Science at Sea: Tracking Phytoplankton in Antarctica With National Geographic Explorer Dr. Daniel Dick
National Geographic Explorer and Visiting Scientist Dr. Daniel Dick studies climate change through one incredibly small but important lens: phytoplankton. Aboard the National Geographic Resolution in Antarctica, he collects and analyzes these microscopic organisms—often early indicators of environmental change—while inviting guests to take part in the process. In this video, Lindblad Expeditions' CEO Natalya Leahy talks with Dr. Dick about his discoveries and the role of the Visiting Scientist Program in advancing conservation and informing solutions for a changing climate.
