Scientists travel to the Antarctic to perform field work based on the investigative question for which they have procured government funding.
Field work includes gathering data and materials to investigate the facts required to address the question at hand.
Scientists investigate questions in the Antarctica that relate to the health of planet earth.
For example, from Wikipedia:
"In Biology, fieldwork typically involves studying of free-living wild animals in which the subjects are observed in their natural habitat, without changing, harming, or materially altering the setting or behavior of the animals under study."
