EXTREME ICE SURVEY
.

.

Balog’s most ambitious project, the Extreme Ice Survey combines scientists, artists and explorers in a multi-year undertaking that will ultimately generate more than 400,000 images of retreating glaciers. Balog and his team installed 27 time-lapse camera systems at 18 glaciers in Greenland, Iceland, Alaska, the Rocky Mountains and British Columbia, as well as a dozen positions for annual repeat photography in Iceland, the Alps and Bolivia. The cameras photograph once an hour, every hour of daylight, for three years. The ultimate collection of images and video animations will be used to demonstrate the catastrophic effect of global warming on the earth’s glacial regions. It is the most wide-ranging glacier study ever conducted using ground-based, real-time photography.
