International Arctic Research: United on an Ice Floe

Two members of the international team will be explaining why they didn’t want to miss out on this unique opportunity and why global cooperation is required if we humans are to better understand and predict the consequences of climate change for the Arctic.

About the MOSAiC Talks

In order to really understand the Arctic, you have to go there and experience it first-hand. This is particularly true for Arctic research. We’ll be making room on our stage for the scientists and organisers of the MOSAiC expedition. They’ll tell us something about the challenges they faced, the highlights of the expedition, and their personal eureka moments during the unique experience of drifting through the heart of the Arctic Ocean. Afterwards, they’ll be available to answer questions from the audience.
