Association of Polar Early Career Scientists

 

Even though it the Polar Prediction School is taking place in April the weather can still be cold in Abisko. Expect temperatures between +5C to -10C so please bring warm clothes (hats, gloves, warm jackets, themal underwear, warm shoes, etc.). We will be spending some time outdoors for the fieldwork so it is important you are dressed accordingly. 

Sunday (22nd April) will in large part be a free day, except for launching some radio sondes. This means you will be able to take advantage of the beautiful nature around the Abisko Research Station. There are opportunities for cross-country skiing, snow-shoeing, ice-climbing, ice fishing, etc.). You may want to consider bringing some relevant equipment with you if want to - or there may be the chance to rent some equipment in Abisko.
