What an amazing two weeks of fieldtrip we had with @drbradbrad.bsky.social, our @biouea.bsky.social PhD student Will Tallon and our amazing CNR colleagues from Italy. Huge thanks to #SIOS Svalbard and Norwegian Polar Institute for supporting this campaign!

WARMIC - our #SIOS Svalbard project w. @matehg.bsky.social & Marc Dumont - at the forefront of Arctic climate & soil carbon. Huge thanks to SIOS funding, Will Tallon, Emanuele Pallozzi, Olga Gavrichkova @carlottavolts.bsky.social Federica D'Alò, CNR, Dirigibile Italia & NPI Sverdrup

🌱 Just back from the Arctic! CNR-IRET researchers completed the summer mission of Beyond Soil, as part of the PhD project by @carlottavolts.bsky.social on impacts of large herbivores in C & N cycles in High Arctic tundra, with new focus on soil microbial activity, in collaboration with NPI.

Forever grateful for this kind of experience. Everytime i come here, its like the first one. Svalbard stole my heart 🌷💙 #nyalesund #svalbardislands

Always grateful for the opportunity to share, with my institute's colleagues, the results of my PhD journey! #CNRIRET #PhDpolarsciences #arctic

After Svalbard’s warmest summer on record, we have shocking winter warming underway right now in the Arctic www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Temperatures at north pole 20C above average and beyond ice melting point

Scientists say unusually mild temperatures linked to low-pressure system over Iceland directing strong flow of warm air towards north pole
