SUMMARY:Cambridge Festival: Expedition Ice
DESCRIPTION:Journey into the future of polar research and operations! As part of 2024’s Cambridge Festival\, we’re inviting you to step inside British Antarctic Survey as we open our office doors in Cambridge on 16 March 2024. Come and discover the fascinating polar research\, technology\, engineering and operations that will guide our next 10 years of scientific research in the polar regions. \nTickets are now available to book here \nWhy is Antarctic ice the key to understanding climate change? What do researchers in Antarctica do? How are they conducting their research and what are they trying to find out? Discover the answers and get a taste of what life and work is like in the extreme conditions of Antarctica and why research there is so vital. \nMeet polar scientists and engineers\, pose the difficult questions and sample life as a polar researcher! Whether you’re interested in scientific research\, cutting-edge technology\, the impact on climate change\, our research stations\, vehicles and equipment\, the remarkable RSS Sir David Attenborough or our operations in extreme conditions… this ice-cool experience is open to everyone. \n \n\nHear stories from those who have experienced life and work in the freezing winds and icy wilderness of Antarctica.\nBed down in a polar researcher’s field tent\, try on the essential kit necessary to endure such intrepid conditions.\nLiterally\, step into the boots of a polar explorer and discover the methods they use to study the ice\, rocks\, ocean and animals.\nDon’t miss the chance to capture a photo with the penguins aboard our snowmobile!\nJoin us and learn that what happens in Antarctica doesn’t stay in Antarctica.\n\n \nEntrance to our open day is by pre-booked ticket with a limited number of walk-ins available on the day. \nBook your tickets here. \nOpen between 10am and 4pm. This is a FREE event. \nIf you are travelling by car please park at the Madingley Park and Ride. \nStep-free access available.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Giant Piston Coring capability on RRS Sir David Attenborough
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in getting an up to 40 m long marine sediment core for either high-resolution Holocene or Late Quaternary reconstructions? For example\, for high resolution Holocene or Late Quaternary reconstructions or any other science question. If so\, please read on! \nWe are pleased to invite you to a community workshop (hybrid format) to develop and discuss plans for future use of the Giant Piston Corer (GPC) from the new NERC research vessel\, the RRS Sir David Attenborough. Note: The ship’s geographical working areas are not only limited to the polar regions\, so this call is not just for polar scientists. \nThe basic details for the workshop are given below\, and the workshop programme can be found through the registration link below. If you are interested in attending\, please register by 15th of March 2024. Please also note that in-person places are limited to 40 and will be allocated on a first come first served basis. \n  \nWhat: UK Science Community Workshop for Giant Piston Coring capability on RRS Sir David Attenborough \nWhen: 27th of March 2024; 10.15 – 16.00 hr \nFormat: Hybrid – online and in person \nWhere: British Antarctic Survey\, Cambridge\, CB3 0ET\, UK \nCost: FREE! There are no travel funds available but lunch and refreshments will be provided \n  \nPlease register via using this link – Note that registration closes on 15th of March 2024\nIf you have any questions\, please get in touch with us. And please feel free to forward this announcement to colleagues in your research group/department who may be interested in attending the workshop. We look forward to seeing you in March! \nClaus-Dieter Hillenbrand (hilc@bas.ac.uk) & Kelly Hogan (kelgan@bas.ac.uk)
