Explore a century of Times’s reporting from Antarctica
For much of January and February, Raymond Zhong, a New York Times climate reporter, and Chang W. Lee, a photographer, are traveling with a scientific expedition to study Antarctica’s fastest melting glacier. You can follow their progress here.
They are aboard the Araon, a South Korean icebreaker, with nearly 40 scientists from around the world. The destination is the Thwaites, an immense and remote glacier whose uncertain fate could affect global sea-level rise for generations to come.
Raymond and Chang are sending frequent dispatches and video from the expedition and answering your questions.
