Robots in the Ross Sea w/ Miles Lamar: September 2nd, 2022

Antarctica New Zealand has recently deployed new underwater robots to document the bottom of the ross sea. 

The new robots conduct “speed-sampling” , a new style of sampling allowing quick capturing of areas regular divers cannot receive. 

These robots are being deployed in efforts to understand as much of the ross sea as possible, before the changing climate makes that task impossible. 

Liam had a kōrero with MIles Lamar, an investigator on the Antarctica New Zealand programme, about the robot and the climate.
