put up an emergency shelter in response to a scenario where the “helicopter pilot” (our trainer) got knocked out. Keep the person warm, set up the tent and get the pilot into it!

Last month was the 2nd lowest #Antarctic sea ice extent on record for the month of October.

This was 1,760,000 km² below the 1981-2010 October average. Data from the @nsidc.bsky.social at nsidc.org/data/seaice_...

#Antarctic sea ice remained near record low levels for ice extent through most of October. This was especially due to large departures in regions like the Amundsen and Bellingshausen Seas.

Outstanding work by Zoe Rand (and others including me!) to piece together the epic story of Antarctic blue whales: from complete whaling decimation to some glimmer of hope in recent decades
doi.org/10.3354/esr0...
A glimmer of hope for Antarctic blue whales: new work (by us!) shows that they continue to increase from a low point of just 418 individuals after whaling to more than 4000 in 2024.
