Australian earth scientist Chris Turney has written three books to critical acclaim Bones, Rocks and Stars: The Science of When Things Happened; Ice, Mud and Blood: Lessons from Climates Past; and 1912: The Year the World Discovered Antarctica. With over 160 scientific papers on environmental change, Turney has received numerous awards for his research, including the first INQUA Sir Nicholas Shackleton Medal for pioneering research into climate change (2007), the Geological Society of Londons Bigsby Medal (2009), and the Australian Academy of Sciences Frederick White Prize (2014).
Turney is passionate about science communication, contributing to The New York Times, The Times and New Scientist, and has an international following on social media under Intrepid Science. He is currently Professor of Climate Change and Earth Sciences at the University of New South Wales.
In 2013, Australian earth scientist Chris Turney led an ambitious expedition to Antarctica. It promised so much discovery, history, adventure but came with great risk.
The story of Turneys ship, the Shokalskiy, and the plight of the 71 people on board was broadcast around the world. We watched, listened and read as they became trapped on Christmas Eve, the hull of the ship pierced by a tower of ice. Efforts to rescue them were thwarted by fierce blizzards and roaming icebergs.
It was the modern, wired version of Shackletons ill-fated voyage and rescue, with one massive difference: Shackletons wife and children were not with him.
To the extraordinary members of the Australasian
Antarctic Expedition 20132014 and the wonderful
crews of the Akademik Shokalskiy, the Xue Long,
the Aurora Australis and the Astrolabe.
Thank you.
