Find out about the geology of glaciers as four intrepid teachers go on the field-trip of a lifetime in Antarctica.The first half of the programme looks at the geography of glaciers, using the case studies of glaciers in both Norway and Antarctica to show what it's like to be on a glacier and the environment. It also looks in more detail at Antarctica, and the geography of the continent.The second part then goes on to look at the experience of some British teachers conducting geographical field work in Antarctica. The teachers, while studying the abundance of cryoconite holes on the glacier, discover how tough geography field work can be in the Antarctic climate.
