Also hear soundscape recordings and excerpts from interviews with scientists studying climate in Antarctica this season. Then I take it to the streets and asks New Yorkers how the changing climate affects their lives.

Yesterday I took an amazing trip out to Storm Peak lab with Dr. Christine Wiedinmyer, the only mountaintop air monitoring and research lab in North America. Christine and two CU graduate students were completing a short term study of particulates in the upper troposphere, with special instruments that allow very sensitive detection in order to study various organic, inorganic, natural and anthropogenic compounds, some coming from as far as Asia. In addition to interviewing Christine, Kelly and Eszter on video, I had the opportunity to talk to our DRI (Desert Research Institute) hosts, Gannet Hallar Ian McCubbin.

Here is a preview of the met station screen design, showing Hassan on Taylor Glacier, with an overlay of live data from the met station. Temperature, heat index, thw (a combination of several variables), wind chill, barometer and humidity are represented by color bars on the right of the screen, wind speed is represented by the height of the wave created by the animation of lines. Oh, and the text is from Richard Byrd’s Antarctic diary published in 1938, called ‘Alone.’
