Science Questions

How are surface ice ablation and meltwater redistribution impacting biogeochemistry and tracer inventory of sea ice and underlying water?

What are you most excited about the expedition?

Comparing findings from MOSAiC to SHEBA (1997/98) to better understand changes in how the ice functions; getting the ice to hold up will be a major challenge

What do you love most about the Arctic?

How everything is interconnected.
