Palmer Station

Palmer Station is a research facility operated by the United States, located on Anvers Island near Antarctica. It serves as a base for scientists studying climate change, glaciers, marine life, and ecosystems in the Southern Ocean. The station provides essential infrastructure for year-round scientific work in one of the most extreme environments on Earth. Its remote location helps researchers gather valuable data to understand global environmental processes, contributing to scientific knowledge about polar regions and their influence on the planet’s climate. Palmer Station is a key hub for advancing polar science and monitoring environmental changes in Antarctica.
