Not really sure where we are at the moment, but somewhere further north. I’ve noticed that the nights are getting lighter. We had a gorgeous sunny day ...

... our shelf transects along the East Siberian Sea shelf following the Leg 2 cruise plan. Who could ever dream of that we would be able to complete all that we wrote into the cruise plan? But the fact is that we have! A big part of this ...

Sverige vaknar till en ny dag med en helt förändrad politisk situation om vi fått rätt information. Vi har med stor spänning tagit emot den information som gått att få tag på. Även om vi ...

Had a scare the day before yesterday when someone told me we wouldn’t see more ice. Open water from now on. Turns out we’re going back north for a rendez-vous with the Lomonosov Ridge though, which thankfully ...

Yesterday, we had visitors from the German research vessel Polarstern. It was a fortuitous meeting since we can coordinate in detail our research efforts here at the southern end of the Lomonosov Ridge – more of good research, and better use ...

-4 ºC och 15 m/s. Havsvattnet är så kallt att det börjar frysa även om det går vågor på vattnet. Foto: Amund E.B. Lindberg 82°36’N, 142°14’E Vi ...

Birds close to Oden during one of our sampling stations. This sampling station was the last we made in the very loose pack ice at about 80°30’N, 154ºE before we ...

Foto: Leif Anderson Senaste veckan har det blivit allt mer tydligt att vintern börjar närma sig. Vi har arbetat oss upp längs Lomonosovryggen i stort sett i helt öppet vatten upp till ...

We reached the sea ice edge over the Lomonosov Ridge at about 85°N 20 September. This location is only 15 nautical miles south from where we crossed the Lomonosov Ridge in 1996 ...

Tomorrow I was supposed to turn 30 years old. Funny thing is that my birthday got canceled as we’re turning the clock 14hrs forward! It’s going to be a very late night tonight and then ...

Här kommer mitt sista resebrev från SWERUS-C3. Allt praktiskt forskningsarbete är avslutat och vi har endast resan över en liten bit av Karahavet och Barents hav kvar. Senast på lördag skall vi vara i Tromsö! ...

Nu färdas vi mot civilisationen. Det är ett litet samhälle, nästan som en liten by, som har färdats genom den Arktiska oceanen. 70 människor har ...

... today. Instead: another baking hot summer’s day in Christchurch. Our shuttle to the US Antarctic Program base out at the airport was due to pick us up at 6.15 this morning… then it was 8.15… 11… “I’m sorry, you won’t be ...

... Boomerang bags were not needed, though it was apparently a close call. We landed on McMurdo Ice Shelf (a tongue of floating ice, a couple of hundred metres’ thick over nearly a kilometre of water to the ocean floor) in snowfall and ...

We’ve been at sea for two days now. At sea and at science: we turned the multibeam on as soon as we had got through the sea ice around ...

... not part of our science. Though perhaps no one’s told it so – it seems to want to creep up on us from any direction, at any moment. Sea ice has been a tale of our first couple of days’ science, chasing us out of open water embayments and ...

... Ross Sea, one of the westernmost parts of the World: we just crossed the 180 longitude line, and therefore the International Date Line. The ship’s operating on New Zealand time, and the geophysical equipment is operating on GMT. I’m working ...

Den 30 oktober 2014 skadades ca hälften av antennerna i atmosfärradarn MARA under en storm med vindbyar på upp till 47 m/s. Dipolantennen av aluminiumrör, det övre röret på ...

Travelled a little too far it would seem: back to an internet-less World. We’ve entered the absolute epicentre of a satellite no-coverage zone, stuck between the Americas and Asia-Pacific, and we’re set to be here for some time. ...

BBQ lunch, and an afternoon gathering up on the Bridge while we get play commentary over the phone. The internet’s down, you know…
