Antarctica

 

POPS goes Antartica? This project is a good example of the ways in which scientists work together

to answer questions. Scientists become experts in a part of the natural world and its processes.

In this case, Rebecca Dickhut is an expert in Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) and the ways

in which they move around the world. Hugh Ducklow is an expert in picoplankton and in the

Antarctic coastal ecosystem.

Ice Trek 88 years ago, Captain Robert Falcon Scott organised an expedition to the Antarctic

in the hope of being the first to reach latitude 90 degrees South. In 1998 three expeditioners

prepare their own expedition in the hope of being the first to repeat Scott's journey.
