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

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

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

For this purpose, juvenile [...] crustaceans as well. In addition to the growth rate of the animals, we also focus on the digestibility of the feed. The prototype of the trap has been in Belgium since 2019

Once there, the ice is stored and tested at what is likely one of the coldest workplaces in the world. Bundled up in thick clothing, the researchers [...] hundreds of thousands of years ago. In this regard, the water’s oxygen isotopy can help. Since the ratio of different heavy isotopes of the same
