Abstract:
Previous SANAP student, who conducted her Masters research on the sub-Antarctic Marion Island. Selected as one of the 2019 Mail & Guardian 200 Young South Africans (Environment). Congratulations Sankwetea Wa-Mokgokong and thank you for sharing your story.
Lovely to see that your career started on Marion Island. I would just not agree that Marion's temperature is similar to the mainland - Marion is cold, windy and wet with an average temperature of 4 degrees, which is not the case in SA. Marion also gets rain on average 300 days a year.
