SALSA rocking the poster hall at the American Geophysical Union (AGU) Conference today! The science results are coming in...stay tuned for more! SALSA is at AGU, the massive American Geophysical Union conference presenting our scientific findings! More soon! If you’re in Sacramento on September 26th, come see @kathykasic give a free public talk complete with SALSA science team film clips and science stories, all part of the Sac State STEM lecture series. Light shining through a tent's snow wall towards the end of camp. Its interesting to see how much the snow blocks degraded over time from the wind.

Dry socks can really make or break a good day at a field camp...Photo by Kathy Kasic, SALSA Education and Outreach. #antarctica #research #camp #camping #wintercamping #nsfsalsa Postdoc Alex Michaud with the Multicorer instrument that Alex and the team used to retrieve ten perfect sediment cores from Mercer Subglacial Lake.

Stay tuned for many papers and exciting findings to come! #nsfsalsa #antarctica Shoveling snow into our melt tank was a daily occurrence at camp. This melted snow was used as the drilling fluid in our hot water drill that bored through 3,500 feet of ice to access Mercer Subglacial Lake.
