An aerial view of farmland affected by the drought in northeastern Colorado in July 2012. Green circles show irrigated crops next to yellowed, dryland wheat fields.
This week, we'll hear how some winter wheat farmers are faring in the new year, and talk to a researcher that helped set a new ballooning record in Antarctica.
John E. Ward, Ryan Murphy, Thomas Hams and Sean Fitzsimmons are part of the skeletal team still in Antarctica as the Southern Hemisphere winter approaches.
