The snow of Svalbard tells a climate story and is a true natural laboratory for studying how climate influences the seasonal chemistry of snow.
A new article acp.copernicus.org/articles/25/... describes these changes.

Two new studies by our colleagues have demonstrated that emerging pollutants — such as pharmaceuticals, personal-care products, and endocrine disruptors, reach the Arctic cryosphere via medium- to long-range atmospheric transport.

TRACE-AtlantIC was a success! 🌊🚢
Using U-236 & I-129 tracers, we track Atlantification—how Atlantic waters reshape Arctic fjords.
CTD surveys in Kongsfjorden-Krossfjorden
Water samples collected
Key climate data secured
