Earlier this month, UNB associate professor of earth sciences Dr. Audrey Limoges shared with us her first day aboard CCGS Amundsen, as she embarked on a month-long science expedition with the ship's crew and scientists from across Canada.
Want to know what happened after that first polar bear encounter?
Here, Limoges shares some highlights from the expedition, including successfully recovering an extraordinary sediment core sample that could reveal the region's hidden history, a second polar bear encounter, a breathtaking Zodiac trip to the face of Otto Fiord Glacier, and the chance to observe delicate star and flower-shaped patterns etched into newly formed sea ice.
