Nearly 60 scientists and support staff are on their way to Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica as part of the ambitious international effort to understand the glacier and surrounding ocean system to determine its future contributions to global sea-level rise. This season represents the fourth of five planned field seasons for the research.

Tara is pursuing her PhD at the University of Texas at El Paso with interests in lunar geology, seismology, medical geology, remote sensing, and field geology. She is serving as a field scientist on the TIME team. Tara hopes her research will help astronauts become specialists in lunar geology and that her research will help them deploy a seismic array on the lunar surface, much like what is being accomplished on Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica.

Meghana's research focuses on uncovering the underlying physical processes governing ice flow and fracture, spanning scales from the micro-scale ice physics to macro-scale ice sheet behavior. Much of her work investigates the processes activated by rapid ice deformation, which typically take place in shear margins, from a modeling perspective. With the TIME project, she is assisting in the gathering of field measurements of the processes that she hopes to model, and the data from TIME will be invaluable in informing these parameterizations and a mathematical picture of ice deformation.
