Discover Science: Baker Perry and Julie Loisel on fieldwork in extreme environments
Manage episode 462359593 series 3149133
The top of Mount Everest is a cold, unforgiving place to conduct scientific research. So are the mangrove jungles deep in the Amazon, accessible only by boat. But for scientists, those regions can be some of the most important sources of data when it comes to the climate crisis.
Nevada State Climatologist and geography professor Baker Perry and his colleague, fellow geography professor Julie Loisel, share some of their insights into extreme fieldwork locations and why the science there is too important to ignore.
This episode is hosted by Hitchcock Project for Visualizing Science student Ali Dickson.
