Antarctic dedication<\/a><\/h1>\n

By, Connor Murphy<\/p>\n

When\u00a0UND Today<\/em>\u00a0last heard from atmospheric sciences graduate Janelle Hakala<\/a>\u00a0in November 2017, she was in the first weeks of a year-long stay at the geographic South Pole.<\/p>\n

She anticipated the challenges ahead: being away from friends, family and society; working in one of the coldest places on Earth.<\/p>\n

UND helped prepare her for the journey, which was on the top of her mind as she dedicated one of the hundreds of weather probes she launched throughout the year to the faculty and mentors who helped her get there.<\/p>\n

Their names now permanently occupy the frozen continent, around 21 miles from the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, after ascending 17 miles collecting atmospheric data.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt UND, we were a pretty small department and a tight-knit group,\u201d she said of the atmospheric sciences crew. \u201cBeing part of that unit had me prepared for the small environment of Antarctica. A little bit of everything helped me during my time down there and I owe it all to those who helped me along the way.\u201d<\/p>\n

She included the faculty she had as professors, as well as a tribute to the late Leon Osborne, a UND Chester Fritz Distinguished Professor in atmospheric sciences. Chair Mike Poellet said everyone felt honored by the \u201camazing and creative\u201d gesture.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt takes a special kind of person to spend a year in that part of the world,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have to admit that I count it among my \u2018science nerd brags\u2019 that my name is laying out there, somewhere on the frozen tundra,\u201d Associate Professor and Graduate Program Director Gretchen Mullendore said, who served as Hakala\u2019s advisor. \u201cJanelle has embraced the adventure of exploring the world and I\u2019m incredibly proud to have been one of her mentors as she started out on that journey.\u201d<\/p>\n

Crucial support<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Hakala\u2019s data collection over the past year played an essential role for the research station, as the \u201csummer\u201d months between November and February signify aircraft arriving with food, supplies, scientists and other support staff. The readouts from twice-daily balloon launches were utilized in an atmospheric model, which served as an aid in forecasts. These observations kept pilots and officials abreast of the latest conditions at 90 degrees south latitude.<\/p>\n

During the winter, when there\u2019s zero sunlight and no air travel, Hakala and her team\u2019s launches shifted to directly serve the station. Instruments crucial to the station\u2019s research are vulnerable to wind and extreme temperatures; same goes for the maintenance equipment keeping blowing snow at bay.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe station also used the data to forecast for food,\u201d she explained from the comforts of her Ely, Minn., home. \u201cWe had an elevator to bring food out of storage that didn\u2019t work if temperatures got down to minus 70 degrees Fahrenheit, so we would pull food a couple days early if needed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Without intending the pun, Hakala describes the station as one of the coolest places to live. Despite the extreme conditions, she was outside every day for her job. During those dark, isolated winter months, the southern lights danced and dazzled almost daily. She thoroughly enjoyed her adventure in the \u201cwhite desert.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of people joke that you don\u2019t spend one year there,\u201d she said. \u201cYou spend one long day and one long night. I can tell people stories about it, but unless you\u2019re there to experience it, it\u2019s hard to explain.\u201d<\/p>\n

Living and working with the same 40 people for months on end; having big celebrations for the annual sunrise in September and the sunset in March; having little resembling a circadian rhythm; remaining physically detached from the outside world; Hakala makes it clear just how different it really was.<\/p>\n

Warm ambition<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Despite the lower amounts of activity during winter\u2014balloon launches happened once a day instead of twice\u2014there were plenty of ways to stay busy. Evening events were reminiscent of how colleges keep freshmen engaged on campus, Hakala said. Activities ranged from basketball to screen printing, and the diverse background of community members left nary a dull moment. The limited population during winter also meant increased responsibility for maintaining the station; Hakala found herself training to be a firefighter weekly and assisting with waste management.<\/p>\n

One popular use of free time was planning vacations, Hakala said. Thursday nights were \u201ctravel nights,\u201d where people could present the places they\u2019ve been, which proved an excellent source of inspiration.<\/p>\n

\u201cI saw what people did in Nepal and the Himalayas,\u201d she recalled. \u201cIt looked gorgeous. I had friends who would talk about it; I thought it would be amazing to see the tallest mountains in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the station positioned at 9,300 feet above sea level, hiking in Nepal sounded like a great post-Antarctic vacation. Hakala, along with friends she made over the past year, left the southern-most continent in November 2018 for their destination.<\/p>\n

The mountain vistas and hospitality of the local guides made her journey in the Himalayas better than hoped, but it was their stop before Nepal that brought back everything she had missed while living in Antarctica.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe big highlight was getting to New Zealand and having fresh fruits and vegetables,\u201d she said, having spent two weeks on the island nation connecting Antarctica and the rest of the world. \u201cAll the smells \u2013 you lose those while you\u2019re down there. Seeing flowers and green was great to have again. We also got to have some time at the beach.\u201d<\/p>\n

UND experience<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Of the work experiences she\u2019s had around weather sciences and meteorology, her stint in Antarctica affirmed what she\u2019ll be looking for moving forward: something new, exploratory and scientific.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was my second job coming out of school and I\u2019m still figuring things out with my career,\u201d she said. \u201cUND gave me an opportunity to do that too. Not only did I feel prepared academically, but I got a chance at UND to be involved and get experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

She was part of the UND Weather Update team, an intern at the National Weather Service office in Grand Forks and tried a variety of things within the atmospheric science and meteorology departments that offered her a look into different opportunities with different work.<\/p>\n

\u201cUltimately, they all revolve around science or weather because that\u2019s what I love,\u201d Hakala said.<\/p>\n
