Green house gas exchange and the carbon cycle in the Arctic coastal areas

Green house gas exchange and the carbon cycle in the Arctic coastal areas

Start/end date: 
Thursday, May 1, 2014 - 00:00 to Thursday, July 3, 2014 - 00:00
Event type: 

The overall aim is to determine the extent changing sea ice condition affects the surface fluxes over different marine  surfaces within a high Arctic fjord system. We will examine to what extent temperature influences the surface flux of carbon, and other climatically important gases, in addition to an on-going focus onto the effects of sea ice life stages on the surface exchange of carbon containing gases within the marine cryosphere.
