Camilla Nichol FRGS is a geologist and museum curator.

Since 2014 she is the Chief Executive of the United Kingdom Antarctic Heritage Trust.

[2] Following the years of 2015-2016, Nichol’s publication of "Using Heritage to Engage Antarctic Tourists with Climate Change" allowed for the conclusion that tourism is an effective way to increase awareness of the effects of climate change in the Antarctic region; thereby initiating a greater spread of knowledge about the negative effects taking place in the ice regions of our world.

[6] In 2018, along with a team of researchers, Camilla became invested in a long-term study of penguins in the Antarctic region.

Focusing mainly on the Gentoo Penguin (Pygoscelis papua), they were able to scrutinize the population trends of that particular species at a major tourist site in the Antarctic - Goudier Island.
