Image of The Day caption:
Associate Scientist Mak Saito saw plenty of Adélie penguins during his International Polar Year expedition to Antarctica in 2009. His study focused on the collection of sea-ice and water column algae, but another project soon emerged. Saito and his wife, Elizabeth, co-authored Antarctic Adventure, a children's book that describes the adventure of fieldwork on the Southern Continent, what algae are, what glaciers look like, and the varied Antarctic wildlife, including whales and penguins.
