Part 1. Adventures in science and mountaineering.

Ulyana Horodyskyj
Ulyana Horodyskyj uses her skills as both a scientist and a mountaineer to research the impacts of climate change in some of the world’s most extreme environments. She talks about her recent visit to an Andes mountainside, where a plane crashed 50 years ago. Out of 45 passengers, sixteen survived after 75 harrowing days.

Ulyana Horodyskyj is currently based at the North Central Climate Adaptation Science Center at the University of Colorado Boulder (Photo courtesy of Ulyana Hordyskyj).
