Ross Sea Connection: 11 years, 1 month agoWell, I guess it isn’t here after all. Evidently it is too big to post. I’ll see what I can do to edit it down…

Claire Barnett started the forum topic Student Impact in the group
Ross Sea Connection: 11 years, 1 month agoI made this powerpoint show to present at the last week’s workshop, during which we were invited to share our stories about the student impact of the Ross Sea Connection. It didn’t seem appropriate to show it at the time, but my students and I spent a bit of time making it, so here it […]

Laura Dunbar posted on the forum topic Schedule for Live Calls in the group
Ross Sea Connection: 11 years, 3 months agoThank you so much Sage for bringing this all together. My students had a wonderful time on their phone call to the ship. It’s hard to express here, we had 2 classes come in so 40 people crammed into my classroom. And they were listening intently. The PowerPoint slides that you put up during the […]

Hugh Powell wrote a new blog post Saying Hello and Goodbye at the Same Time in the group
Ross Sea Connection: 11 years, 4 months agoI woke up this morning to strange voices shouting. I was disoriented. Part of me felt like I was still on the bridge watching the Palmer wedge itself between ice floes, which is what I had been doing at 5 a.m. The ship was quiet then, though it shuddered and weaved among ice floes 12 […]

Hugh ~ I’ve been “tagging along” on expeditions for the past 12 years and this one was, by far, the best ever. Your wonderful blog entries and Chris’s amazing photos gave us an insight I’ve never experienced before. My students often marveled at your “voice” (the words you chose to use to describe things and how you put them together). Your entries sparked several lively class conversations. Thank you so much for the daily journals and your thoughtful replies to my students’ questions. We’re going to miss checking in on you ~ but your last journal brought closure. Thank you!

Hugh Powell wrote a new blog post Valentine Over the Dateline in the group
Ross Sea Connection: 11 years, 4 months agoHow do you stay close from half a world away? Long absences are a part of oceanography, and months away from home are something that all sailors cope with. In centuries past, sailors left home for two, three, or more years at a time, often not knowing when they would come home and communicating only […]

Hugh Powell wrote a new blog post Feeding Time on the Palmer in the group
Ross Sea Connection: 11 years, 4 months agoFar up in the bow of the Palmer, past the cold rooms, beyond the dry labs, and five stories below the bridge, two people are at work in a gleaming steel room. They mix compounds in metal bowls, sprinkle in precisely measured powders, and then arrange their mixtures on trays to put into calibrated heating […]

Ross Sea Connection: 11 years, 4 months ago
Almost all the scientific work today was canceled as 40-knot winds buffeted the Palmer and seas pitched the ship forward and back. Not good weather for dangling a 750-pound, $100,000 instrument like a CTD rosette over the side . On land, bad weather can disrupt a science plan, but only in the ocean can the very surface rise up […] - Load More
