You know you've truly found your life's purpose when it's after 9 on a Tuesday night (after a very long day of regular work in one of the craziest weeks of the year) but you're editing and writing dense text and brainstorming with unbridled joy.

Tuesday night is #Antarctica night! I'm writing a plain language summary for educators about #SWAIS2C Sensitivity of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet to 2 Celsius (of warming).

We'll drill through 2 sites on the Ross Ice Shelf and into the sediment below. Analyzing this sediment will help us learn more about past melting of the WAIS (West Antarctic Ice Sheet) when Earth was warmer and global sea levels were higher.

Tuesday night is Antarctica night & I’m working on #SWAIS2C, a joint project between the USA, NZ, and our various partner nations.

McMurdo Station is the USA’s primary base & Scott Base is NZ’s. I 💙 that they’re side by side!
