Firstly, it [...] from the Fram Strait is finding its way under their ice tongues, melting them from below. We’re currently studying the 79° North Glacier to determine how this warm water travels from the Fram Strait to [...] the Fram Strait, which is roughly 300 km wide. It measures the temperature, flow speed and salinity of the inflowing and outflowing water masses, 365 days a year. “At the water’s surface, the Fram Strait’s
