Planning a polar field season can feel exhilarating — and overwhelming. Join PSECCO and the NSF Ice-Shelf Rumpling Project for a 1.5‑hour panel designed specifically for early‑career researchers preparing for fieldwork in the Arctic or Antarctic. 

This conversation brings together experienced field scientists to dig into what actually makes a field campaign run smoothly. Panelists will discuss essential pre‑field training, how to build clear communication structures within your team, and strategies for responding when plans inevitably shift in extreme environments or unforeseen challenges arise. 

Participants will walk away with practical tools for preparing before deployment, guidance for navigating challenges in the field, and resources you can use to strengthen your next field campaign — whether it’s your first or your fifteenth.
