Antarctica: ocean, ice, animals and climate change

Today the continent of Antarctica sits over the South Pole – frozen, ice-covered and remote – and yet what happens on this continent affects the whole Earth. A team of subject specialists will look at Antarctic climate, animals, oceans and ice, and how these important features of the polar environment are responding to global change. Includes a visit to the British Antarctic Survey (3.2 km, c.40 mins walk, or c.20 mins bus/walk).
