Scientific expedition to the Arctic: analyzing air and fjords in the face of global warming
Légende
In the Arctic, climate change is manifesting itself with increasing intensity. To study its impacts and understand the role of this region in global warming, two teams of scientists from the École polytechnique de Lausanne have gone into the field. One is tasked with gaining a deeper understanding of the composition of Arctic air, while the other is concentrating on quantifying the greenhouse gases stored in the fjords, fed by glacial waters.
