RRS James Clark Ross is a supply and research ship operated by the British Antarctic Survey.
History
RRS James Clark Ross is named after the British explorer James Clark Ross.[4] She replaced the RRS John Biscoe in 1991.
In March 2018, RRS James Clark Ross was due to sample the marine life around the world's biggest iceberg, A-68, but was unable to reach the site due to thick sea ice in the Weddell Sea.[5]
