My neighbor’s son Cameron Lewis took these photos of his base camp while working on a Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets (CReSIS) project in West Antarctica.
The Center for Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets (CReSIS) is a Science and Technology Center established by the National Science Foundation (NSF) in 2005, with the mission of developing new technologies and computer models to measure and predict the response of sea level change to the mass balance of ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica.
Very cool Cameron, I know your parents are really proud! **His parents want everyone to remember the Ice Sheets are melting at an alarming rate and you CAN make a difference even in small ways by drinking tap water (something I need to do more of), recycling and purchasing carbon offsets (I did this recently when purchasing airline tickets).
