Amazing to have @IGOT_ULisboa @ceg_igot polar team involved in such an important project with contributions to WP1 and WP8! Transnational access to both Arctic and Antarctic stations and vessels to be provided. Follow us to know more.

Ship-time opportunities with RV Skagerak for Swedish and international researchers
RV Skagerak will travel to Svalbard in mid-August for a project at University of Gothenburg (GU). Departure from Gothenburg will be July/early August.

Expressions of interest for two ship-time opportunities:
1. Piggy-back on the Transit: No cost for ship-time or fuel; costs for personal food and berth only, however research undertaken must be on a non-interfering basis (i.e. no changes to the transit route or significant impact on time). For research that requires some changes to the route or schedule, a fee can be agreed.

2. Ship day bookings: Either during transit to Svalbard or in waters near Svalbard, researchers can book days on Skagerak to undertake research in any waters south of (and including) Svalbard. The conditions are simple, transit to Svalbard is free, one mob day in Longyearbyen is free and days at sea are 130 000 SEK each, however this rate will be shared between the users. Fuel is additional.

If you are interested in this unique opportunity to use Skagerak in Arctic waters without having to pay the transit costs, don’t hesitate to contact Louise Newman ([email protected]) or Niklas Andersson ([email protected]) as soon as possible or by 6th May. Please note - Even if you are unable to afford the full day rate but are able to contribute something please contact us, as there are others who are also in this situation and costs can be shared. 📸Calle Thorén

Doing fieldwork in Fairbanks, Alaska. Sampling permafrost and ice tens of thousands years old in a Permafrost tunnel, and lakes, with the aim of understanding the OM and Hg dynamics. Thanks @polar2e for funding and Katey and Sarah from @uafairbanks. @istecnico @cqe_lisboa @deqist
