The samples will be sent to GNS Science, a New Zealand Crown Research Institute, for analysis.
•
Liautaud and Stoup plan to deploy and test a lightweight weather station, the ColdFacts-3000BX, developed at the Delft University of Technology and previously untested in Antarctica.
•
Another aspect of live coverage will be interactive visualizations, provided by global IT provider EMC Corporation, of data gathered on the expedition.
•
The weather station will be deployed near Union Glacier camp and tested over a period of five weeks, relaying meteorological data every 30 minutes.
•
Once the scientific survey is complete, the Willis Resilience Expedition will set off on December 3, 2013 from the Ross Ice Shelf where Liautaud and Stoup will ski 640 km to the South Pole, crossing the Transantarctic Mountains, which ascend to 4,500 meters at the summit.
