In the western European Arctic waters (2009-2011)


Along the Svalbard coasts on board Jan Mayen (Sept-October 2010)

 

The University of Svalbard in Longyearbyen proposes every two years a master-PhD course on Arctic Marine zooplankton of Svalbard Waters. It is an intensive 1month and a half course comprising 2 weeks cruise focused on zooplankton sampling and experimental work. As part of one working group, we particularly focused on net samplings and acoustic measurements. This work has been valorized as a publication.

ATP project - Arctos course cruise on board Jan Mayen (May 2010)

 

This cruise was organized for the ATP project combined with the Arctos cruise course. We stayed mostly west of the Svalbard shelf edge but we also navigated close to the Barents Sea.
