Due to the current lockdown our Masters students are unable to carry out dissertation fieldwork. Do any of our wonderful alumni in consultancies have any data they could share for desk based research? 🙏 RT [email protected]





It's been a good couple of days supporting the UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology team who have been busy setting up an algae trap in Bayelva and doing some water sampling below Feiringbreen as part of the BIOPOLE project. #UKinArctic British Antarctic Survey 🐧 Natural Environment Research Council.


A fantastic weekend spent with Simon Armatige, the poet laureate, recording for BBC Radio 4. We saw some amazing icebergs and our first polar bear of the trip! Lots more to do for the rest of the month. BIOPOLE UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology British Antarctic Survey 🐧 NERC Arctic Research Station


A second #FieldworkFriday post because this place deserves it! Ny Alesund is such a stunning place to work. Two more weeks to go and lots more to do! Now back to the lab to filter all the water samples we've collected today. BIOPOLE NERC Arctic Research Station UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology


And that's a wrap on the first BIOPOLE land based field campaign! What an incredible month. Over 1500 samples collected including water, sediment, #GHG, and eDNA. Big thanks to everyone who has helped us make this a success! UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology NERC Arctic Research Station British Antarctic Survey 🐧


❄️ Dipping our toes into Arctic waters... In the first of two blog posts, Alanna Grant and colleagues describe a month of thrilling polar science in Svalbard as part of the BIOPOLE project!

Back from BIOPOLE campaign, sampling Tana river with UK Centre for Ecology & Hydrology . Great work by Alanna Grant to find us "cabin lab"...turns out saunas make for a great water purification system set up. Successful sciencing, and even some reindeer pals!
