Another long work day but this time inside our workshop, getting ready to finalise the start of a new measurement programme. With the melange field programme now more or less done for the next few months (until the fast ice breaks up), it's time to turn to snow...

So today has mostly been spent working on new equipment designed to measure drifting snow, hopefully now ready for deployment tomorrow or Tuesday after some snow on sea ice work planned for tomorrow.

Here's a low Arctic sun moment to ponder: my #dmidk #nckf colleague Steffen Olsen walking away from Heilprin glacier melange zone earlier this week.

Planning #Fieldwork in NW #Greenland and stumbled over this stunning #Sentinel2 image from September last year processed on #SentinelHub #EOBrowser

Look at that cute little #cyclone by #ThuleAirBase

Time for another #FridayFieldworkPhoto from #InglefieldBredning #Greenland from June 2021.

In the field, everyone lends a hand: Here we are hauling up the mooring that my #DMIdk colleague #SteffenOlsen leaves out every year to measure ocean temperature, salinity etc through the winter using #SeaIce as a #science platform.
The red buoy marks the position, the water here is 3-500m deep so pulling it up from the bottom takes some time + muscle power.
