Time for a new Swedish Antarctic expedition
During this year's Antarctic expedition DML 2023/24, the researchers seek to answer how Antarctica will develop in a future with a warmer climate. Part of the answer lies in the bedrock and erratics deposited by the ice sheet.
12 people participate in the expedition, three of whom are researchers.
