Forskaren och BBC-programledaren Helen Czerski bloggar om expeditionens första dagar på sin webbplats.
About a day and a half after beginning the journey, Oden reached the marginal ice zone, where ice begins to appear on the ocean surface. The first measurement station was here. This station will serve as a point of reference to compare with the findings near the pole.
This summer, the Arctic Ocean 2018 research expedition will study the Arctic system to better understand how it may change in the future. Researcher Helen Czerski writes about the aim of the expedition on board the icebreaker Oden.
