IGS Global Seminar Series #6: Wednesday 27th May: Jack Kohler, Norwegian Polar Institute, Tromso

 

"Twenty years of Svalbard fieldwork: a couple of 100 gigatons of ice, lots of surges, two polar bears and one pandemic later"

 

Please register in advance for the seminars - it seems that you can't register during the seminar itself, but if you have already registered you should be able to use the same link as last week (check and if it doesn't work, just re-register). Once you have registered please check the link (you should see the waiting room I think). Any issues drop me an email and I'll try and help. There's a short question to answer - please tell me enough to accept you! I'll be doing that manually, so just be kind and make it obvious... (I'm a PhD student with X... or whatever). Using your work email would make my life really easy.
