Glaciers and permafrost create freshwater flows on the Svalbard seafloor, changing water and sediment chemistry. Scientists showed how our frozen landscape affects the hidden world at the bottom of fjords filled with unique and rarely seen animals.
The presenters were Beata Szymczycha (Associate Professor at Polish Academy of Sciences), Wei Li Hong (Associate Professor at Stockholm University), Sophie ten Hietbrink (PhD candidate at Stockholm University) and Arunima Sen (Associate Professor at UNIS).
