Polar Climate

The Polar Climate Programme, led by Dr. Jan-Gunnar Winther, excels in research that involves both modern processes and long time-series. The studies encompass topics such as ocean fluxes of heat, mass and salt; atmosphere/sea-ice/ocean interactions; paleoclimatic archives (marine sediment and ice cores) and radiation, glacier mass balance and snow distribution. The programme contributes to the global understanding of climate change.
