The expression on our faces says it all...the #longer the sediment core (2.42 mtrs) the #farther back in time can we go to tell the #climate #history of #Schirmacher #Oasis #Antarctica @ncaor_goa @kyokuchiken @ClimateMahe

This is how the #long sediment cores were transported from the lake to the point where the #pistenbully vehicles could reach. The team had to walk through varying topography (on rocks and snow) for nearly 2-3 kms #everyday. @SONIC2019_2020 @ncaor_goa @kyokuchiken @ClimateMahe

A delightful @SONIC2019_2020 team with an 8 metre sediment core from an epi-shelf lake in East Antarctica. The team needed two attempts before #succesfully raising the #longest #sediment core. @kyokuchiken @ncaor_goa @ClimateMahe @moesgoi
