The focus of Matthew’s trip was a study of the local wildlife, particularly the habits of penguins and the effect of global warming on their habits and numbers.
He said: “We visited a colony with over 10,000 penguins, where no one had ever been to work on before. We did GPS readings, mapping the area and compared it to older readings.”
Matthew’s team found some of the habits of the penguins had adapted to changes in the area’s climate, but that their numbers had not been affected.
