7 October 2010 – McMurdo Station, Antarctica: Intensive Dropsonde phase of Concordiasi.
Cara Sucher, Laboratory Science Support Manager at McMurdo Station, provides some basic information as a follow up to the Concordiasi Project. Cara pointed me in the direction of the project leaders for first hand accounts. Look for a more detailed interview with the team in upcoming vblogs (filmed with borrowed cameras).
See here for more on the Dropsonde Phase. Concordiasi overall presentation.
