“Going with the Floe<\/strong> ” tells the fascinating story of how the research vessel Lance<\/strong>\u2014the Norwegian Polar Institute\u2019s research vessel at the time\u2014deliberately allowed itself to become frozen into the pack ice north of Svalbard in order to study one of the world\u2019s most rapidly changing climate regions.<\/p>\n

For centuries, when a ship became trapped in Arctic sea ice, it almost always meant disaster. During the N-ICE2015 expedition<\/strong>, the opposite happened\u2014the researchers actually wanted to drift with the ice. At approximately 83\u00b0 north<\/strong>, the Lance<\/em> served as a floating research station while an international team of scientists studied sea ice, ocean currents, the atmosphere, snow, ecosystems, and climate change in the Arctic Ocean. <\/p>\n

Through photographs, illustrations, and easy-to-understand text, the book offers a unique glimpse into life on board and the demanding work out on the ice. It explains how researchers collected data under extreme Arctic conditions and why knowledge about sea ice is crucial to understanding the climate of the future. <\/p>\n

The book was written by Gunn Sissel Jaklin<\/strong>, Harald Steen<\/strong>, Mats Granskog<\/strong>, and Sebastian Gerland<\/strong>, and was published by the Norwegian Polar Institute<\/strong>. It combines spectacular photographs with popular science explanations and offers a rare glimpse into modern polar research. <\/p>\n

“Going with the Floe<\/strong> ” is suitable for nature enthusiasts, students, researchers, and anyone fascinated by the Arctic, expeditions, and climate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
