Science at Palmer

Throughout my stay here at Palmer, I've seen several scientists come and go. Some were divers studying benthic communities, while others were researchers studying birds and fish. One science group in particular, B-229, is studying the microbial community and the effect that seasons and climate change have on them. Recently, Kristen, a graduate student working on this project, put together this video depicting the effort it takes to get water samples. It also has some fabulous wintertime shots of Palmer Station and the surrounding area.
