Multidisciplinary Arctic Program (MAP) - Last Ice : science logistics meeting report, spring 2018 field campaign / B. Lange and C. Michel.: Fs97-4/3156E-PDF

"The Last Ice Area (LIA) is the only Arctic region that is expected to retain summer sea ice until 2050. Due to the importance of this region, Fisheries and Oceans Canada has initiated the Multidisciplinary Arctic Program (MAP) – Last Ice Science Program, to characterize the ecosystem of the LIA. This region is one of the most inaccessible regions in the world and therefore is lacking baseline ecological knowledge. One of the main difficulties of working in the LIA relates to logistical constraints of accessibility and sampling in a multiyear ice environment. Thus, logistical planning is of utmost importance for the success of such a campaign. This report summarizes discussions concerning the logistical planning for the 2018 Spring MAP-Last Ice field campaign and, to a lesser extent subsequent field campaigns"--Abstract, p. iv.
