My step-sister is currently working at McMurdo Station and has provided me with photos of her experience. In her recent e-mails she points out the current issue with B-15A. However, she failed to point out the impact this is having on the wildlife there.
"Since then B-15A has found its way to McMurdo Sound, where its presence has blocked ocean currents and led to a build-up of sea ice. This has led to turn to resupply difficulties for the United States and New Zealand scientific stations in the vicinity and the starvation of numerous local penguins unable to forage the local sea."[link]
