Sérgio Henrique Faria is Ikerbasque Research Professor at the Basque Centre for Climate Change (BC3), Spain. He is also Adjoint Presidential Professor at the Nagaoka University of Technology, Japan, and Associate Editor-in-Chief of Journal of Glaciology, as well as Editorial Board Member of several journals in the fields of physics, mathematics, Earth and planetary sciences. Physicist by training and transdisciplinary scientist by conviction, Sérgio Henrique is mainly interested in the emergent multiscale phenomena that control the properties and dynamics of complex natural systems. He participated in the two last EPICA-DML deep-ice-core drilling expeditions to Antarctica (2003-04 and 2005-06).

Sepp Kipfstuhl is Senior Scientist at the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research (AWI), Germany. A key personality of European glaciology for more than 30 years, Sepp has participated in countless polar expeditions, including the First West-German Antarctic ResearchOverwintering at Georg von Neumeyer Station (1981--83) and all European deep-ice-core drilling projects in Greenland and Antarctica since GRIP (Greenland Ice-core Project) in the early 1990s. His scientific expertise covers virtually all aspects of ice-core research, with a special interest in the physical properties of ice and firn.

Anja Lambrecht was Scientist at the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) between 2000 and 2005. She has participated in several polar expeditions to Antarctica, including the 21. German Antarctic Research Overwintering at Neumayer Station II (2000-2002). Currently she works in seismic processing and field QC for reflection seismic measurements. Anja is mainly interested in Geo-Information Systems to network data from different disciplines.
