Our journalists are joining nearly 40 scientists on an expedition to Antarctica’s fastest-melting glaciers. Getting there will require taking a helicopter over icy seas. Raymond Zhong, our climate reporter, shared a look inside his survival training. Raymond and Chang W. Lee, our photographer, will be sharing dispatches throughout the journey as they observe what the researchers learn — and what they face at sea and on the ice. Along the way, they want to hear from you, too. Leave a question for our Climate team in the comments, and follow along at nytimes.com/antarctica.
