Independent scientists use the ship, helicopter, boats and assistance of the crew, to collect data and research the impacts of climate change. During this second section of the three-part tour, scientists conduct important glaciology research in Eastern Greenland, on Helheim and Kangerdlugsuaq glaciers and their fjords. The team then transits north to work on the Nioghalvfjerdsfjorde Glacier (known as '79 Glacier.')Related Collections:Best of Arctic Impacts Expedition
