ANDRILL

ANDRILL (an Antarctic Drilling program) is the newest geological drilling program in an ongoing effort to recover stratigraphic records from the Antarctic region. You can follow the research of an international team of scientists and educators from Germany, Italy, New Zealand and the United States as they recover stratigraphic records from McMurdo Sound, Antarctica.

Go to www.andrill.org/iceberg to watch six educators bring exciting real-world science into your classroom through interactive blogging, video journals, photo collections, and engaging materials produced on the ice with ANDRILL scientists during the October - January drilling season.
