Field Logistics Coordinator
The Field Logistics Coordinator is a contract role anticipated through February 2027 with Arte Glacier Initiative is responsible for serving as the science team's primary logistics planner and ALE liaison. This is a planning and coordination role as much as a field role. The coordinator will work closely with our science team and ALE staff to ensure that every logistical requirement for the expedition is anticipated, communicated, and resolved - from cargo manifests and instrument shipping to field safety protocols and day-to-day communication at Thwaites. You will be the person who knows both the science team's needs and ALE's systems well enough to keep the two in sync.
Arte Glacier Initiative is supporting a multi-institutional glaciology research expedition to Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica, deploying in the upcoming austral summer (December/January). A science team of approximately five researchers will conduct geophysical fieldwork - including seismic sensor deployment, GNSS/GPS stations, and ground penetrating radar - at a fly-in field site accessed through Antarctic Logistics & Expeditions' (ALE) Union Glacier camp. Field logistics on the ice will be handled by ALE.
Climate change is destabilizing marine ice sheets, creating a risk of catastrophic sea-level rise over the next century. Arte Glacier Initiative is a new nonprofit initiative dedicated to understanding this risk and assessing the efficacy, safety, and feasibility of potential interventions to stabilize ice sheets. We aim to fund, coordinate, and accelerate research to enable informed societal decisions regarding these interventions.
Digital Harbor Foundation is dedicated to fostering learning, creativity, productivity, and community through education with a vision of digital equity for everyone. Driven by our sincere belief that access to opportunity is a basic right, we take bold yet practical actions to support making a better future now. Through a portfolio of projects focused on developing leadership within communities, we support those closest to challenges to take deliberate actions based in design thinking approach, backed by data analysis, grounded in a practice of collective impact, and driven by a commitment to racial equity.
