A lone scientist appears tiny, working on a remote ice floe, high in the Arctic at 80 degrees north. Together with his colleagues he was dropped off there by a small helicopter, launched from an icebreaking ship -the Arctic Sunrise, which is owned, crewed and operated by Greenpeace. Together the researchers hope to gather data about the floe, which will add to our understanding about the dynamics of sea ice in the Arctic Ocean. The team consists of two sea ice specialists from Cambridge University and an architect from UCL in London who is attempting to make revolutionary three-dimensional scans of sea ice structures, particularly pressure ridges.
