british antarctic survey

Forty-two European experts in the field of life in extreme environments research met on March 18, in the British Antarctic Survey offices in Cambridge to officially kick off the CAREX project.

British Antarctic Survey has captured dramatic images of an Antarctic ice shelf that looks set to be the latest to break out from the Antarctic Peninsula.

A large part of the Wilkins Ice Shelf on the Antarctic Peninsula is now supported only by a thin strip of ice hanging between two islands.

It is another identifiable impact of climate change on the Antarctic environment.
