Polar scientist needed - Antarctic iceberg specialist

Dear UKPN members, 


We have received a request for an Antarctic iceberg specialist to speak with Georgina, a science reporter for the BBC, in the new year. If interested please read the message below reach out to Georgina! 


***************************


Good afternoon,

 

I'm a climate and science reporter with BBC News. I'm doing a story in January about the A23a iceberg, and I'm keen to speak to an expert about the iceberg's movements and the bigger picture of increased carving in Antarctica.

I'd like to talk to an early career expert if possible, which is why I'm emailing you. Is there anyone you can recommend who is happy to talk to media?

I appreciate it's almost the Christmas break – I'd be keen to talk early in the new year, not immediately today!


Please get in touch with me at georgina.rannard@bbc.co.uk

 

Best wishes,

Georgina
