Each person performed distinct scientific duties, but there was, of course, a great deal of familiarisation by each member outside his own field.
Each member quickly became able to participate in every aspect of the expedition's work. Normally the party was divided each day into two or three groups working on different projects and occasionally split up into elements which were detached for a few days and which kept in close contact by daily radio communication.
