Triumphant Conclusion to the 2024-2025 ANET-POLENET Antarctic Field Season

Byrd Center's ANET-POLENET team, under the leadership of Professor Emeritus Terry Wilson (Earth Sciences) began its field season in November 2024 in West Antarctica, operating from Union Glacier Camp, managed by Antarctic Logistics & Expeditions (ALE).

The ANET-POLENET team's objective was to make the GNSS and seismic sites fully operational and to retrieve the seismic data for analysis.



In Early January 2025, the team completes their field season work. A final text from lead-PI Terry Wilson reads:
"After 5 weeks at Union Glacier, we completed our site servicing for the season only 2 days before our scheduled departure. The team turned to the big task at the end of the field season - packing up all the equipment for shipping off the ice, first to Punta Arenas and then onward to the U.S."
