Today's storyteller is Dr Mike Gooseff! He's a professor at the University of Colorado and specializes in hydrology in streams, glaciers and frequently in polar regions, in this case Antarctica! He's also the lead on the McMurdo Dry Valleys Long Term Ecological Research Project, which studies the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems in the McMurdo Dry Valleys of Antarctica. We talk long-term monitoring (which I love to talk about), the types of data they're collecting. I also am always curious about how people break into the Antarctic research world so we talk about that. Towards the end we go on a wide ranging conversation about how to communicate all the kinds of career possibilities out there and how facilitate conversations with students of all ages about everything that's out there and how it all works (like grad school). Enjoy!
