SWERUS-C3 2014 ExpeditionSwedish – Russian – US Arctic Ocean Investigation of Climate-Cryosphere-Carbon Interactions – The SWERUS-C3 Program.
VEGA 2013 Expedition log... Strong gale force winds in the morning and rain. Not at all good for our so-called patch test, for which calm sea is preferable.
JEBEL goes to Saudi Arabia – 2012... JEBEL and the Saudi Geological Survey host a 600 km crustal transect across the Saudi Arabian shield involving c. 20 international scientists, post-docs and PhD students.
Taimyr – 2012... The river has dropped and the crossing is easy. Work is fantastic – we see the best exposures of folded limestone yet. This makes all our trials and tribulations worth it!
LOMROG III Lomonosov Ridge off Greenland – 2012 ... This morning, the hovercraft Sabvaabaa materialized out of the fog again: we have our second rendezvous with Yngve and Gaute here at about 84 N at the Gakkel Ridge.
Les Eyzies excursion – 2011... The new and beautiful museum at Les Eyzies, which opened in 2004 contains detailed information on the archaeology in and around Les Eyzies...
In Swedish | Field trip of the course "Volcanoes of the world" August – 2011... Huvudmålet för dagen är Nordeste, den absolut äldsta delen av ön, över fyra miljoner år gammal. Här får vi avnjuta en hängiven föreläsning av Alasdair där han med stort engagemang och pedagogisk finess visar hur man klassificerar magmatiska bergarter.
Excursion to Iceland – 2011... Tens of kilometres long, several meters wide and more than 10 meters deep – this was one of the most impressive geological features I had ever seen.
Field trip to Islay – 2011... Vi fortsatte vidare till den närbelägna hamnen i Port Askaig där vår mycket entusiastiska professor Alasdair förklarade att såväl korn som lagringar i berg inte alltid är små till storleken.
Thailand Monsoon Project 2010... One more lake has proven to be unsuitable since all sediments had been removed by dredging, as in many of the other lakes we visited earlier.
Cave reconnaissance in southern Thailand – 2010... Visiting the caves of southern Thailand not only means beautiful stalactites and stalagmites, but also exciting meetings with snakes, bats, darkness and high humidity.
Pilot Coring in Southern Taiwan – 2010... After constructing an improvised bamboo platform to reinforce the original one, we went back out on the lake to a new coring position closer to the wetland.
Lomonosov Ridge off Greenland – LOMROG II 2009... Today we started coring! The first core on top of the Lomonosov Ridge was a success. We managed to land a over 5 m long piston core which we hope will reveal many secrets about the evolution of ice and ocean in this part of the world.
Follow icebreaker /Oden/ on the LOMROG expedition 2007... This was the day when /50 Let Pobedy/ had to depart from us to go back to Murmansk. She certainly departed in a ceremonial style, passing us very close while playing out load Russian classical music. It has been a good two weeks of collaboration between the two icebreakers.
