PRESSURISED: 057 - A peek under the ice
Monday, 14 April, 2025
It’s the last in our run of episodes about Antarctica. We are all back home, and we promise to stop bothering the poor continent. Thom couldn’t talk about it until after the press release, but the Schmidt Ocean Institute cruise he was on had to look at the seabed under a 150-meter-thick ice shelf right as it moved out of the way. We talked to the science leads on that cruise, Patricia Esquete and Sasha Montelli. We learned about the hydrography and glaciology of that region and then the seabed and communities that were revealed when the ice shelf moved away. We’re really trying to make this project self-sustaining, so we have started looking for ways to support the podcast. Here’s a link to our page on how to support us, from the free options to becoming a patron of the show. We want to say a huge thank you to those patrons who have already pledged to support us: Ryker and Kerry Jowett Thanks again for tuning in; we’ll deep-see you next time! Check out our podcast merch here! Which now includes Alan’s beloved apron and a much anticipated new design...
