We are very glad to inform that UTM Antarctica Expedition Team has successfully conducted field studies in Antarctica from 25 Feb -17 March 2015. The studies include sun photometric measurement for aerosol and coastal water quality sampling; soil, water and sediment sampling for microbiological work; ROV testing under cold Antarctic water; and monitoring of human physiological changes under extreme conditions.
The expedition also include four days of sailing across the Drake Passage from Ushuaia, Argentina to the Antarctic islands, and another four days of cruising back to Ushuaia upon completion of the field studies.
We would like to thank everybody who has prayed for the safety and well being of the expedition team.
