Discover a set of resources designed to give you background information on all things Arctic!
You always hear about the Arctic in the newspaper. You know there is a lot going on in this far region of the world; the ice is melting, the permafrost is thawing, the ocean is warming with tons of consequences on the marine ecosystems... But all these scientists that are exposing this situation, who are they, how do they work and what is their personal perspective about all this? Now is your chance to hear their story, ask your questions, and be aware of the most recent research carried out in the northernmost regions of this planet.
Who are these scientists? How do they work? What is their personal perspective on all these changes? This is your chance to hear their story, ask questions, and learn about the most recent research carried out in the northernmost regions of our planet.
The mini ArcticNet conference gathers scientists who are part of the ArcticNet scientific network and gives a young audience a chance to hear their latest findings alongside inspiring fieldwork stories. Come and learn about the Arctic with us!
