Die Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) fördert mehrere Projekte bei der MOSAiC-Expedition.

It is getting dark here at our MOSAiC ice floe. We are left with a few hours of twilight around noon and we can still see a small line of orange light when the weather is clear. Thus, we are becoming more and more accustomed to working in the dark. It was important that we were able to set up most parts of the ice camp and establish our pre-planned safety routines when we still had some day light left. We are using big spotlight beams of Polarstern to support work on the ice and in particular to illuminate the areas around us to support polar bear guards.

Lernen aus dem Klimawandel: Wie entsteht die "Arktische Verstärkung?"

Das Langzeitforschungsprojekt "Arctic Amplification", kurz (AC)³, bestehend aus mehreren thematischen Clustern, befasst sich mit "Klimarelevanten Atmosphären- und Oberflächenprozessen und Rückkoppelungsmechanismen."
