Antarctica teaching app

CLAST (Climate in Antarctica from Sediments and Techtonics) is an interactive educational app developed to explain topics of Geology and Earth Sciences to schools.

CLAST provides a representation of the results of ANDRILL, a scientific research program on paleoclimate that studied two over 1000 m long cores of rock from the seabed.
