Daniel Scholz (Photo: Alfred-Wegener-Institut) Daniel Scholz - Within the FRAM project (Frontiers in Arctic Monitoring), my responsibilities are the development, deployment, calibration [...] in-situ sensor platforms that are used to monitor nutrients and carbonate chemistry parameters in the Fram Strait and the Central Arctic Ocean. To monitor such parameters in the ocean, it is common practice

  • Proxy Development

    saltier water masses from the Atlantic are pushing further north into the Arctic Ocean through the Fram Strait. This is a recent and ongoing phenomenon, and understanding its pace and extent requires archives
