I had a great time with Bridget Tiller yesterday at the @NCLPhysGeog Polar Environments Day speaking to secondary school children from Newcastle, including from my old school Sacred Heart, about #PolarPride and the importance of diversity in polar science!

Airborne geophysical surveys led by @UTGeophysics have helped locate an ancient Antarctic landscape.
The discovery is a window to when Antarctica was covered by forests and rivers, says a recent study in @NatureComms.
