Carbon cycling in fjords impacted by glacial meltwater input

Start/end date:

Sunday, February 1, 2015 - 00:00 to Saturday, December 31, 2016 - 00:00

Event type:

Godthåbsfjord is an efficient carbon sink due to high biological uptake and high input of subglacial meltwater. Monthly surveys in the fjord will be made during 2016 to assess the sources and sinks of carbon in Godthåbsfjord.

Contact: Lorenz Meire
