Climate and lake ecosystem dynamics, in the high Arctic, over the Holocene, using lake sediment records

2 May
22 days, Saturday 2 May 2015, at 00:00 - 23 May Station Nord, Greenland

This project aims to determine the sensitivity of the Greenland Ice Sheet and glaciers in northeastern Greenland to climate changes during our current…

Glacier melting rates, sea ice variability and ocean circulation in the Danmarks Fjord area, Northeast Greenland

11 Apr
22 days, Saturday 11 April 2015, at 10:02 - 2 May Station Nord, Greenland

The changing climate has resulted in a significant reduction of sea ice cover in the Arctic Ocean. However, information on the variability of sea ice…

SEA ICE GEOPHYSICS - DEPLOYMENT OF MASS BALANCE BUOYS

11 Apr
22 days, Saturday 11 April 2015, at 00:00 - 2 May Station Nord, Greenland

QUANTIFICATION OF IKAITE

11 Apr
22 days, Saturday 11 April 2015, at 00:00 - 2 May Station Nord, Greenland

Ikaite (CaCO3•6H2O) is a mineral that occurs naturally in Arctic and Antarctic sea ice. However, the spatial and temporal dynamics are poorly…

IMPACT OF OCEAN HEAT ON LANDFAST ICE AND TIDEWATER GLACIERS

11 Apr
43 days, Saturday 11 April 2015, at 00:00 - 23 May Station Nord, Greenland

The major objective of this project is to collect oceanographic data and consider the physical mechanisms that potentially impact the landfast sea ice…

Microbial atmospheric-terrestrial coupling driven by long distance transport and deposition

11 Apr
22 days, Saturday 11 April 2015, at 00:00 - 2 May Station Nord, Greenland

The observation that microbes are present in the atmosphere dates back to the time of Pasteur. However, for most of the time the atmosphere was only…
