The Arctic Research Icebreaker Consortium
(ARICE
) and Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS) invite for a webinar
on How to measure water exchange in the Fram Strait using novel tra
cers? on 2 December 2021 from 13:00 – 14:00 pm GMT.
The ARICE funded NoTAC project (Novel Tracers of Arctic Carbon and water exchange in the Fram Strait) is an inte rnational collaboration across several institutions from Denmark, Finland, Poland and USA with a diverse team varying from early career (ECS) to senio r scientists. The project focuses on assessing the application of novel, co st-effective water masses tracers, with special interest in tracking the Ar ctic outflow entering the Atlantic basin through a major gateway, the Fram Strait. Those tracers are, for example, dissolved organic matter compositio n, lignin phenols, radioisotopes, optical properties of water masses and mi crobial community (with focus on phytoplankton and bacteria). Apart from th e tracer component, the project also has another component focused on the c ycling of carbon and nutrients in the region, which are assessed through ex perimental work conduct during the Fram Strait cruise.
In this webinar, we will present the project itself, as well as the logistic challenges faced during the preparation for two cruises du ring the Covid-19 pandemic, including a remote participation in the 2020 cr uise. We will also report on the work conducted on board and preliminary re sults.
Speakers are Rafael (Rafa) Go nçalves-Araujo (DTU Aqua) and Lumi Haraguchi (SYKE).
Moderation: Franziska Pausch (ARICE, AWI & APECS)
