... in the configuration of the Kara Sea Ice Sheet and the adjoining Barents Sea Ice Sheet has resulted in striking discrepancies among ice sheet models during the LGM and earlier cycles. These discrepancies hinder understanding of ...
... One of our key tasks during the two-week reconnaissance trip was to establish contacts with research institutions working in the region. The people we spoke to at the university in Petropavlovsk are looking forward to a partnership in which ...

... is very important, as this influences the likelihood of isolating live pathogens. This has been a problem when working in the Antarctic, as the nearest laboratory is situated in South America. To overcome this problem we set up a small ...
