Current Research

setting up and operating remote weather stations at places such as Isachsen, Mould Bay, Stefansson Island, Rea Point plus a few to be named. Data is acquired via Campbell Scientific data loggers and GOES transmitters - for real time data. A secondary function is to deploy ice beacons on the permanent ice pack NW of Eureka. This is a joint effort between the U of Washington Polar Research Lab, and the Institute of Ocean Sciences. The buoys are supplied and my crew does the deployment. The data are used for meteorology and oceanography.
