Yet the future of all these survivors is uncertain; [...] availability have changed with them. When it comes to surviving in the Arctic, it’s a whole new ball game.

    . Microscopy, growth assessments, chemical analytics of seawater as well as the determinaion of organic carbon and nitrogen content are also part of the spectrum of my tasks in the group, [...] - On Svalbard, the atmosphere is warming ten times faster than the global average. The influx of warm Atlantic water and the rapid melting of glaciers [...] first introduced to the world of phytoplankton. I completed my master's degree at Université Laval in Quebec City, where I studied the extreme adaptations

  • Sea Ice

    Sea Ice Broad expanses of the Arctic Ocean and the Southern Ocean in the Antarctic are covered in sea ice. The ice plays a vital role in our climate system and [...] nearly 1.5 times the size of the USA. In summer there is extensive melting, especially in the Arctic’s southern reaches, until the minimum extent is [...] the sea ice covers roughly 10 percent of the world’s oceans. Then the ice begins melting again. In February, at the end of the Antarctic

  • Heinrich Award

    Hartmut Heinrich Award The unexpected discovery of Hartmut Heinrich has an enormous influence on the work of our section. Go to: Home Research focus Tools [...] appear to exhibit only a weak corresponding signal. Moreover, the 5–10,000-yr intervals between the events are inconsistent with Milankovitch orbital periodicities, raising the question of what the [...] . It inspired many researchers -also us- about abrupt climate changes, and climate dynamics. The acquisition of knowledge through the work of Heinrich has enabled to recognize

We [...] of international co-operation in the circumpolar regions of the world. The theme of the 16th ICRSS is Convergence at the Poles – Addressing urgent research questions and management needs through remote sensing in the Arctic and Antarctic. The 16th ICRSS is being hosted at the University of Alaska

  • Large Igneous Provinces

A LIP origin of the whole Mozambique Ridge could have had an immense influence on climate during the [...] collected dredge samples. The analysis of the first high-resolution multichannel seismic reflection reflection dataset covering the three southern segments of the [...] the question, whether distinct phases of magmatic or tectonic processes led to the deformation of the Manihiki Plateau and which role

The question of the characteristics and of the [...] better understanding of the climate of the Pliocene in the context of the climate forcings of the future. This is an important step to do since climate forcings
