Two Glaciers in Greenland
Two glaciers drain from opposite sides into a narrow fjord, just south of the Petermann glacier (Petermann itself is not pictured here). Pieces of glacier that break off become mixed with thin sea ice in a jumble of ice fragments on the fjord's surface.

Glaciology Research in Western Greenland
In summer 2009, the MY Arctic Sunrise sails to the Arctic to document the dire effects climate change has on one of the most fragile environments in the world. Independent scientists use the ship, helicopter, boats and assistance of the crew, to collect data and research the impacts of climate change. During this first section of the three-part tour, scientists conduct important glaciology research on Petermann and Humboldt glaciers in Western Greenland.
