Martin Siegert
Martin J. Siegert is a British glaciologist, and Deputy Vice Chancellor (Cornwall) at the University of Exeter. He co-Chairs the Diversity in Polar Science Initiative, and has spoken about socio-economic inclusion in Polar Science and indeed broader society.He has produced over 300 academic publications and contributed to the development of an airborne surveying technology that has surveyed over half of Antarctica. He is credited with discovering a number of Antarctic subglacial lakes, which as of 2024 total over 600. Siegert's research has shown that subglacial lakes are vast quantities of water frozen several kilometers beneath the surface of the Antarctic ice sheet, can be linked together hydraulically and likely store unique assemblages of microbial life and contain records of ancient ice and climate change.
