The scientists will conduct sampling and a number of experiments for four projects – DIAPOD, CHASE, Micro-ARC and PETRA – that are part of the £20 million Changing Arctic Ocean scientific research programme. The programme – funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) and the German Federal Ministry for Education and Research – seeks to understand the impacts of climate change on marine life in the Arctic. Arctic greenhouse gases The PETRA (Pathways and emissions of climate-relevant trace gases in a changing Arctic Ocean) team – led by Plymouth Marine Laboratory and GEOMAR (Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, Germany) – will use state of the art experimental approaches and computer modelling to investigate the impact of melting sea ice and exposure of the ocean’s surface on release of climate-sensitive greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. PML biogeochemist and co-lead investigator of the PETRA project, Dr Andy Rees, said, "The 4 members of the PETRA team from PML will be making their second investigation into the impact of the changing Arctic environment on the biological and chemical processes affecting the production of greenhouse gases (nitrous oxide and methane) and their release to the atmosphere. Zooplankton research on board and in the labProfessor David Pond from the Institute of Aquaculture at Stirling, who is heading up the cruise, is lead investigator on the DIAPOD project and said, "We are all excited ahead of this very important research cruise to the Arctic. As part of the DIAPOD project, we will study zooplankton – copepods, small crustaceans the size of a rice grain – which are the main source of food for fish and other species. |
