AKMA ADVANCING KNOWLEDGE OF METHANE IN THE ARCTIC-Website

INTPART-AKMA is a collaborative project including scientists from UiT in Norway and WHOI in USA. Our aim is to advance collective knowledge about methane activity in the seabed, on the seafloor and in the ocean in Arctic regions. The Arctic regions are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate changes, and methane is a highly effective climate changing gas when it reaches the atmosphere. Students from Norwegian and American institutions will have the opportunity to attend ship-based expeditions, attend courses and partake in exchanges with AKMA
