Teaching on land and at sea
Ever wondered how research is done at sea? Our oceanography students get to learn about various instruments on a cruise with the research vessel Electra. Read the report here!
The ORIGIN sounding rocket project studies a light phenomenon in the Earth´s middle atmosphere called “airglow” (dayglow during the day; nightglow at night). Between November 16 and 30 (2025), one sounding rocket will be launched from Esrange Space Center in northern Sweden to investigate these emissions.
Linus Magnusson from ECMWF, the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, is appointed Adjunct Professor at MISU on 10 percent, from 1 September. He will e.g. supervise Master degree projects, do Arctic research related to forecast evaluation and model/observation improvements, support planning and forecasting during Arctic campaigns, and some preparation of course material.
Vicent Doñate Felip and Lorenzo Luca Donati are two of the five doctoral students from Stockholm University who participated in the research school on the icebreaker Oden in the Arctic, in August and September.
The research school onboard the research ice breaker Oden has come to an end. In the evening the day before yesterday we did our last research station and deployed a mooring in the marginal ice zone, where the pack ice meets in the open ocean; a permanent buoy under the the surface that is tethered to the ocean floor and will stay there for the next years.
