Description
The expedition was carried out by the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in collaboration with the Swedish Polar Research Secretariat. OATRC 2013 was a project associated with Sustainable Arctic Marine and Coastal Technology (SAMCoT), which is a centre for research-based innovation, initiated by the Research Council of Norway and hosted by NTNU. OATRC 2013 was a follow-up to last year’s expedition to this region.
Purpose:
The main scientific scope of the research expedition was:
Collection of data necessary to build, calibrate and validate models for:
floaters in ice, ice management operations, iceberg/sea ice drift, ice/met/ocean statistics, evaluation of new technologies and environmental research.
