#Tourism surge is driving up #pollution in #Antarctica scientists warn

> A boom in tourism over the past two decades is increasing pollution in Antarctica and accelerating the melting of snow, scientists have warned. Much of the pollution caused by the increase in human presence comes from transport powered by #fossilfuels releasing fine particles containing heavy metals into the #environment.

Next week our ECR group are starting a #MachineLearning sprint to speed up the development of our new #IceSheet surface mass budget emulation models.

I'm looking for hints, ideas tips and inspiration to help smooth and accelerate the process.

If you're used to working in #Sprint mode, what in your opinion makes it work or otherwise hinders it?

What can I as supervisor do to make it run better?
And how should we celebrate it's conclusion?

Also, should me do an #AMA on the process?
